Why even have a thread about a post hoc fallacy in the first place?

EVEN IF CO2 levels are the highest in some period, SO WHAT?!? Any real 
scientist knows that drawing conclusions from that, like humans put the 
CO2 there or that CO2 is causing warming, is an illogical POST HOC 
FALLACY.

I'm mean Wormley doesn't, but then I did say "any real scientist".
