You missed the point, again.
You sir, are confusing correlation with causation. Yes, there were ancient humans. Yes there was ancient climate change not caused by humans. Yes there is currently modern climate change, but it doesn't then follow that people still have no affect whatsoever on the planet. There can be modern climate change as a naturally occurring phenomenon, along with even greater changes due to humans.
You are trying to compare apples and oranges by ignoring the impact of 7 billion people on the earth, and suggesting they have no more affect on the planet than a few hundred thousand people whose greatest ability was to start a campfire.
You could never convince a monkey to give you a banana by promising him limitless bananas after death in monkey heaven.
