That ICR site has an interesting alternative explanation of the Ice Core findings.
is it just that everything Man has discovered that shows the Earth to be billions of years old is a buncha scientific hooey nonsense?
Not all scientific claims can be easily refuted with our current knowledge, but alterative explanations exist for much including the Grand Canyon and Plate Techtonics.
ICR articles by branch of earth science
See the articles on Plate Techtonics and Grand Canyon in the list below

Ice cores aren't going to show how the Cape formed......or how the Hudson River Valley formed.....or any of the other landscapes and water systems that were formed the last Ice Age........there's a reason why Minnesota has 10000 lakes.
The ice age DID occur.
So, the Grand Canyon was formed when Noah made his Ark, eh? The articles say otherwise:
In Grand Canyon, the "date" of metamorphism of the basalt lavas to form these Brahma amphibolites has been determined as 1690-1710 Ma (million years ago)
.....the argument is that, because radioisotope dating isn't as "exact" as they demand...then the young-earth theory is correct and the Canyon was created by the Great Flood. Such conclusions.....
Just read another of the articles and find their tactics fascinating and quite dishonest.
Evidence? The Burlingame Canyon in Washington that was formed in 6 days. Yes, it truly was. That means that the Grand Canyon COULD have been formed in such a short period of time, right?
Wrong. The Burlingame Canyon was carved out of "loess" a fine powdery, FRIABLE (reduced to fine sand easily) and really fragile sedimentary substance that cannot even be considereed "rock"......which is not what the make up of the Grand Canyon, so one cannot compare and equate the 2.
Their premise fails with even a cursory glance.
