Ahem, ice age, glaciers covered a great deal of the land masses and were a mile deep. That’s a lot of melting water.
Glaciers. Yep. They still do cover a great deal of land mass, and are miles deep. They are near the poles.
We used to have glaciers across The Northern part of the U.S. and the Midwest. But that was those parts of the land mass WERE the POLAR REGION.
What is now the POLAR REGIONS, used to be tropics.
Scientists would have you believe (or teachers anyway) that the whole planet was covered in ice. Simply isn’t true.
Neither is the concept that the continents float around the seas willy-nilly bumping into each other and causing the mountain ranges to form.
There was some ‘individual tectonic plate movement’ that occurred, but that was a long time ago. The planet was much bigger, and an asteroid (or several) hit the Earth and burst through it like a bullet penetrating a pumpkin. Little hole in, big hole going out the back.
If you look at Google Earth, you can see the incoming hole (the Gulf of Mexico) and the outgoing mess where the ‘crust’ healed on the opposite side of the planet, under the ocean. This is where the moon came from.
