Are you equating the deniers with religious zealots, or the believers?
Most of the sceptics I've seen would add a
5)  The believers are preaching, and trying to force everyone to change 
their way of life to suit the believer's theory

As soon as you say the sceptics are "Lying to persuade others" you cross 
from objective to subjective.
It only takes 30 seconds on the 'net to find insurmountable evidence of 
AGW and insurmountable evidence of no long term warming and 
insurmountable evidence of warming due to non-human factors.
It's all down to which data you pick to base the claim on, and which you 
ignore (and both sides of the AGW debate are doing both every day).
