One of the Stupidest things you have said recently.

First of all, I would say that the so called 3% doesn't get anywhere near the same press as the 97%. Secondly.. if 97% of scientists said that aliens exist and have contacted them, and 3% said they did not. And you were reporting on it on the news, would you just ignore the differing opinion? I mean.. I understand why YOU like to ignore a differing opinion, but that's not what news is supposed to do. I think you watch MSNBC and HBO for your news to much.

This is for you Cwolff...

"Atheists comprised an estimated 2.01%, and non-religious a further 9.66% of the world population, according to The World Factbook in 2010.'

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_atheism

88.33% of the world believes in a God, the Debate is over, God exists. We shouldn't have news stories about atheists anymore.

- Edit - The 9.66% just don't identify with a set religion, so it could be argued that the numbers are 97.99% for and 2.01% against. Which is higher then climate change according to you.

When that 88.33% publish their research in a peer-review journal, the analogy will hold.

I only found 8,096 references on JSTOR. At 5 authors per paper, that's only 40,000 people. A far cry from 88.33% of the world's population, sir!
