Go with the flow ping.
It’s Bush’s ancestors fault.
Heinsohn puts the flood about 3500 years ago.
I don’t want to know - stuff like this makes me dizzy;)
What really happened was that Man (and women) were created when the Earth was created. They started building fires at night to cook the animals that they had killed during the day. The fire put evil carbon dioxide into the new, pristine atmosphere causing the Sun to heat things up which in turn killed the animals. Hence a mass extinction. Thus it has been thru the ages. Man and Woman have polluted the pristine Earth an eventually most of the animals (except those in the deep ocean and those in caves and under rocks) were killed off. We are in the 4th or 5th cycle. But not to worry, the protestors and the aging hippies will save the Earth and turn it into a paradise.
Just what happened that killed off half the species on the planet, though, remains a mystery
Why? I thought scientist had it all figured out.
99% of Scientist blame “Bush” (pear reviewed). However, of those who blame Bush 78% also blame Christians,Conservatives, Tea Partiers,racism and homophobia.
Why are they spending all that money on finding the answer to this riddle when they could poll the scientists (all type of scientists) and reach a consensus?
If I recall correctly, indications of a very large impact crater partially on antarctica (subglacial today) have been found, the rest would be on the australian plate. Read this a few years ago here.
Before somebody blames me, it was already like that when I got here.
I suppose it could therefore be argued that climate change caused by the entrapment of greenhouse gases is actually simply restoring the order to what the Earth should has always been - a growing band of uninhabitable land alone the equator, with increasingly violent storms in the rest of the world.
That is, if one were going to posit the existence of man-affected climate change.
But since that can never be done, it is far smarter to simply say that this man’s work is pure bunkum. Man’s behavior cannot affect the Earth’s atmosphere. Not only that, but there is no evidence that 1.) there was a huge extermination of aboriginal peoples as a result of Europe’s colonization of the Americas; 2.) that the peoples were responsible for the clearing of millions of acres of the North and South American continents; 3.) that forests such as the Amazonian are actually only 400 years old or so.
He better have some amazing evidence to back up all that conjecture.
