Method for accepting science

Av I have the helmet of salvation the breastplate of righteousness. The sword of the word the shield of faith. The belt of truth and my feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace.

We won't need our armor in Heaven !!!!!!!

Amen, bro!

When people want us to set our Bibles aside (the Sword), then hit us with their sword (science), we should hold our shields up (faith).

I have faith that science is wrong, when science disagrees with the Bible.

I had a friend who was into World of Warcraft who used to talk like that.

Did he reverence the sun as creator of the earth and creator and sustainer of the life on it?

You know, you make your standpoint sound like a really embarrassing D&D session.

Please stop.

That said, to continue with the WoW reference above. The Bible is a Tier 1 Sword where as Science is Tier 10.

Ephesians 6:10 ¶ Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

As I said, 100% is not up for debate.
I'd give you credit for me not remembering
90% or even 95% of the "failures"

The thing about not remembering failures is that you don't remember that you don't remember.

Refuting sea level rise in North Carolina from WUWT. This is a review of a recent paper.


John Droz Jr. asked me to comment on the Sallenger et al (2012) paper Hotspot of Accelerated Sea Level Rise on the Atlantic Coast of North America. As you’ll recall, John Droz Jr. has reported on pending North Carolina legislation about rising sea level. Refer to the WattsUpWithThat posts here and here. Apparently, North Carolina lawmakers are concerned about the use of the word “accelerated” in Sallenger et al (2012). So I took an initial look at the sea level data for the Atlantic Coast “Hotspot”.

The shift in trends around 1990 noted in Sallenger et al (2012) appears to be a function of the natural variability of the North Atlantic.

In fact, Sallenger et al (2012) in their closing comments state that this is a possibility, but it was impossible for them to tell due to the limited availability of data

Of course its summer. We set a lot of cold records too this winter.

Where I live the hottest summer days were around 1914. ( they had very hot summer too but probably didn't know too much about global warming in the early 1900's.)

And where was that? Great Cloud Fantasy land?

Climate Highlights — Winter Season (December 2011-February 2012)
Warmer-than-average temperatures dominated the northern and eastern regions of the country in December, January and February, leading to the fourth warmest winter on record for the contiguous United States. The winter season was also drier than average for the Lower 48, with dry conditions experienced across the West and the Southeast but wetter-than-average conditions in the Central and Southern Plains and parts of the Ohio Valley.

The average contiguous U.S. temperature during the December-February period was 36.8 degrees F, 3.9 degrees F above the 1901-2000 long-term average — the warmest since 2000. The precipitation averaged across the nation was 5.70 inches, 0.78 inch below the long-term average.

Warmer-than-average temperatures were widespread with twenty-seven states in the Northern Plains, Midwest, Southeast and Northeast having winter temperatures ranked among their ten warmest. Only New Mexico had winter temperatures below its 20th century average.

Yes, confirmation bias is a powerful tool for establishing what you want to be true.

Only if it's partially true.
100% is the same as science uses to confirm facts.
Being in the science field most of my career, I'm
well aware of how bias can effect conclusions
and even outcomes in the laboratory. There is no
need for you to explain poor lab work, bias, and fraud.

 

[SkyWriting]

I know, you use the Heartland Institute and other like-wise non science sources. And please don't cite Fred Singer again, he's been incorrectly saying were in a cooling cycle for over 20 years. 98% of practicing climate scientists agree that GW is real and due to anthropogenic sources. Get your head out of the sand and look at the scientific literature for once.

Expert credibility in climate change

Not one scientist claims that global warming is caused by man.
No not one.
There are many who agree that we have added to the natural high cycle.

 

[Davian]

No, science does not do 100%. It is always open to falsification.

well aware of how bias can effect conclusions
and even outcomes in the laboratory. There is no
need for you to explain poor lab work, bias, and fraud.

Perhaps you were just fortunate to work in a place where you were not required to explain your poor lab work, bias, and fraud.
