Oh right, the same things you base your belief in magic on

I can only speak from experience.

You never said why wicca 'wasn't for you'. Was wicca too 'wakky', even for you?

I don't base my opinion on information provided by corporations, dictatorships, nor indeed media outlets that promote the climate change agenda. I base it on my knowledge of history and prehistory.

Okay, but I don't see how that has much to do with the points I raise with you above.

And your knowledge of history and prehistory comes from the sources you choose to fall back on in examining and then in encompassing them. Just as those who believe the opposite of what you do can themselves maintain that they base their political prejudices on their own knowledge of history and prehistory.

The nature of political prejudices themselves in regard to value judgments derived existentially from dasein. The part here that we more or less overlap regarding and the part where we do not.

It's just that with this particular issue, it's still years before we will find out for sure who is closer to the actual reality of climate change.

Yes, you're right. We can only form opinions based on what we experience, or learn from sources we trust.
