It was also unanimously rejected in a party-line vote with all Republicans voting no.

God's existance can't be tested by science (well, some versions of God can't). Global warming can.
I'm going to play nice: "I don't believe in X, therefore X doesn't exist". If X is Jarome Iginla, gravity, the Pope, evolution, etc., that statement is obviously false because X does exist. Therefore, the logic doesn't work. Whether something exists or not does not depend on whether or not people believe it exists. I would hope the opposite to be true, but it often isn't either.
