It is also clear that the planet is now at one of the higher points in that cycle, but nowhere near the peak of 1200 BC. This is not an opinion. It is not a supposition. It is a SCIENTIFIC fact. The Earth had a much warmer period 3200 years ago without a few thousand coal power plants. We have a very long way to go to reach the highest points of CO2 concentrations on Earth that have occurred naturally.
Look at this video at about 2:18. Look at the amount of carbon in the atmosphere at the year 1200 BC (280). It is much lower than it is now yet the planet was much warmer overall.

Why do you think that the graphs from the Vostok and Greenland ice core projects are unacceptable as evidence?
Over ten-thousand years ago we were in an ice age. They seem to occur regularly. We're due for one now.
You clearly don't understand your own argument. You have claimed that several other factors have a greater influence than man made emissions. You the point to disparate 'facts' and claim they support your claim. However, you fail to provide a single reference to a peer reviewed paper that even makes that claim... Until you make such an effort, I really don't see any need to discuss this with you.
