Ice cores. Count the layers. 1 big layer, 1 big year, 1 small layer, 1 small year.

You are able to prove this “theory” taking into account all factors over a two million year period? How?

ICE Cores to prove the age of the earth?

let’s do the math.

Assume 80 Million years (as claimed in the dino article) a mere instant of supposedly earths’ history

If you have a 2 THOUSANDTH’s of an inch thick for each layer, in 80 Million years, that’s

13,333 FEET of Ice Core or over 2 MILES DEEP.

At best ice core can be used to prove tens or at most hundreds of thousands of years, NOT MILLIONS.

“Ice cores. Count the layers. 1 big layer, 1 big year, 1 small layer, 1 small year.”

This assumption doen’t account for melting/refreezing over the course of, let’s say, a single spring, having multiple icing events with intermittent periods of melting. I see no proof that each Ice layer = single year.
