I said since I'm an engineer, not a climatologist, on global warming I put my trust on what the majority of scientists are saying, not the pundits.
This is what some GW denier said:
"Accepting something someone else tells you is nothing more than religion, not science."
Excuse me, but where do people in practically every profession learn their trade?
BOOKS. Now just because I put my trust on what the author/engineer wrote in my compressible fluid dynamics or spacecraft dynamics book, does not mean it is RELIGION. That is a weak argument.
Society has created a division of labor where certain people are experts in one subject, and not so much in others. When you need to get surgery done, you go to a doctor. When you want to your wisdom teeth removed, you go to a dentist, and when you want to know about the climate, you ask a climatologist.
You don't go to some ametueur armchair wannabe scientist who gets his facts from political websites.
