When Abraham lived in Ur, it was a coastal village on the Persian Gulf. Today, it is 100 miles inland.
Also, the Persian Gulf was completely dry during the Ice Age.
It starts with that damned neanderthal squirrel always trying to find somewhere to hide his nut.

People, understandably, have trouble understanding geologic time versus recorded history time. Recorded history goes back about 5,000 years - ice ages go back and forth every 100,000 years or so. The entire recorded history of the planet fits into one warm period. That period will end...and it may start during our lives, or it may not - but it will end, and the world will be a vastly different place from what it is now.
From Texas to Florida, the states will be HUGE.

Resulting in less sunspots over an extended period...
Welcome to another 400 year long mini ice age.

“Also, the Persian Gulf was completely dry during the Ice Age.”
XLNT!!!! Less chance of getting swarmed by Iranian small boats loaded with VBIEDs....or attacked with their ASCMs.
Plus it is too hot up there in the Spring thru Fall.
It doesn’t matter whether we are in for global warming or another ice age. Either way it is Bush’s fault and the only solution is more taxes.
