I get skeptical when something begins to look more like a religion than a scientific discussion.

I get skeptical when it becomes socially unacceptable to question.

There are three questions to ask:

Is the climate changing?
One useful answer is that the climate is always changing.

If the earth’s climate is changing, is it warming?
There appears a consensus that the earth has been warming for some ten thousand years, since the last ice age, with smaller cycles within that period. Whether we are going through a rapid warming phase is in dispute.

If the global climate is changing, are the changes caused by CO2 or other human intervention?
This question has become highly politicized. There is good reason to think not. Sun activity is credibly posited as a cause of current short-term changes in climate.
