What are we expected to believe?

We go through life being taught several values and general things about life alone. We are all typically prepared for the real world, but the real world throws problems at us at will. Global Warming seems to propose an issue that will never die, so I do not think the debate is over at all. How do we designate what is truth and false, what we can really believe with our heart from things we hear that feel wrong. The more and more people that discuss a certain topic the more confusing it can get. When you look at the both extremes we were told about, its depressing to accept that there is no happy median. On one hand in 50-100 years the world will blow up, and then again we could just have the planet flourish unlike we have ever seen. How does this happen? People will always disagree on almost everything, its hard to find someone that can agree with the way you think. But if Gore had scientists proving Global Warming, how can other scientists disagree? I understand that scientist always try to explore every obstacle to be as close to accurate as they can be, but where does the line fall? I guess this may just sound confusing because I am confused. It's almost as if the government does not want you to fully understand what is going on.

Media and Global Warming

The media always wants a good story. Just as anyone good business man wants, business. So really, they will do anything to keep the story flowing and moving along. I am the type that isnt so quick to jump up and believe everything if anything they hear on the television. Honestly, everyone should be this way because the last thing this world needs is blind followers. by simply accepting what is around you without questioning you are giving in, you are losing your own individualism. Now, you may think if everyone wants to be an individual how will anything get down. Its simple in a antagonizing sort of way. People tend to befriend others with the same convictions and understandings, so talk amongst your friends to figure out if you can truly believe what you hear. Listen intently when others around you talk so you can piece together a puzzle. Just make sure you question.
