Consider all these motions:
(1) the earth’s rotation about its axis
(2) the rotation of the earth’s axis (equinox precession)
(3) the changing of the earth’s orbit (many different
motions here: the oscillations of the orbit, the
shape of the orbit
(4) the sun enjoys a few of these as our system rotates
about/within our galaxy.

My thinking is that all of these rotations are the main
driving force for climate change. The sun is giving off
billions of rays of heat but the intensity & durations
of those rays is changing every millesecond.

Visualize a gyroscope which demonstrates pitch, yaw &
roll. Now cascade them into boxes which act like
gyroscopes. Now you see why these pseudo-experts want
to blame CO2. That’s much easier mathematically than trying to study all these motions.

Makes one dizzy when one tries to visualize all this,
doesn’t it? Your thoughts?

You are describing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milankovitch_cycles Milankovitch Cycles.

In fact, the effects of CO2 are much, much harder to model accurately, which is why they are so much more contraversial. Which is another way of saying, they are making it up and have no idea what they are talking about.
