Um, it's not a "different view," it's denial of settled science and actual physical events occurring right now.

Do you claim not to believe what the overwhelming majority of climate scientists believe? Do you believe climate science is a hoax? Do you believe that current extreme weather events are just happening by chance?

Regardless of their point of view, I don’t think you should ban someone for disagreeing with you, banning should have clear “why’s”, like distributing illegal content, spamming, etc., if you think that person is wrong, maybe it’s your chance to educate them, or maybe it’s ok that we have different views about things..

It's not worth arguing with people without experience in the field to evaluate this for themselves. At this point, the best we can do is minimize their impact on the decision-makers who need to make hard choices.

Um, don't argue with the church or else you're going to hell. The priests say so.

Do you know that earth is 4.5 billion years old and it has own cycles, right?

Yes, we know that. What's your point- that climate change today can be explained by earth's climate cycles?

Yes, something like that.
