Tell me how a photon traveling at a longer wave length and substantially less energy can warm a hotter object.. I'll wait..
There is no scientist nor reasonably intelligent person in this forum that believes that would ever happen. If you want to believe that you will have to ask some other person.
So the answer is no...you believe without any observed or measured evidence...that my friend is...by definition.....faith.
faith - n. belief that is not based on proof
I believe that you have
no evidence that BB photons can be impeded by a hotter body. The fact that you believe that is faith on your part.
I don't think you have been following the discussion carefully.
Here is a start...there are literally 10's of thousands more...note that most of these practice hard sciences vs the soft science of climate science...
I still don't think you have been following the discussion carefully. If you were, you would seem to be saying those references verify that there is evidence that photons are impeded from striking a warmer body. Or as Todd you say, you think your thousands of references say that smart photons exist. I doubt it. You are changing the topic from radiation physics to atmospheric physics. We are not discussing that now.

Don't tell SSDD that such photons can hit warmer matter.
You see gentlemen, the black bodies are emitting at a much higher frequency and energetic level. A cooler object can not affect a warmer one due the the resonate frequency of the photons being emitted.
Thus the second law prevents a cooler object from warming a hotter one.
Its not smart photons, its a matter of energy physics.. Just like a dampening field, caused by emissions of a transmitter, the photons are incapable of doing anything to the mass, which is emitting at the higher resonate frequency.
SSDD is right. The photons never reach the warmer black body because of the field surrounding all matter generated by its emissions. A good example of this is Solar output being caught in the earths magnetic bands which never allows it to strike the earth.
Again Empirically Observed effect trumps unsupported conjecture.
