Because it is impossible to convince the other side by saying "my side is truth, your side is opinion."

If the goal in engaging climate skeptics is to turn them into climate realists, then the discussion must be on their terms, not yours. "skeptics" always forget this because they aren't "skeptical" at all - they just accept that anything sciencey-sounding is dogma and anyone who questions dogma is an infidel.
