Garry us modern American white “white men” as the Indians would have called us sure did prove that one wrong.  
Great post I was thinking millions of years with the CO2 locked up in the earth but I didn’t want to get into a screaming match with the creationist. I also would add that not all the carbon we are freeing was in the atmosphere at the same time. I think this is something which is often over looked. Coal turns into oil over centuries with tons of pressure added. So by using these different types of fossil fuels we are using atmospheric carbon from different points in time in the history of the planet.  
You are completely correct with the fact that people with invested intrest in the status quo will fight to protect their investment.
