1. Do you discard all sciences then?
2. Were there mammals living on Earth at these times?
3. Did temperatures rise this fast after the previous ice ages? If so, how did the most complex organisms adapt? Did they survive?
4. Is global warming taboo enough for the fossil fuel industries to look for benefits in all directions?
5. Maybe we're studying the effect of climate change on a shorter time period because the current trend is much faster than previous shifts?

Yes, of course, and thriving, e.g. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cretaceous https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cretaceous 3. One of my points is that because of limitations of time resolution of our current data sources, we really don't know. 4. I'm not sure what you mean 5. Again, we don't know. More importantly to this point, you're looking at less than <.001% of time series data and treating it as a trend. This could very easily be a transient spike.
