And it started a loooong time ago, right after the last Ice Age. Those damned Neanderthals, cro magnons and their SUVs!
Cro magdon Jim Cantory was there. Clearly he hasnt evolved much since then.
magnon..:
I’ve never really heard what caused the Ice Ages to END........................
And this proves what, other than a low land, swampy peninsula, was inundated by a major storm 12,000 years ago and that said storm had no effect on the development of civilization.
Hurry and cash our check for this “study”.
Pelosi’s Fault.
The age is right...
It was the citizens of Bedrock driving their SUVs! I blame Fred and Wilma Flintstone and Barney and Betty Rubble...
Could have, might have, maybe did, possibly did - depending on the “computer models” which all depend on the values given to variables that the researchers are just as uncertain about.
Lol! Wasn’t 12,000 years ago. A global flood would look like a Cat5+ for sure.
How far away is the nearest galaxy to ours?
Hmm? Andromeda to my knowledge. Over two million light years away. Farther than any known living entity could travel in a lifetime.
James Ussher
"James Ussher (or Usher; 4 January 1581 21 March 1656) was the Church of Ireland Archbishop of Armagh and Primate of All Ireland between 1625 and 1656. He was a prolific scholar and church leader, who today is most famous for his chronology that sought to establish the time and date of the creation as "the entrance of the night preceding the 23rd day of October... the year before Christ 4004"; that is, around 6 pm on 22 October 4004 BC according to the proleptic Julian calendar."
Humanity thrived.
.
Ussher was a brilliant man, and he was able to solve all of the temporal mysteries of Yehova’s creation to a high degree of accuracy considering the tools he had to work with.
.
involved analyzing turbidites: a type of undersea landslide deposit that can provide a record for storm events. As the last ice age ended, turbidites captured records of Florida's stormy days.

Damn SUVs.
Actually, the ice age was ending around 15 to 18,000 years ago. then about 12 to 13,000 years ago, something big happened to the northern hemisphere. It may have wiped out the Clovis culture, killed most of the mega-fauna, created the Carolina Bays, and perhaps Lake Michigan. It also precipitated the Younger Dryas cold spell which lasted more than 1,000 years. Since the seas were lower as the ice age was ending, Florida was bigger with more land at a higher elevation.
Sunken Civ: Time to post that Firestone et al book which explains a lot of this. Thanks
The belief that Bishop Ussher could establish an hour, day and year for creation is a sign of how bad our school systems have become. My recollection is that his calculation was based on the number and ages of the “begats” in the Bible. Since no days, hours, or years were given for the begats, it is mathematically IMPOSSIBLE to establish a “correct” time and date for creation. One can only establish an “estimated” time for that event, give or take a certain number of years. Of course in 1656 a lot less was known about statistics and estimating. Now that statistics is a clearly established mathematical science it is an insult to God to continue using an absurd time line which limits the magnificence of God’s creation. It also smacks of “fake news” to use such mathematically imprecise data to establish a precise date. Mathematics as a science has a level of precision that is in a different league than climate science, sociology, and other “soft sciences.”
I hope those computer models are more accurate than the ones used to advance socialism through the AGW scare!
