Its not my 'own' opinion. I'm just concerned and trying to convey the message instead of an argueing.

Concern is fine, but you have to be able to critically analyze what's being said. Don't just pick out the improbable doomsday scenarios. Avoid potentially sensational descriptors like "ice age", unless you're actually referring to one (which, in the conventional sense, you were not). It's not really coming significantly faster than we thought, unless we had our fingers in our ears and were pretending not to hear about it for the last 20 years.

Even if you're right, notice that after ever warm period, ice age approaches really fast. (http://www.seed.slb.com/en/scictr/wa...on_dioxide.jpg)

You realize that you're not helping your position by pointing to the historic trends, right? Isn't your entire thesis that we're deviating from historical norms? That means that you don't really know (based on history) whether a glacial period will come quickly after an interglacial period, because your climate models are based on the historic (>0.03% CO₂) atmosphere.

If all that fresh water makes it way to the Atlantic ocean, it will shut that pump that warms Europe resulting in sudden ice age.

Prior to the word "resulting", you were making a plausible statement. It isn't an ice age. An ice age is a long, long time, like 30 to 300 million years. It isn't a local thing, and it isn't solely caused by mere ocean currents.

If that argument is going on, you're the only participant. I have not been denying global warming; I've been taking issue with the exaggerations of the consequences.
