My comments weren’t an argument against the existence of God.
I wouldn’t say my life finds a way to be faith based. I am basing it on previous mass extinctions where the most adaptable survive. I don’t see why that would be different this time, but of course it might be.
The problem with the ‘cyclical’ comment is that we have observed natural cycles and natural evidence through Earth’s history. None line up with today’s climate variations. The Milankovich cycles, which are the likely dominant climate forcing variable of the Pleistocene suggests we should be in a gradual cooling trend, so it’s not that. Similarly, the Sun’s activity is stable, volcanism is stable etc. Despite conspiracy theorists’ claims, all the research suggests man’s fingerprint.
