Wow....what a fanciful tale, free of any understanding of climate systems.

The key to the Ice Age was temperature--not cold, but warm. Ice comes from snow, and snow from moisture in the air, which in turn comes through evaporation, which comes from warm water.

Just ask someone in Buffalo how much warm water they have in the winters....or anyone in the Northeast whenever there's a Noreaster. Hint to dumbarse that knows little about climatology: snow fall is determined by geography, wind direcion, and position in relation to ANY water source, warm or cold.....not the temperature of the water. Matter of fact, if the water is warm all over the Earth as you claim it was, there will be no snow.....hint....warm water = warm air = rain.

The Ice Age likely occurred soon after the Flood

Baseless and incorrect statement.The last glacial period ended about 11,000 years ago.....way back before "recorded history."

Job didn't live in a glaciated area, but he evidently knew about icy conditions farther north.

A) Someone on here who shall remain nameless...argued for days that nobody knew of the ice "up north"....so thanks for the ammo.

B) Job might have seen "ice", even glacial "ice", but he never saw the ice-age glacial ice unless he went north of the Alps......and that passage from Job does not lead be to think of glaciers, merely of frost and ice caused by some cold weather, not a cycle off glaciation.

Warmer water evaporates much more rapidly than cold.

WOW...give the man a cigar. Ooops...take it away from him as you don't need mega-grains of water-moisture in the air for there to be snow. Sheer ignorance of SIMPLE meterology.

The Flood oceans were quite warm due to the introduction of huge volumes of superheated water from the "fountains of the great deep" and frictional heating by shifting continents, etc.

I see absolutely nothing in Genesis that remotely insunuates the fountains from the deep being superheated water. I see nothing that insinuates heat from continents shifting sufficient enough to warm that much global water.

The immediate post-Flood time was marked by frequent major storms fed by excessive evaporation.

REALLY? You have a weather report from 4351 years ago?

Today, we find numerous remains of civilizations that evidently had been built in coastal areas soon after the Flood.

No, today we find numerous remains of civilizations from the last glacial period that ended 5,000+ years before the supposed flood.

A similar scenario explains the Mediterranean Sea. The rising waters breeched the "dam" at Gibraltar and flooded a low-lying floodplain with inland lakes.

BWAAAAAhahahahah....this guy is fabricating quite a bit.

As the great Flood of Noah's day ended, God instructed the animals and man to multiply and occupy the entire planet.

Except, of course, any of the 100+ species of large meat-eating dinosaurs. They, or course, missed the boat entirely.

As the globe filled with occupants, the ice melted, dividing the continents and trapping the migrants in place.

Fabricated nonsense. you telling me in the time of the Ark that Man had no clue how to make a boat to migrate along coasts? Riiiiiiight.

At least we now understand well why these “scientists” don´t do peer review. Can you imagine if he had submitted this to a scientific journal?
