I get this; however, that doesn't make your position on GW correct.
This makes no sense. If you're not trying to imply that I'd abuse my power, what possible relevance does my position on this board have with debating me?
Lastly there is substantial evidence against man made global warming or at leat minimal and more and more scientists are coming out to say so, yet many are not due to fear. Why should they be afraid to speak their opinion? Why are their careers being threatened, why are they attacked? Ask yourself, who stands to loose significantly should lack of man made GW be exposed? Getting this right is hugely important to the worlds economies. Too much political and financial gain, I believe is skewing things.
It's simply not true that "there is substantial evidence against man made global warming." But to the extent anyone here thinks they have any such evidence, discussion of that is welcome here. But if I or someone else presents arguments refuting that evidence that's also part of the welcome discussion. Presenting refutations is not the same as suppressing evidence.
What is not allowed by the rules of this site is straying from direct discussion of facts and evidence to speculations or assertions about political motivations.
Lastly, I respect you X-Y-No and your opinion. It would be nice if GW'ers gave equal respect and tolerance for differing view points with out the hype, fear, intimidation and absolutist thinking to get to get to the actual science. people don't respond well to 5 alarm fire, sky is falling mentallity. History is chalked full of mistakes when people respond to this mentality.
Serious discussion of facts and evidence are worthy of respect and I maintain that they get it here. What is not worthy or respect is repetition of false and refuted claims.
