Also, to those of you who are providing wiki links, they are of no meaning, much less consequence. Unless you are looking up a proper or otherwise easily proven noun, etc. it is not a source.

Although I am providing Wikipedia links, you'll notice that your comment isn't actually relevant to me. Please try to direct your comments more specifically and accurately in the future.

adding only 3% to the greenhouse effect would still increase the temperature a degree or so. A degree may not be too much cause for concern, but even ten degrees would be catastrophic (Americans, remember that a ten degree change in Celsius is almost twenty degrees in Fahrenheit), and our rates of putting greenhouse gases into the atmosphere are not decreasing; they're increasing exponentially.

Four of the top 10 years of US CONUS high temperature deviations are now from the 1930s: 1934, 1931, 1938 and 1939, while only 3 of the top 10 are from the last 10 years (1998, 2006, 1999). Several years (2000, 2002, 2003, 2004) fell well down the leaderboard, behind even 1900.

According to Augie Auer, greenhouse gases are made up primarily by water vapor, and by primarily, I mean 95%. Carbon dioxide makes up 3.6%. Of that 3.6%, only 3.2% is man-made, now if you've done your geneforge armor calculation homework, you'd know that that means that humans have contributed 0.1152% of the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Man produced methane, nitrogen dioxide, and CFCs have similarly negligible values.NASA's data happens to be the data used by the civilized world to determine the annual average temperature. Seems they suffered from the Y2K bug, because, after a startlingly large gap was found in the data, starting January 2000, they recalculated the data. Guess what, 1998 ain't the hottest year ever anymore. That honor goes to 1934, hell, 2000-2004 are all behind 1900. In fact, the temperature has been progressively decreasing.

Jesus is from Latin Jesu, which comes from Greek Iesous, which probably comes from Yeshua in Hebrew (or Aramaic).

The gospels wouldn't be calling for Christ's name to be accursed, and there's a perfectly good name that doesn't rely on acronyms.

Also, my understanding is that that particular epithet is reserved for those who come close to being perfect embodiments of evil. Judaism may not recognize Jesus as anyone special, but he was hardly evil.

—Alorael, who would very much like to see a citation on your etymology. It seems highly questionable and very close to religious bigotry. Yes, Jews are good at that too.
