More from wonderingmind42

Last June, I posted a video of an interesting call to action on the climate change issue. The maker of that video, Greg Craven (aka wonderingmind42), then posted a few more videos trying to patch holes in the first one, in a rather frazzled tone

That was very well put-together, and quite well articulated. That's 10 minutes of my life I don't mind having spent watching this guy. I may point some friends in the direction of this video. Thanks for posting it!

With one exception, I loved that video! Clear, fun, engaging, I just hope that the people who need to see it find it. Also of interest are Brad Hick's views--he claims that he doesn't believe in "anthropogenic" climate change, but he believes that we should be switching over the a more green society regardless. He's also one of my favorite thoughtful 'bloggers on a wide variety of topics.

I should also say that I'm resisting the urge to go on and on about how excited I get by the democratization of media inherent in youTube, &c.

The one exception: That silly grid.

I still really hate this Wager, I think that's a real mistake. It's "works" for Pascal only you claim that the cost of theism is literally nill. Otherwise, it's a question of cost/risk analysis, and he doesn't address the probabilities.

To put it another way, he didn't say anything with his grid that I couldn't also say about the Rapture with a similar grid. The difference is that we have good reason to believe that Global Warming is more likely than the Rapture, and that is the important thing to focus on.
