Now he proves it by posting a cartoon with people under water when the claim of the seas rising has been withdrawn by the hoaxers!
Get help! To be so badly deranged that one has to blame religion for every malady one sees is a serious illness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Current sea level rise has occurred at a mean rate of 1.8 mm per year for the past century,[1][2] and more recently at rates estimated near 2.8 ± 0.4[3] to 3.1 ± 0.7[4] mm per year (1993-2003). Current sea level rise is due significantly to global warming,[5] which will increase sea level over the coming century and longer periods.[6][7] Increasing temperatures result in sea level rise by the thermal expansion of water and through the addition of water to the oceans from the melting of continental ice sheets. At the end of the 20th century, thermal expansion and melting of land ice contributed roughly equally to sea level rise, while thermal expansion is expected to contribute more than half the rise in the upcoming century.[8] Values for predicted sea level rise over the course of this century typically range from 90 to 880 mm, with a central value of 480 mm. Models of glacial flow give a theoretical maximum value for sea level rise in the current century of 2 metres (and a “more plausible” one of 0.8 metres), based on limitations on how quickly ice can flow.[9]

Please refute each and every one of the citations above; remember each and every single person involved in each citation is a hoaxer and a liar, right Bill? Each and every person associated with each and every link above is a dullard beneath the knowledge and expertise held only by Bu11 Sh1t Billy.
Each and every citation above says sea level rise is a reality.
Here is the link (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_sea_level_rise )
to where you can find active links to each of the citation links above.
It's all a huge international hoax, right Billy, each and every name above is part of the world wide consperiency, to which only witless boobs like stupid as a stump Bill Koski and the Jesus jerk off Jimmy Inhofe can see through.
Bill and Inhofe, two dimwitted toadies, that constantly blow there gums just to hear themselves talk.
Religion is the basis upon which all small minded and willfully ignorant people such as you and Sen. James Inhofe are made capable of disregarding mountains of data from so vast and varied a number of sources as to boggle the mind. If you are incapable of discerning the reality that all religion is myth carried forward from the dawn of human sentience, how is it even remotely possible that you could begin to fathom what reality truly is.
The really scary thing is that somewhere around 80% of the US population seems afflicted with the same malady.
Remember now Billy, refute each and every citation, OK?
