Facts are things proven to be true.
Cats are or are not, so we don't play with trivialities.
Facts are things proven to be true.Contrary to a certain zealously expressed opinion, from the resident religious zealot, facts either are, or are not! They do not speak for themselves(unless they are opinionated!)
We are aware of your ignorance of climate science, but how do your ideas about 1000% CO2 fit into what is presently happening given no humans were on the planet back then?I bypass the CO2 science as indeed there are greenhouse gases co2 ch4
or water
Let's drink wine to combat GW
And i am not going to repeat again that earth must have been a living superheated hell when co2 were 10 times aka 1000% higher..imagine..
I have no idea of your qualifications Mr Red, but would posit that you are not in fact a climate scientist.We are aware of your ignorance of climate science, but how do your ideas about 1000% CO2 fit into what is presently happening given no humans were on the planet back then?
You have shown that without facts, all you are left with is opinion, and even then it was not enough so you ventured into dubious assumptions.I have no idea of your qualifications Mr Red, but would posit that you are not in fact a climate scientist.
While cognizant that there are many alarmist scientists of various disciplines who dovetail rather nicely into your non scientific opinion, you clearly there are many other scientists of various disciplines related to climate study who are at odds with both yourself and alarmist scientists.
You clearly have a belief that your opinion is irrevocable, but equally clearly you areaexhibiting a humongous confirmation bias that is in no way scientific.
Additionally your penchant for immediately resorting to ad hominem argumentative fallacy shows that your opinion is rather more political and scientific.
I'm not a clinate scientist either, but I have been a consumer of various disciplines of science for quite a few decades now and I know how to read science.
Therefore your continuous claim that all are ignorant of climate science apart from you and basilio is shown to be utterly ludicrous.
That's my last word on the subject until such time as I decided to have more words on the subject, but in this arena discussion is nothing really more than a pxssing contest.
For now I am off to participate in more interesting and productive discussions.
That is merely your opinion! The only facts I can espy, are the facts of the existence of opinions!!You have shown that without facts, all you are left with is opinion, and even then it was not enough so you ventured into dubious assumptions.
Temperature, velocity, mass, distance, sound, material objects, and those many other things which are self evident.That is merely your opinion! The only facts I can espy, are the facts of the existence of opinions!!
There are opinions of what defines a fact, and there is the fact of those opinions (of that which defines a fact)!!! I challenge you to show me a fact, that is fact in, and, of itself, rather than merely someone's opinion of said fact!
Yes! I have expressed an opinion! That seems to be the only fact, of which anyone can be reasonably certain.Temperature, velocity, mass, distance, sound, material objects, and those many other things which are self evident.
The other point you make is about what it means to have a language which allows us to distinguish things.
That you have expressed an opinion is a fact. It's a neat paradox that counters your ideas.

Have a long think about what you said, and tell me if you consider it actually makes sense.Yes! I have expressed an opinion! That seems to be the only fact, of which anyone can be reasonably certain.
All else, including our opinion of our sensory impressions of our purportedly tangible reality, is in fact, only our opinion of that which we have perceived!
That question is nonsensical, so can you please rephrase it.What's the epistemology of opinion vs belief robbie ?
I am more than happy for you to comment now.Have a long think about what you said, and tell me if you consider it actually makes sense.
I will be back to it tomorrow and comment if you have not in the interim.
I am more than happy for you to comment now.
My opinion is that you, will be expressing your considered opinion (usually one of contempt for opposing views), on the content and/or issuer of same.
But hey, that's just my opinion!
Prove me wrong!!
You either know you have an experience of x, or you do not have an experience of x.All else, including our opinion of our sensory impressions of our purportedly tangible reality, is in fact, only our opinion of that which we have perceived!
Do opinions exist ?You either know you have an experience of x, or you do not have an experience of x.
If you only have an "opinion" then reality to you is meaningless.
Moreover, you cannot presume to call the expression of your opinion as a fact because it becomes contradictory.
Do opinions exist ?
In your fabricated world that is not a meaningful sense.Do opinions exist ?
Please clarify!In your fabricated world that is not a meaningful sense.
Well that nearly made me wet myself, when you think back to the bullying of Margret Court, Israel Folau, the current disruption in the streets, by a vocal minority who also have a fanatical belief that "their way, is the only way".
It is a shame these fanatical minorities, don't apply the same guidelines to their own behaviour, that they expect and even demand of others.
The reply was complete.Please clarify!
Is that a yes (i.e. opinions do exist), or a no (i.e. opinions do not exist)?
How about a straight answer , to a straightforward question, for which a simple "yes" or "no" should suffice :The reply was complete.
What is there to clarify?
Do opinions exist ?
