You said you didn't want to debate global warming, but you then immediately described it as a "myth", thereby provoking the very debate you claimed not to want.

of the global warming / climate change myths.
Since then you have raised no valid arguments, and indeed the arguments you did raise would embarrass even thoroughly discredited "sceptics" like Ian Plimer. Evidently you have not invested any effort at all into understanding the issues and the science.
With the point about the distance to the Sun you have now ventured irretrievably into self-satire. Perhaps you are trolling, but trolls are supposed to be funny, and you fail even there.

I've read that post before, and many similar, nothing changes for me.
Did you read that I didn't want to debate this matter?
I do not take as gospel truth the information provided by such
(web)sites; particularly such sites that so strongly advocate a cause or
belief which I personally and strongly believe to be false. Time, in
the end, will tell, not any site like you've just presented (yet again).
Kind Regards
