Hmmm, you seem to dismiss milankovitch cycle out of hand based on your misunderstanding that it marginalize the role of GHG, until it was represented to you that it in fact seem to favor antropogenic climate change.
Let's say antropogenic climate change, if valid, would present an argument critical to winning public support for a conservationist agenda you strongly favor.
But a researcher presents a large body of scientifically valid and compelling evidence against antropogenic climate change, and thereby making it highly probable that antropogenic climate change is wrong. Would you acccept that antropogenic warming is thereby discredited, and conceed your agenda should not be supported at least from that quarter, or would you ignore the development, argue against the motive of the research, so as to prevent your agenda from being robbed of its critical, but now invalid, support?
