I'd believe that he thought it was good for him to shoot himself in the head and that his opinion that it's not good for others may still be valid. Can't you even produce a hypothetical that contains cognitive dissonance? Maybe you need to check the definition.

That process obviously must be very satisfying for you in some way, but I'll just have to slag along evaluating the merit of ideas according to their own particular cases and inherent characteristics, sometimes not reaching a primary conclusion at all.
Blah, blah, blah, a lot of hot air just to say you disagree with me without actually believing in the basis of your disagreement. Pathetic but typical; you stand for nothing and are against people who stand for anything.

Can't understand your own writing huh? Not suprising, your ability to understand anything seems severely impared.

Have any quotes to support that? My actual opinion is it's not a big deal and the people getting scared by that information are weak-minded idiots.

That may be what it seems like to your warped mind but it really is that scumbag politicians are scaring all you clueless, gullible lackeys with predictions of doom and gloom if great restrictions aren't put on the rest of humanity; all while they make extraordinarily hypocritical violations of those proposed restrictions themselves.

That global warming is alarmism and stupid and thought up by manipulative hypocrites isn't evidence pertaining to your premise, but that seems to be all you got.
That's all I really claim to have. You do seem capable of understanding my opinion after all.

Lack of evidence for one thing is not evidence for another. You're still just chattering about your beliefs like a little monkey.
So now you're taking my position. Only you would argue against both sides of a debate without taking either side yourself.
