Transcript

Secular scientists tell us that the ice cores show tens of thousands of years of Earth’s history. But they assume millions of years and that present-day slow, gradual processes have produced the ice layers.

The ice cores need to be interpreted, and our starting point determines how we interpret the evidence. When we start with the Bible’s history, we know there was a global flood just a few thousand years ago. The flood would’ve brought about an ice age. This ice age was responsible for laying down a large part of today’s ice cores in a very short period of time. The ice cores are not tens of thousands of years old!
