And it seems like a lot of scientists are skeptical about the same thing.

I wasn't necessarily saying whether or not C02 causes global warming, I was just using it as an example. I was just trying to explain how the process of science works. Saying a scientist should try and disprove a theory has inherent flaws of bias. It is much more productive for the community if that scientists tries to prove his own theory. In doing so he may prove his theory right and in turn disprove the existing theory. Rockin' Flames post seemed like he was just wanted people to go out make up opposition on the other side just because the global warming theory isn't air tight. To disprove a theory you have to have evidence to back it up. What Rockin seems to be saying is that he believes that scientists are only looking at some of the evidence, when that is not the case.
