I really didn't want to derail this into a discussion about the reliability (or the lack of) of YEC sources yet nevertheless I'm interested in what MM thinks about post #267

Since you're referring to it, why don't you know the original was by Don Batten, not Jon Sarfati?

Don Batten is possibly among the worst of the lot. His attempt at refuting the evidence provided by dendrochronology was so bad that even YECs started criticizing it resulting it being yanked and replaced by an article by another author.

I'll definitely be adding that one in the future.

Originally posted by Darth ExecutorNowhere does he claim hurricanes are a liberal conspiracy. He does claim (accurately) that liberals will use the hurricane as "proof" of global warming.
The reality is by the present evidence scientists believe that the evidence indicates that this no evidence, at present that the frequency and intensity of Atlantic hurricanes nor East Pacific cyclones increase through the influence of global warming.
The scientific evidence, at present, the evidence supports that the frequency and intensity of tropical cyclones in the West Pacific and Indian Ocean possibly increase, but at present this is inconclusive, and scientists make no claim that there is proof of anything either way. In the past some scientists Warming seas cause stronger hurricanes, [Mega-storms are set to increase as the climate hots up. Michael Hopkin believed warmer seas generate stronger but fewer hurricanes (2006)], but recent research this case 'only possibly' holds in the West Pacific nor the Indian Ocean tropical cyclones. Even scientists that proposed this in the past never claimed there was any 'proof.'
Yes over recent years different scientist have proposed different thesis concerning the relationship, but as more data is collected their predictive models improve concerning this relationship.
Again can you cite that someone is making this claim of 'proof' at present? This is important, because scientists do not believe anything can be 'proven' by scientific evidence, and acknowledge that it is an open question concerning the relationship.

Originally posted by rogue06 View PostHe's pretty good when he sticks to his area of expertise but he wants to portray himself as some sort of polymath and that leads him into making some stupid statements. His whole take concerning Giordano Bruno in Cosmos was almost painful to watch. He wanted to make Christians look ignorant but only succeeded in making himself look that way.

About the only one I like is Phil Plait. I know him through being a member of his old Bad Astronomy forum many years ago before he became "famous" - he seems to be a pretty nice guy and doesn't speak beyond what he knows. One that I particularly don't like is Michio Kaku. The arrogance of that guy really irks me. He is as bad as Tyson.
