Global Warming has become just like a religion. This leads us to must read #1

" The debate about global warming has taken on such emotional tones that what was originally a scientific debate has now become transformed into a phase typified by passion and irrationality. The degree of hostility used to mull any dissonance voice demonstrates that the current debate has acquired a quasi-religious nature and thus has become extremely dangerous.

To give an illustration about what should be a scientific debate, imagine that a scientist was to question the reality of gravity. The community of scientists as a whole would be indifferent to such an opinion ad just ignore it. And its scientific colleagues would at the very most express some feeling of compassion toward someone who had evidently lost his head. But with certainty this scientist would not become the victim of any kind of aggression."

This is from an excellent paper by Serge Galam. He very convincingly proves that this debate has become a religion, it has been taken out of the hands of scientists, and how dangerous this trend is.

Must Read #2 was found at Bob's Bites and is by Lord Christopher Monckton, UK. It points out ten lies from Al Gore. I found this one particularly funny.

"Error 7: “India has millions of people living in the low-lying areas that are getting threatened by the increasing sea level.”

The next Must Reads are a couple of other blogs.

Anthony Watts at WattsUpWithThat has come to national attention lately. His blog is more like what I want this one to be like if I had more time. He does his own research and number crunching, and shows the results, whether it helps the global warming activists or not. He writes in a logical easy to understand way, and has a great sense of humor. It is a must have in your an rss reader.

Steve McIntyre at Climate Audit has an amazing site also. He disproves Mann's hockey stick graph over and over. I love reading his blog. Beware it is a little technical and hard to read without a pretty good scientific background.

Then there are the obvious Must Read websites.
