I think my opinions are based in no scientific fact - but:
I think the temperature of the earth has risen and fallen by varying degrees over hte course of it's billions of years in existance. I have a hard time believing this slight upward trend is the beginnings of the end of the world -
But yeah - I know i'm just a bullshitter

Global warming is a fact. What people don't understand is that the adverage temperature has risen and there is no reputable scientist who really questions that. People question the implication.
That is my take.

My take on it is, climate change is inevitable, the earth goes though periods of warming and cooling. However, the increase in temperature globally has been at a rate unprecedented before. Humanities impact on global climate is undeniable, the question is, can it be proven that rapid temperature change occurred like this naturally in the past?

Sure. an unprecedentated rate over the period of time that we can accurately measure that. I don't know much about our scientists' abilities to accurately guess the average change in temperature over the past couple hundred thousand years -- but even if they could get it for the past 1,000,000 years, that's still only 1/5,000th+ of the total time the earth's been around.

Global warming is not caused from human activity maybe that huge ball of fire in the sky might have something to do with it.

Technically speaking Global Warming has been occuring.
Is it the threat that is being portrayed by the global media?
No.

Your logic on this is inaccurate. If it was on, then the moon would be really hot on both sides of it not just the light side.
What keeps the heat in on our planet is the ozone layer. Yes the sun heats us, but it is not the reason for the increase in average temperature over the last couple of centuries. An increase in CO2 output and other greenhouse gasses are.

Oh you mean the C02 that is the supporter for all life on earth is causing this so called temperature shift. It's a big scam in order to tax and regulate carbon emissions for profit. What's next a tax on breathing. nice try

How many here have actually read scientific peer-reviewed journals on global warming?

You seriously need to take some science classes.
Check out what the ozone is made up of buddy. Yes the planet needs CO2, but it can also have too much of it in the atmosphere. If you have too much of it, the ozone starts trapping in more warmth over all. Therefore you have an increase in average temperature.
Nice try.

Raises hand.
Also I have taken college level meteorology.

global warming is definitely real. the major huge corporations don't really play this up in the media because they support the destruction of Earth.

A bit confused, are you saying I need to take science classes for saying it is a fact that the adveraga temp is rising?
