You think it's ok reasoning to do comparisons of atmosphere content between recent and times when the atmosphere was too toxic to sustain life?

Too toxic? My god man!! There were lifeforms living at that time that were far more diverse, as well as FAR GREATER in size than anything living today. And they ruled on this planet for millions of years.

But the point of the discussion is the fallacy that somehow mankind is harming the planet with CO2 emissions when the reality shows that CO2 levels were FAR HIGHER long before the advent of mankind.

Current CO2 amounts are at levels that haven't been seen since the end of the Paleozoic Era, which ended with the Permian and Carboniferous periods.
