I came up with this debate topic after talking to some people who believe that there are major climate-changes coming our way that could have a devastating impact for life on Earth.
Are weather patterns a major concern?

In a word, NO. Everyone talks about the weather and overhypes it….it's a lot like fishing stories….
Well I'm from New York City and the weather is getting crazy over here. High temperatures and unexpected temperature changes are a major problem. I think something is up.
Do you think it is an anti-Obama conspiracy run by those nasty mean spirited Conservatives who do not believe in Al Huggatree Gore's "Convenient Lie" movie?(like me)
Or could it be the normal course of how weather is just not predictable and never will be?
Just asking.
Being a guy who upon occasion likes to go out into the ocean in a fairly small sail boat, I took many a weather class, almost enough to become a meteorologist.
What did I learn? Other than to recognize certain changes in weather patterns, I learned that weather is, has been, and always will be unpredictable. Pure and simple.
Should we be concerned about it? Why? There ain't nothing we can do to control it, so all we need to do is check with the weather guru's every so often and carry an umbrella when the need arises.
Just my not-so-humble opinion. B)
Yeah whatever is going on, it is not normal.
Listen, I hate to bring the Bible into this, because you’ll wet your pants in closed-mindedness, but the Bible does speak of these things.
Matthew 24:6-8
And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows
So do any of these sound familiar?
Really? That's your input?
Holy crap Pusty, using the bible as a prophecy towards the future should practically be considered witchcraft. That ranks right up there with Nostradamus. The weathers nuts because the bible said so? Wake me when the first born of every household without lambs blood on the door is slain…. or when the armies of the dead number 200 thousand million… or when the angel blow his horn and the seventh seal is….. yawn.
where is the proof?
Yep.
That's what we been doing for the past three thousand years or so.
Unless you ain't been paying attention . . . B)
Boy did I call the close mindedness or what. Do you really like living in your little world so much you won’t even consider anything that may change it? I gave you that much in previous arguements LT.
pusty you won't look past the borders of the bible. Do you actually not realize that you are the close-minded one? You tried to explain current weather conditions with a 2000 year old tome of ethical stories.
I am open-minded to well defined logical points. If you cited an article that stated weather patterns were cyclical and this current patch of strange weather was a passing phase I'd read your article and digest its content. If you'd seen a discovery channel documentary that said the worlds climate was warming and causing weather patterns to change because of gulf stream effects I'd watch it.
But you quoted a fictional book of stories written to teach man a lesson on morals. It's not even the farmers almanac, which hey, might actually have detailed data on the weather patterns.
Close-minded? Try again.
Did you not hear about Bill Gates' current attempt?
Who are you talking to pt447?
Where in any of that does it discuss a significant increase in catastrophic storms that are killing the lives of many innocent people? Anywhere?
I'm really finding it hard to keep track of who you both are talking to.
I was talking to pusty.
No point being open minded those occultic literature can’t prove a point about weather change. Since Lord Tiberivs beating around the bush without proving it. Did you know Nostradamus at the location causes him to hallucinate to see visions that doesn’t mean he get the true prophecies.
