Torcello = Torquemada
The Climate Change Inquisition has a new enforcer and demands that “deniers” be jailed. How ‘bout we throw in a little torture too? In the new Auto da Fe the deniers will be forced to watch Al Gore speeches 24/7 until they get their minds right.
The Inquisitor Torcello is well qualified, being an Assistant Professor of Philosophy and well schooled in the “Will to Power”.
“Global warming” is the conduit being used by the Left to make the United States a quasi socialist country. The goal is to severely limit free enterprise as well as personal freedom. Rules, regulations, edicts all issued by nameless bureaucrats and commissars in the name of “global warming”.
Even Galileo got off with just house arrest for denying the Ptolemaic version of the solar system.
Of course they have to lie. It comes natural to them. They can’t help it
Global warming is nothing more than a shakedown racket, plain and simple.
It has absolutely nothing to do with science, and eveything to do with the wholesale government and business crony extortion of money from the people and industry. It’s just another tax, and a bar to entry put up to ensure a total energy monopoly by the vested business interests.
In other words, fascism.
A eugenic campaign to rid the world of communism and its Leftist utopian droolers is one somewhat harsh but reasonable correction to restart human progress...
I'd like to pretend I'm just kidding, but after 50 years of listening to Democrat spewed hatred, ditches filled with dead Gorebots seems to be strangely attractive.
To be perfectly honest, assistant professors of philosophy have to do something once they’ve failed to raise outrage over campus parking or the political correctness of the team mascot. I’m guessing there are a few assistant professors of climatology out there who have a better case of jailing this clown for professional negligence than he does for them.
The article says Larry is a professor of philosophy, which of course qualifies him to bloviate on pseudo science. He looks more like a propmaster of porno flicks, which qualifies him to be a fluffer.
the news media and climate scientists predicted the ice caps would be melted by now.WRONG!
Scientists say there was more ice on the ocean then than in any time in recorded satellite history.
Now there's more ice at South Pole than ever (So much for global warming thawing Antarctica!)

Lawrence Torcello received his Ph.D. in Philosophy from the University at Buffalo in 2006. His research interests include ethical theory and applied ethics, social and political philosophy, moral pluralism, and skepticism. His current projects investigate the practical consequences and ethical responsibilities implicit to democratic citizenship in morally diverse societies, particularly in the domains of medicine, education, animal welfare, the environment, public policy, and political discourse. Dr. Torcello’s recent work pursues the moral implications of global warming denialism, as well as other forms of science denialism.
“To be perfectly honest, assistant professors of philosophy have to do something once they’ve failed to raise outrage over campus parking or the political correctness of the team mascot.”
I agree. This is a “Hey, look at me” piece. But on the bright side, for him, he can embellish his resume claiming a “published” article.
And in the Seventies Time magazine said it was Global Cooling that was going to destroy all of us in twenty years.
Just another reason to keep a good stock of “B, B, and B”.
On the evidence, he should be fired for rank incompetence and no understanding of academic freedom, whatsoever.
What is the difference between his approach to academic freedom and Stalin’s and Hitler’s.
Snork! Yeah. In a peer-reviewed journal.
Thanks.
That figures, just a clown who couldn’t pass College Algebra trying to make BS extrapolations into dogma.
The return of the Inquisitors.
first the climate scientists and media say “they are scientists so listen to them you little people when scientists say global warming will destroy the planet”. so we little Republicans say “no i have an independent mind and can fact check your ass on the Internet now and i see global warming is a hoax” . so then the scientists like this moron say “jail any who disagree with me”
He’s not a Professor.
