There is only one goddess Gaia and Al Gore is her only prophet...

I guess you have to try something when you are wrong.

The e-mails, from what I've seen and heard only suggest that certain climate scientists have colluded to misrepresent their findings, and shut down debate. They are two very serious charges against scientists who within the academe should welcome debate, and should endeavor to represent the truth as they know it. The politicization of the climate issue (as with many issues) has shut down rational investigation, forced scientists to choose sides, and seriously hindered academic freedom. People are being forced to choose politically correctness over scientific method in order to save their reputations and livelihood. This is unfortunately not new in the realms of science.

Here in your judgmental analysis you denigrate the messenger for a mistake that occurred over 50 years ago, you dismiss the opinions of ministers from their associations, and you dismiss a geophysicist as a climate skeptic. But, never once did you discuss the merits of their positions. Shouldn't we all be skeptics lest we devolve into wool bearing bleating animals?
