This is exactly why I spend as little time arguing with climate change fanatics as possible because they are unreasonable and impartial and blind themselves to contrary evidence from all my experiences. It's almost like a religious argument with some of the people I've met. Pretend something is not there and we are 100% right all the time.

It has nothing to do with the age and ruggedness of the earth. Merely an insufficient sample size of evidence that puts unbalanced weight upon the influence of humans. It's no wonder we automatically correlate observable effects to human activity because they coincide on the same tiny slice of the geological timescale when there are many more compelling reasons for it that have perfectly legitimate scientific evidence backing it as well.
