Of course it shouldn't, and hasn't.
With solar cycles, axle tilt and orbital wobble (all natural occurrences) the only constant is change. Change which can at one time be a (more or less) constant rate and, at other times rabid changes, one time warming and another cooling. More than likely cooling and warming at the same time in different parts of the earth.
All of this occurring without the assistance of humans.

I don't know, maybe it's just me, but coming out of a brutally cold period like the Little Ice Age, allowing for an increase in temperature of LESS THAN 1 degree in 150 years doesn't seem unreasonable. Some people might even think of that as TOO slow.
If alarmists think this is too much, just how much would they allow the Earth to warm up? Half a degree? Listening to Alarmists, they want to attribute 80-90% to man - about 0.6 of the 0.7 C that the Earth has warmed in the last 150 years.
Does ONE TENTH of a DEGREE per 150 years seem right coming out of a brutally cold global climate?

Time is not a natural feature of the universe; there's no Cosmic Master Clock that ticks of the correct time for the entire universe. Einstein showed us that. For example, right "now" on the West Coast it's 1:20 PM, but in New York City it's 4:20 PM. Which time is correct? They both are because there's no Cosmic Master Clock against we can compare them. Time is nothing more than a concept invented by sentient beings like us to separate events.

Not hardly. In any system as complex as a planetary climate, there will be short-term variations. The overall trend of Earth's climate changes is increasing in rate, however, as global warming worsens.

No. But man shouldn't be messing it up. Scientific proof:

Especially when the consequences of Man's action are really bad:

Just like a flat earth, the climate should always be static.
