Global Warming, or rather Global Climate Change as it's now called, is a theory. The Earth's temperature is cyclic. It has been much hotter than it is now, and it has been cooler too. When the ice receded at the end of the last ice age, was that global warming too? I mean, things got warmer right?

By your logic, the fact that Billions of dollars are spent studying the bible must make it the word of God. Amen brother!
He is the one that stated that since scientists received grants for it, it must be a hoax. I simply asked if this was the case for other scientific research that receives a lot of money in grants. You can replace cancer with any other scientific field that takes in research money if you like.

I have no opinion on global warming. I just think it's silly to call every scientist who takes research money a fraud.
