Strangely enough I reckon that everyone else feels the same exasperation with your arguments.

Clinging to the attack on Scientific proof is a red herring. We get it, proof, in this context is 100% sure, which we're not, so I used the word consensus which seems to give us more of a ....... consensus.

So lets tackle two more useful words, 'doubt'.

If you don't have proof then, as demonstrated on this thread and in most contexts you have doubt.

This brings me to the second word 'religion'.

'Doubt', 'proof', belief', all words often associated with religion and look where religion has got us.

I would characterise 'climate change' as a new form of religion. In as much we are expected to not only believe without proof but also change our behaviour to suit the beliefs of the religion.

Climate Change religion even has its own new 10 commandments, thou shall not covert your neighbours central heating, though shall not worship the false god of fossil fuel etc. etc.

Can we expect the climate change inquisition in due course???? I think that's what we're all afraid of, more than the effects of climate change itself.
