I just saw a quote from the Huffington Post that said something about Sarah Palin and global warming, "which she doesn't believe in, since she is a creationist." And that made me want to say that I looked at the evidence presented in An Inconvenient Truth, for example, with a creationist's eye, and found that even if a person rejected the arguments that are predicated on the world being millions of years old (and I know you'd think a person was crazy for doing that, but I'm just saying) there was plenty of evidence to convince even a young-earth creationist that global warming is real. I don't really understand why the assumption was made in the quote above that a creationist would not believe in global warming.

What I think she was getting at was the belief that either god created too perfect of a world for us to destroy or the belief that god created earth for man to plunder. I've heard some conservatives spout crap like this. I think it might be a more common opinion among them.
