Almost everyone has
one or more beliefs
that were NOT created
with facts, data and logic.
Those beliefs
can not be changed
with facts, data and logic.
Some of the beliefs
Some of the beliefs
I can think of are:
Santa Clause
The Tooth Fairy
Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq
Donald Trump Colluded With Russians
The 2020 US Election was the most honest in history
Heaven and Hell
Life After Death
God
The Coming Climate Crisis,
etc.
These beliefs are based on faith,
and sometimes on fake news.

appeared to have started with Roger
Revelle, a oceanographer, back in 1957.
The climate crisis is always "coming",
but never arrives !
Rather than always wrong wild guesses
about the future climate, you'd think that
people would "study" their own experience
LIVING WITH with actual global warming
in the past 45 years.
Mild harmless global warming.
Nothing like the rapid,
dangerous global warming
predicted since 1957.
Most affecting high (cold)
latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere, mainly during the six coldest months
of the year, and mainly at night.

So we might as well
will change their beliefs.
So we might as well
ridicule their beliefs,
and make jokes

about their absurd fear
of carbon dioxide.
