Peak of the Ice Age, 4,000 years ago? Fail.

Yes there was a global flood, but it wasn’t just a flood caused by a lot of rain, it was a catastrophe caused by a comet impact.

Also, the story of geologist J. Harlan Bretz, the guy who found evidence for the Lake Missoula flood (now known as the Bretz Flood) via the pioneering of aerial geology, is instructive about the difficulty that new ideas based on better observation have in gaining purchase in academia. His treatment at the hands of his peers was disgusting and he never forgave them for their intellectual extortion.

“....about 4,000 years ago...”

I thought The Flood was supposed to have happened about 4,000 years ago.
