What caused the Ice Age? Mainstream scientists can’t tell you because they are still stuck on that supposedly the earth received less intense sunlight in the past because of the theorized Milankovich Cycle of the planets’ revolutions in relationship to the position of the sun, but a colder atmosphere because of this proposed greater distance of the earth from the sun during the Ice Age defies simple hydrology. Under the mainstreamers’ scenario, the atmosphere, colder, would hold less moisture, for less cloudcover, for less snowfall than today, not the huge amounts necessitated for the Ice Age. Think about this, what they propose is completely absurd, but yet, it’s the best they can come up with, because they can’t bring themselves to acknowledge that the higher evaporation rates off the oceans for the Ice Age must have been because of geothermally heated oceans, not solar heated, so they will continue to muddle along, avoiding the obvious, that an ancient geological event must have caused the oceans to heat geothermally.
Tell the students that for the vast cloudcover of the Ice Age, with a massive snow blitz in the extreme latitudes and high elevations, and much more rainfall in the middle latitudes, caused the deserts of the Bible lands to have been lands of vast pastures, with forests, marshes, streams and lakes, in the days of Canaan, Asshur, Nimrod, Kush, Job, Terah, Abraham, Ramah, Shiva, Heth (Hittites), and all the rest, up until the time of Moses, when the Ice Age ended, because the oceans then had cooled to about today’s temperatures, when the middle latitudes dried out, and the sea level rose because of the melting of the Ice Age icepacks to submerge the Bronze Age coastal cities, ruins of which are now found on the shallow seafloor (see category Submerged Ancient Ruins here) in many parts of the world.
(Tied into this lesson, you can explain to the students that heating of the oceans today, by global warming, causes more clouds which cools the atmosphere back down, a negative feedback mechanism, so also because of hydrology 101, we see that the global-warming alarm is too just hype, designed to impede our economic freedom.)
And the mainstream scientists’ best efforts to explain the Ice Age (the earth’s supposed greater distance from the sun then), indeed, is just hype, for them to attempt to avoid the inconvenient, uncomfortable, yet obvious truth, that the oceans must have been heated geothermally, through the midoceanic rift zones, which lace the oceanic crust of the earth, somewhat like the seam on a baseball, which formed during the Deluge, as Pangea, the pre Deluge supercontinent, broke up, and Deluge water from below caused the ocean to rise to cover the pre Deluge hills of the supercontinent, as it broke up, with the 40 days and nights of rain having been the fallout from the fountains of the great deep having vented steam high into the atmosphere, until the Deluge water had risen to carburate that venting into the atmosphere.
Read more about all this in the free ebook download of my first book Old Earth? Why Not!, concentrating on the chapters about Noah’s Flood and the Ice Age which followed, to see that mainstream science is terribly amiss in denying that the Global Flood Model satisfies the requirements for the Ice Age, while their model make no sense, all because they fear the Bible, far and away the most historically accurate and expansive account of our shared ancient past ever recorded.
