Krauthammer derives his wealth from corporate sources which have a vested interest in the propaganda that convinces people the science related to global warming isn't accurate.

Krauthammers facts depend on the source of his income unlike the pure and pristine scientists who get their income directly or indirectly from gummit.

Glad we settled that.

What happens if we apply Pascal's wager to climate change?

I think the salient point here is that GW adherents, including Keith and others here, allot not just data, probabilities, and standard deviations to the matter but a heavy dosage of "belief" in a sense that is beyond science. Those who disagree or fail to share the same degree of adherence are "deniers" or unbelievers.

Krauthammer ought to be someone that the GW crowd appreciates, since he says "I’ve long believed that it cannot be good for humanity to be spewing tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere." But because he scoffs at the models that predict the future scores of years in the future, he is just another denier.

Here, it comes out as just another iteration of the "you can't be a good Christian and not believe in GW." Yawn.
