As a materialist without a supernatual entity to lean upon for "Truth", I lean on Popper's falsifiability and the scientific method (properly executed), combined with the game theoretic "treat others as you'd be treated" (also preached as Truth in your Bible - Matthew 7:12) as my Truth. I'm curious why you lumped "man-made climate change" into the dialectic bin along with gay marriage and the other cultural and political issues that surround it.

Is it that you think that the measurements supporting the climate change thesis are not sufficiently reliable that we have to rely on charlatans to provide their Meaning? Is the issue that whether it's a valid concern for men to worry about is in the dialectical realm? That by virtue of its scope, the subject is outside the realms of proper scientific speculation (we don't have another Earth to properly test our hypotheses)? Or something else?

Good thing you are not thin-skinned. If you are comfortable with your beliefs, any movements, right or left, are refinements. Stay the course.
