You gotta love a state like Alabama. They're so proud of their white heritage that they believe their Grandma when she says she had a fling with an Italian when they ask why their Uncle has kinky hair and big lips

Mo Brooks is a Republican representative from that fine Inbred state of Alabama that has contributed to our National conscious with such great outward offenses against our common decency such as the lynching of Innocent Black Men, using their police as a Quasi-Military force to beat the Shit out of civil-right protesters and completely denying the existence of complicated ideas like Science, Biology, Mathmatics and evolution because it challenges their perfect Childish faith where Santa Claus and his elves created everything. Their religious bull headedness has less to do with the Quntum theory that given enough time and the right events happening it's a probability that life can happen and more to do with the fact that the Jews are right in that when your dead, your dead. Game over.

What has people like Mo Brooks waking up at night in cold sweats is if Science and Evolution are correct, he and all his other Bible bangers are not immortal. When they die they'll just rot in the dirt and there won't be any afterlife soirées for them where they get to hang out in G-D's rose garden eating and drinking for eternity like some Nordic Legend.

Despite Mo Brooks being a fine example of Alabama academics with his areas of expertise being in Politics, Economics, Law and self taught religious studies our Democratically elected government felt that he was more than qualified to be a member of the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology.

Rising Sea Levels

Being in possession of a well trained scientific mindset consisting of curiosity, an open mind, skepticism and humility, Mo Brooks showed skeptism in the current theory of climate change and argued that there is a much more obvious cause for the current increase beeing seen in sea levels that doesn't include the convienant, Fad Science of Global Warming.

Arguing that the world's oceans are like rivers whose water levels rise as silt accumulates at the bottom, Mo Brooks postulated that the current rise of ocean levels is from erosion.

	“	Every single year that we’re on Earth, you have huge tons of silt deposited by the Mississippi River, by the Amazon River, by the Nile, by every major river system — and for that matter, creek, all the way down to the smallest systems," Brooks said. "And every time you have that soil or rock whatever it is that is deposited into the seas, that forces the sea levels to rise. Because now you’ve got less space in those oceans because the bottom is moving up.	„
	—Mo Brooks

Brooks claimed that the ocean itself is at the same height it has always been. What has changed is human interaction through activities like farming and the cutting down of trees. What happens is that silt, dirt and rocks from runoff or natural activities like shorelines and mountains collapsing into the ocean have, over time, collected around shorelines. What Brooks claims has changed is the height of the shoreline floor.

It's simple displacement, Brooks said. You raise the bottom and the water comes further inland because it doesn't hasve the space it once did.

Philip Duffy, president of Woods Hole Research Center, responded that Brooks was a webfooted banjo playing Crackead because science shows that for Brooks to be correct, the top 5 inches of every square inch of soil from the United States would have to instantly erode and settle at the bottom of the oceans to raise the oceans level the 3.3 milimeters that they have increased in recent years.

To put this in perspective, you would have to drop a stone with a diameter of 8 miles and weighing 6.6 quadrillion pounds in the ocean to get the same 3.3 milimeter increase in ocean levels that Brooks claims from runoff from farms and areas like the White Cliffs of Dover collapsing into the sea.
