Oh really? So, if we put a grain of sand under a microscope, we should see little balls orbiting a really big ball in the center?
Why would a larger physical Universe behave to different laws.
Because global warming doesn't adhere to any known law that we know of, except perhaps to the fact that CO2 in the atmosphere causes it to retain more heat from solar radiation.
If you are referring to an unquantifiable metaphysical universe, then there is no point in scientific discussion.
No, I didn't refer to it that way at all. I just think that it's a bit wacky to claim that global warming provides evidence of anything pertaining to the cosmos. Heck, I could claim that the moon proves that the universe is ever unchanging since the moon hasn't changed much for the last billion years or so except to gain a few more craters per million years.
The only discussion you can have is with a fellow traveller, or a science fiction writer.
Yeah... sure....
