Denialism denies skepticism!

Those who deny climate change, evolution or other scientific matters proceed on the basis of the argument from personal incredulity, their ideology and other such woo. We skeptics proceed on the basis of  the conservation -background - of knowledge, willing to look at all the  relevant evidence and keep and open, but not credulous mind.
  As that article expostulates, climate change is real , and we must take steps to overcome it. We liberals realize that entrepreneurs and scientists can find ways to do so, and thereby also increase the number of good jobs whilst libertarians, finding collectivism everywhere, deny climate change, cringing that efforts to thwart it, harms capitalism. That is ideological drivel that so strikes at reason and -humanity.
  So, the denialists cherry pick the evidence, ignoring evidence and making up evidence and misinterpret evidence.
    Please study the article about climate change and tell us how to overcome it and how better to get the message across.
