Yes, among other factors. Again, take a look at the site and form your own opinions.

I've done that. Mr. Felix needs to address this in his future research work:

Milankovitch cycles

Berger A, Loutre MF (2002). "Climate: An exceptionally long interglacial ahead?". Science 297 (5585): 1287-1288.DOI:10.1126/science.1076120

Global cooling

"As for the prospects of the end of the current interglacial (again, valid only in the absence of human perturbations): it isn't true that interglacials have previously only lasted about 10,000 years; and Milankovitch-type calculations indicate that the present interglacial would probably continue for tens of thousands of years naturally [17]. Other estimates (Loutre and Berger, based on orbital calculations) put the unperturbed length of the present interglacial at 50,000 years. Berger (EGU 2005 presentation) believes that the present CO2 perturbation will last long enough to suppress the next glacial cycle entirely."

If Mr. Felix responds, in print, to Berger and Loutre 2002, then I'll pay more attention to him and his theory.
