I am a believer in science and the scientific method. I am also G-d fearing. I find no contradiction in these positions; G-d gave us intellect and expects us to use it. On the other hand, I am not convinced that the current state of scientific knowledge is the sine qua non of understanding the workings of global climate. Climatology has only started to benefit relatively recently from progress in computer processing speed and available time on supercomputers able to run complex climate models. Anyway, I am a layperson. What I know about science could barely fill an evening of dinner conversation.
