That doesn't jive with the perfectly preserved elephants rhino's emerging from the ice in the arctic with "fresh meat still on them.
It suggests that the ice ice started suddenly, but far more recently, around the biblical flood age.
The last ice age started suddenly about 117 million years ago. And was it caused by a major boloid? 74 million years ago, the temperature took a major dip destroying all but 5 or 10,000 humans. Turns out the cause was a monster volcano called Toba, which left a crater 18 by 65 miles. Then around 18,000 years age things began to warm up until about 13,000 years ago another 1,000 year cold wave hit. Now the thinking is this cold wave and the flash frozen mammoths was also caused by a North American boloid event. Yes the sun does have an impact, but so does major vulcanism, and extra-terresterial impact events. We have no way now of predicting when the next catastrophe will hit us. All we can do is learn how to be prepared and hope it is not too big.

If you read the whole article you will see that he says that there were abrupt temperature swings of 30 degrees F. One, or more, of these could have caused the instant freezing of Rinos and Mammoths.
