A Holocene Cold Snap In The Year 2,200 B.C. (Before Creation)
If we want to test the timeline proposed by Young-Earth Creationists (YEC’s), we need not look far back in geological time. Given that the accepted and documented age of the Earth is […]

Corals are among the most valuable indicators of past climate conditions, due to their sensitivity to water depth, temperature, and acidity. We can infer from the age and depth of […]
Last Monday, I briefly discussed the origins of oceanic crust and why it contradicts the young-Earth paradigm. Prior to that, I summarized how multiple ice ages have been recorded in Siberian speleothems, […]
Caves are among nature’s most meticulous record keepers. Every year, infiltrating rain or snowmelt dissolves the bedrock in which the cavern has formed and deposits minerals inside the cave as iconic formations—stalactites, stalagmites, flowstone, […]
We all know the tale of the dinosaurs’ demise: some 65 million years ago, a large asteroid impacted the Earth near the modern Yucatan peninsula. The cataclysmic event resulted in […]
From confirmed hypothesis to logical fallacy? I began last post with an overview of Milankovitch Theory and its application in sediment cores, because the most recent issue of the Answers Research Journal has […]
Eccentricity, obliquity, and precession: the longest seasons on Earth At least since the days of Isaac Newton and Johannes Kepler, astronomers have recognized that the Earth does not orbit the sun […]
Well, I did not intend to wait two weeks to finish this story, but a trip to Moscow—among other responsibilities—delayed my getting back to the topic. I am still amazed […]
Caves are perhaps the most fascinating recorders of Earth’s recent climate. Though not the most popular proxy—being stuck in a world of paleoclimatology where tree rings and ice, lake, and […]
