What is being argued, is that "we" are the massive volcano as we have replaced a natural phenomenon and caused it to speed up dramatically.

We have "warmed up" by one and a half degrees in the last 100 years. That isn't an "extreme change" and it didn't happen almost instantaneously as some climate changes have.
The "Little Ice Age" didn't take "thousands of years" to happen. It happened within a decade and decimated mankind.
The warm up era (when it was much warmer than it is now), helped lead to the Renaissance and the end of the Dark Ages as people were no longer starving and freezing to death.
Come on man, think about it for a second. Really think about it. I know you've made up your mind, but for God's sake....history is right at your fingertips to read about this stuff.
