You don't have to be religious to understand that in the west the third day could relate to resurection. This is not a religious fanatic concept. It is just as much a cultural concept drawn from our societal history. So I can see how a sailor could easily see their sailboat as resurection. A new life.

The third day may on the other hand speak of the last 1/3 rd of a person's life. Again setting sail and living onboard their sailboat could well speak of the 3rd party of their life.

Now let's deal with anti religious bigotry by some in science. Science doesn't mean atheism. Many great scientists including Einstein intellectually accepted the existence of a creator.

Attacking a person because they use a quote from the old testament is to sink to a very low level indeed. The quote was in fact very wise. Only those who don't love thinking would attack such a quote.

Perhaps the world itself should have a new Third Day. A resurection of sorts from the old mindsets and ways of thinking. A world where we come together in honesty to solve problems. A world freed from the politically powerful who use mass manipulation of even science to achieve their perverse goals.

For me the most offensive thing about AGW is the manipulation of research. Dishonesty in science is deplorable. It is the falsifying of records, the unscientific recording of measurements and intellectual Dishonesty used to try and win a debate that I abhor to my core.

So. Can someone explain how, if I put water in my freezer it turns to ice over time. If I then now take the ice out of the freezer, put it in a glass and leave it out in the warm sun, it soon turns to water. I understand this from a scientific view so I really don't need an explanation.

What I don't understand is how the climate can be warming in the Antarctic while at the same time the ice extant is increasing?

That's a false comparison.
A more accurate comparison to this thread and the discussion herein would be if the social gathering was for the purpose of discussing a topic. You don't go to a 7 year old B-day party and break out into prose about the scourge around child sex slavery or child hunger while singing happy birthday and eating cake. If someone is talking to you and asks you a question about a topic sure, you answer, but you don't bring up the MMGWC unless asked about it.

But that's not what's happening here. The thread IS about MMGW and the discussion is clearly about is it a true scientific occurrence or is it a fraud, a Scam...or as I believe a Cult. Now in this setting, where opinions are asked for it's absolutely appropriate to express your personal opinions...isn't that the entire point.

Now you may be insinuating that it's in poor taste to call someone a MMGW Cultist, you can make that argument, but be aware that at the same time then however, you would of course have to argue that it is in poor taste to call people MMGW Deniers...right...of course you would, but you haven't.

You say that it's polite to steer clear of Religion and Politics, however the entire MMGWC movement is attempting to use Politics to push their agenda. That's a nice way to silence critics (almost as good as threatening jail and prosecution) but sorry Amigo, you can't use political correctness as a weapon, your feelings don't trump our political rights or expression.

As a Scientist myself, that's what sickens me the most as well, because when you can't trust Science, you can't trust anything in society. Science deals with what is True, what is Provable and Testable...but when it turns into a Cult and starts pushing an agenda other than Truth, it becomes a dangerous monster that was once used by American Progressives to advocate for forced sterilizations and eugenics of the master race by getting rid of undesirables. Hitler didn't come up with his master race concept by himself...he learned about it from American Progressives!
Now we have the same Progressive Movement using the Scam of Climate Change to get what they have always wanted...control of the Populace by the Elites...aka...them.

If this sounds new to you, then I would suggest you are a poor student of History (made so intentionally by the Progressives who control the Public Indoctrination System AKA Public Schools) and have some studying up on the Progressive movement, which was/is just another Cult.

Ecclesiastes 1:9 sums it up nicely:
What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;
there is nothing new under the sun

[[As a hint, you can also send the left/progressives/MMGWC into a tizzy by tossing in a biblical quote...almost like garlic to a vampire, it drives them nuts even if the said quote has self evident Truth in it...the fact that it's from the Bible sends them off the deep end. See the discussion on successfully Trolling for additional reference and context]]

I've posted both of these links before, but since you are part of that proud group that is not interested in what scientific research has to say on the topic, it is probably a waste of time to post them again.

Here's an interesting thought experiment, which actually has a bearing on the sea ice question:

If you put fresh-water ice cubes in a glass, then fill the glass full with salt water and let the ice cubes melt, will the water in the glass go down, will it remain the same, or will it overflow the glass?

Gentlemen and ladies.
We have started deleting personal attack posts.
Any more and the thread will be toast and the posters rewarded according to the rules.

Re: Do we need to be preparing for Arctic cruising strategies because of Global Cooli

Being an online moderator is a thankless job, I'm one for several other sites and it's a true dammed if you do/damned if you don't. So thanks for keeping us Children from playing with matches in the middle of the street.


What I find fascinating, both here and on FakeBook, is how the populace in general says they don't like negative political attack type ads. But I've come to the conclusion that people simply Lie to the Pollsters in order to give them what they "think" is the correct "politically correct answer" to not be thought of as a Neanderthal or worse...Trump supporter. Going negative, ducking the real issue and going after the people personally is as old as time...and the Voters (and maybe CF Members) must like it because they reward those that do it with electoral victories and participate in it themselves here on CF and FakeBook all the time.

Now back to the Teak Deck Project for me...my son graduates from High school after this school year and then my long banishment to the USA is over and I'm heading back to Mexico. So I gotta get my boat list done! Or on second though if HiLiary or El Trumpo wins in November, maybe I will just head South early. This years Presidential election is the Republic's Kobayoshi Maru Test.

It's a shame that some who destroyed another thread came over to this thread to cause havic. The back and for the of discussion on this topic was healthy and even entertaining. Then came the trolls.

I wish you and your family well in your southern journeys. That cat pic by the was so cute.

It's not restricting free speech to ask people not to inflict a topic on a sailing forum where it's neither friendly nor relevant. It's respect and consideration. If those two things aren't too 'socialist' as concepts.

I haven't started a MMGW Thread and as you should know as a participant in internet chat forums, once a thread is created it takes on a life of its own. Have you answered your own question? Why must the MMGWC post their beliefs on a Cruising site? Ah...now you get it...because we can and that's what freedom of expression is all about. Sharing opinions and being entertained with your friends. What...you want me to talk MMGW on a Quilting Forum...what do I have in common with them as a basis of the discussion? Here we are all the same...boaters Cruisers and I have an affinity for all and would take the shirt off my back for them as fellow boaters/cruisers so why wouldn't I and others want to talk and have fun with family?

Now personally I don't find any speech or opinion offensive, that's what really being Tolerant is all about, being open to listening to and hearing all points of view, remember. I also don't mind being called anything under the sun...see I'm secure enough in knowing the science and facts that it doesn't threaten me or upset me to be called a Denier...hater...you pick the insult de jour. Sticks and Stones...and I take it even further. I run a Business...I sell things to Cruisers, but does that mean I don't speak honestly and give my opinions even when/if they might piss others off and make them not buy something form me? No...Truth is truth and if it costs me product sells...well so what. See I have more to lose in speaking truth to the MMGWC than almost anyone else here...but still I stand on Truth.

The MMGWC operates like a school of bait fish. There is not one head giving commands or sending out a newsletter. The Cult gets direction from the others and follows the lead. It's how cults and movements work. It's also what makes them dangerous because there is no free thought, but only mass obedience to the whole and if you step out of line the sharks picks you off. just as every political movement has agendas and goals so does the MMGWC movement, and to deny it is to be so deep into it that the follower has lost his ability to see and report on reality as it. We try to throw them a Rope to pull them out of the Pit...but you can lead a horse to water...you know the rest.

No one is forcing anyone to read or participate in this thread. In fact you can un-follow it and never see the radical free speech and ideas that happen here. It's a personal weakness to not like something and to complain about it, but then to participate in it anyway. As a very active participant and sudden critic of this thread...don't you see the irony in your positions? The MMGWC are attacking and threatening prosecution for Denier positions and beliefs..that my friend is pure Evil. You don't win an argument by killing, locking up or threatening the opposition, you win by convincing people that your argument, data and Science is correct. Those that dislike open discussion the most are those with things to hide.

Opps...Saturday pick up not needed from Football pratice...off I gooooo

Re: Do we need to be preparing for Arctic cruising strategies because of Global Cooli

It's been amazing to me on this thread how the GW believers (non-scientist) argue and belittle actual scientist (non-believers)
I see a lot of graphs here supporting GW, but they only show the last 150 years, which is not even a blink. Here is one that goes back a bit further. The the little red part is the famous Hockey Stick, as you can see it is quite meaningless. If you actualy dig a little deeper and go back millions of years you will find that high co2 is a RESULT of warming not the cause.

Re: Do we need to be preparing for Arctic cruising strategies because of Global Cooli

If you really want to get to the truth ----- Follow the MONEY

Here is a great video of scientist and professors explaining that if you don't follow the GW ideals you won't get funding
