Don't confuse more sun-exclusive arguments (like Abdusamatov's) with widely accepted solar cycles and so on.

"But there are many papers that support the sun's contribution to current warming being small to minimal:" - this was the point I was challenging. Now you say
nobody disputes the sun factor. Just look up to the top of the page your post is on.
Who said I was confusing sun-exclusive argument with solar cycles. Did you read the paper? It wasn't inferring sun-exclusivity either. My point here is that the real issue isn't sun-exclusivity arguments on this topic; it is greenhouse gas exclusivity.
