Let the record show that I warned you and all others like you. Please feel free to repeat your views on my Global Warming Thread. I am betting you are afraid to!

It is hard to believe isn't it?

I love it so!

I am pleased to report that this thread has reached 54 comments, providing wonderful publicity for my Prescribed Evolutionary Hypothesis while simultaneously exposing the Darwinian hoax and its most vocal advocate, Pharyngula Zed Myers, the nastiest potty mouth in cyberdumb.

It is hard to believe isn't it?

I notice that some there seem to think I am out of touch with the current literature. I can assure them that I am supremely confident that everything now being revealed, as in the past, is in perfect accord with the PEH and absolutely none of it will ever be reconciled with the Darwinian myth, the biggest joke in the history of experimental and descriptive science. I keep saying -

"It doesn't get any better than this."

But it does, it does!

I love it so!

DaveScot/David Springer, incapable of objectivity, now finds it necessary to call us alarmists "ASSHATS."

It is hard to believe isn't it?

I love it so!

Since I can't speak at UD why don't you remind your clientele there that I already turned P.Z. Myers in to the Provost of the University of Minnesota. The Provost oversees both the main University and the community college at Morris. Unfortunately the Provost chose to ignore my warnings about the erosive infuence that Myers so effectively practices. P.Z. Meyers is a dangerous compulsive ideologue and the fact that he wields such influence I find very distressing. He is far more dangerous than Dawkins who increasingly comes across as a harmless crank. Besides Dawkins has completely abandoned teaching at Oxford. Myers continues to pollute everyone he reaches, both in an out of the classroom. He deserves all the attention we can give him.

As you spout in your typically arrogant, snotty fashion about the hot air coming from global warming alamists like Tony Blair, President Bush, John Kerry, John McCain, Tim Flannery and John A. Davison, -

it is precisely the hot humid air from the Gulf of Mexico that is the cause of the tornados, the hurricanes, the flooding, and the deaths that are now ravaging the United States. Why don't you stop making such a perfect ass of yourself. It is becoming embarrassing to me and I am sure others as well. But if you insist, don't let me stop you.

The above thread at Uncommon Descent only produced nine responses. It is becoming clear that Springer's chronic denialism is not shared by very many at Uncommon Descent. Threats, deletion and banishment are still the order of the day when Springer is the "author." It always has been. I know from experience. He has banished more "customers" than all the other "authors" combined.

I can access each of the following pages.

* Professor John A. Davison's Weblog
* John A Davison said, on February 11, 2008 at 6:09 pm

* John A. Davison homepage
* Curriculum Vitae, John A. Davison
* What it means to be an AntiDarwinian at the University of Vermont.

So much for academic freedom in the land of the free. Most faculty were apparently brought up on Orwell, Stalin, and Mao's Thought.

DLH aka David L Hagen

My blog is once again functional.

I see you are one of those who can speak here.

Why don't you register and comment on my blog instead of doing it here? Tell us all about global warming there where I have a whole thread just for that purpose.

Incidentally, vinegar is what is used in Drosophila labs to attract and drown escaped flies. I wish I could do the same with anthropogenic global warming deniers like you and DaveScot/David Springer.

I am through trying to convince anyone on either side of any of the current "debates." Scientists, and I am one, do not "debate." They discover and then publish. What have you ever published on the subjects you pontificate about? What is your legacy? Mine is on the shelves of the world's libraries right next to the works of the other real scientists that made my contributions possible.

I am through trying to attract and convert amateurs and pompous blowhards. I don't have that much time left to waste on such a fruitless activity. If my distinguished predecessors and sources had not been such perfect gentlemen, neither atheist Darwinism nor an "ID movement" would now even exist. The "ID movement" with which you identify is a waste of time. It is little more than a debating society and an outlet for unfulfilled blowhards, most of whom are so cowardly that they are afraid to even identify themselves.

Furthermore, my supporters are not even allowed to speak here so why should I pay any attention to you or DaveScot either for that matter or to anyone else who is allowed while certain others are denied? I have been isolated here just as certainly as I was at EvC and Panda's Thumb and for exactly the same reasons, reasons I will now explain.

When one rejects both camps in a senseless debate, the best thing to do with him is to give him a "Davison's Soap Box" as Wesley Elsberry did or put him in "Boot Camp" as they did at EvC or dispense with him with "Your stench has preceeded you" ala P.Z. Myers, the second biggest bully in cyberdumb. Whatever you do, don't let him speak on home turf, isolate him whatever it takes, whatever works best. There is more than one way to deal with "The Davison Problem," more than one way to "skin that cat."

As for your honey and vinegar comparison -

"First make yourself unpopular, then people will take you seriously."
Konrad Adenauer

"The only good defense is to be as offensive as possible."
John A. Davison

"Davison is the Darwinian's worst nightmare."
Terry Trainor.

I think the "Fundies" are tossing some too.

I love it so!

Give my regards to your buddies at Uncommon Descent where of course I am not allowed to speak.

In the meantime all are welcome to participate at my blog. No matter what you say it will never be edited or deleted but will stand forever as testimony to your position, if you have one to present that is. It won't even be easy to be baned, unlike all the major forums of which I am aware which has unfortunately even come to include this one. It is sad but revealing of the insecurity that is so rampant in internet communication.

I'll leave a light on for you. I am predicting you won't show.

Nosivad aka John
You do not help you cause by ad hominem attacks such as calling me an "anthropgenic global warming deniers". That is very offensive to those harmed by the holocaust etc.

I have never "denied" anthropogenic global warming and never will.

When you need friends, why make enemies?

The critical issue, is whether there is sufficient evidence to differentiate anthropogenic global warming from the climatic "noise" of the last millions of years.

See: The Sun Also Sets where Canadian researchers seek to quantify the impact of the sun on climate and area concerned over global cooling, not warming, based on historical precedent.
" . . .researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Solar Research in Germany report the sun has been burning more brightly over the last 60 years, accounting for the 1 degree Celsius increase in Earth's temperature over the last 100 years.

See also Climate Audit for a different perspective on the accuracy of the projections!

Roy Spencer on Global Warming and Nature's Thermostat for further very important parameters that may dominate the CO2 signature.

See: Henrik Svensmark's research on COSMIC RAYS AND CLIMATE. This may well explain a major portion of climate change.

When accredited researchers detail such natural parameters for alternative explanations, why should we jump on the "global warming" bandwagon?

Besides, we receive 10,000 times more solar energy than we use in fossil fuels. Why panic when companies such as are working on cost effective solution?
Besides the biggest challenge we have is not global warming but Peak Oil.
e.g. See The Oil Drum

Making and keeping the right enemies is an important feature of intellectual progress.

"I have always felt that a politician is to be judged by the animosities he excites among his opponents."
Winston Churchill

You want to see animosity? Read the way Grasse, Bateson, Berg, Goldschmidt, Broom and Schindewolf have been treated by their adversaries, Gould, Mayr, Dawkins and Provine. I am delighted to be loathed by the same herd of "prescribed" atheist, insecure lightweights that treated those six great minds with contempt, mostly by pretending that they never existed.

I have no more respect for the "IDists," who are doing little more than trying to rewrite history, than I have for the Darwinian atheists. Both camps are dominated by egomaniacal ideologues trying to achieve dominance whatever the cost. That cost, without exception, involves the isolation and muzzling of critics by whatever means necessary. I am the perfect current example.

I love it so!

"No sadder proof can be given by a man of his own littleness than disbelief in great men,"
Thomas Carlyle

I repeat my conviction that any venue which must ban its critics will never contribute anything of substance to the only thing that matters - undeniable absolute truth.

"Let my enemies destroy each other."
Salvador Dali

Amen.

Besides you have not answered my question. What are your contributions? What is your legacy? What have you placed on the shelves of the library? Do you only join with your colleague David Springer to mindlessly deny impending doom? Apparently. As I said earlier, by the end of this decade and probably sooner, anthropogenic global warming deniers will be as scarce as hen's teeth. It is not I who has his head in the sand as you have previously indicated. It is you and all others like you, pompous, denigrating, arrogant "groupthinkers," congenitally incapable of objectivity.

I notice that you make no mention of Tim Flannery, author of "The Weather Makers." None of the factors you mention are of much significance compared with the mounting evidence that steadily increasing atmospheric CO2 levels now completely dominate the world's weather. They have for a long time and there is absolutely nothing that can now be done to avert the worst disaster in history, a disaster entirely man made.

"We have known for some decades that the climate change we are now creating for the twenty-first century was of a similar magnitude to that seen at the end of the last ice age, but that it was occurring thirty times faster.... And so there has been little reason for our blindness, except perhaps an unwillingness to look such horror in the face and say 'You are my creation.'"
The Weather Makers, page 210.

"There is one impact that results from global warming, however, that is unobtrusively manifesting itself and is being felt on all continents approximately equally: All of them are shrinking. That is because, courtesy of heat and melting ice, the oceans are expanding.

Is this a threat to humanity? Let's see how far the waters will rise and at what speed."
The Weather Makers, page 141.

Not only have I been caged here where my supporters are denied but my critics freely speak, there was another revealing development concerning my position in the current "debates." As you know, the onlne journal, PCID, has been suspended and, as I understand it, Dembski has no intention to restore it. Guess who contributed to the last issue prior to the suspension. It was John A. Davison with his paper "The Case For Instant Evolution." I did not offer this paper for publication and it was published without my knowledge or approval. A slightly different version appeared in Rivista di Biologia 96: 203-206, 2003.

I also have been denied any voice at Discovery Institute where I wanted to offer commentary. These are further demonstrations of how I am being isolated from the proceedings of the elements on both sides of the "debate," a "debate" which should never have been initiated and which has no place in science. "Debates" are for debating teams which is what most internet blogs are now and always have been.

It should surprise no one that I am, to put it very mildly, disillusioned with both factions.

Salvador Dali

That sounds good to me!
