I am using an analagy to point out that saying "not all" scientists agree with Global Warming is hardly an appropriate argument.
I am not saying that you are racist. I am saying that there are always crackpots who disagree with the overwhealming weight of scientific study and they should not be given credence simply because they exist.
It is unfortunate that your only response is to say that I was dragging this discussion into the gutter. I believe your arguments are spurious and I used another spurious argument for an example. It was the first example I could think of although there are certainly others.
A few scientists argued that there was no such thing as nuclear winter.
A few scientists still think the world is flat.
A few scientists dismissed the theory of relativity.
A few scientists said nuclear power was impossible.

That didn't make them right.
