Well, I'm a scientist.

I happen to believe that computer models with lots and lots of variables, like some climate models, are not likely predictive of anything valid.

Models can be nudged down any desired path by biased assumptions and inputs; and once the models' predictions are shown to be invalid (as I suspect is the current case, the "warming" essentially stopped) there is no good scientific reason to consider their results of any value.

I started working on Mini-Computers at DEC in 1977. The first rule I was taught was “Garbage In. Garbage Out.”
