Scientific Fraud

[killersheep]

Come on Killer, his data is either right or its wrong. His religious convictions are irrelevant. I'm not disputing global warming. It has been happening since the last ice age ended and happened before that as well. But the statement that the science is settled on how much human behavior has on it is unequivocally not settled. Damn near every model for AWG has been wrong. Damn near every prediction has been wrong. If I used data to create a predictive model and was wrong 98% of the time you'd either tell me my data was wrong, the theory behind my model was flawed or a combination of both. You'd be right and I should go back to square one. That is what the world's climate science community needs to do.

No, there is relevance he has signed a statement that says

"WHAT WE DENY
We deny that Earth and its ecosystems are the fragile and unstable products of chance, and particularly that Earth’s climate system is vulnerable to dangerous alteration because of minuscule changes in atmospheric chemistry. Recent warming was neither abnormally large nor abnormally rapid. There is no convincing scientific evidence that human contribution to greenhouse gases is causing dangerous global warming.
We deny that alternative, renewable fuels can, with present or near-term technology, replace fossil and nuclear fuels, either wholly or in significant part, to provide the abundant, affordable energy necessary to sustain prosperous economies or overcome poverty.
We deny that carbon dioxide—essential to all plant growth—is a pollutant. Reducing greenhouse gases cannot achieve significant reductions in future global temperatures, and the costs of the policies would far exceed the benefits.
We deny that such policies, which amount to a regressive tax, comply with the Biblical requirement of protecting the poor from harm and oppression."

Which implies bias, the data is the same for everyone, the predictive model is what needs to be changed. We agree on pretty much everything really except for this one thing. When you have given up falsifiability, you have given up the scientific method. The editor in chief resigned because he allowed the paper to be published under his watch.
