The Little Ice Age is not 'The Younger Dryas.' Your Thread title is incredibly off base and misleading.
"
At least five major ice ages have occurred throughout Earths history: the earliest was over 2 billion years ago, and the most recent one began approximately 3 million years ago and continues today (yes, we live in an ice age!).
Currently, we are in a warm interglacial that began about 11,000 years ago."
Ice Ages â What are they and what causes them? - Utah Geological Survey
The topic then is about how the comets were claimed to have killed the mammoths (which we usually see associated with ice and cold in the past) actually didn't kill them!
Besides, the imaginary time is so foolish that one needs to be delusional to take any of it even a little bit seriously! The 3 million years is actually more likely something like less than 5000 years! So, when they are talking about comets bring the oceans, and comets maybe bring life or the stuff of life to earth, and comets killing off this or that....it is all hooey! In this case they got busted on one particular cometdunnit claim.
They are two very different time periods.
Not like science thinks!!
This study you have linked casts more doubt and creates more holes with a controversial theory that has already been torn in several other areas as well.
Hey, when something is busted, it is busted! Why would it NOT also be busted in other arenas??
I'm a bit confused as to why it is even being referred to as a theory as I always knew it as a hypothesis.
Funny how folks seem to be apologists for failed science
However the Impact Hypothesis for the Younger Dryas is well... an attempt at explaining the cause of an observed cold period.
Of course, but more specifically an attempt at explaining it omitting God and the flood and Scripture etc. A failed attempt as we now see
There is no doubt cast at all on the Younger Dryas as having happened.
Foolishness. The cold times after the nature change and/or flood can be called anything we like! Of course it was cold, but forget the Dryas fable!!
The question remains as to what was the cause of the Younger Dryas.
Bingo! In other words you don't know. That is the price science pays for keeping itself in the dark in an institutional methodical way!! Talk about dark ages!! Welcome to the darkest age!
The Little Ice Age is just a whole different thing all together.
Great. But it all depends how we use the term. Many used to think there was a big ice age. No? Later they cooked up several.
"due to what science claimed." ? No. A group of scientists came up with a hypothesis and presented it to the greater world of Science. Other scientists looked at it and conducted their own analysis and studies and found a great many holes in the Impact Hypothesis. There was never a "what science claimed" because there has never been a scientific consensus as to the cause of the Younger Dryas cooling.
If you want to play it that way, then I guess we can say science never claims squat! Those folks who work for science and purportedly are scientists make claims all over the place. Some of these claims are fairly widely accepted before they get busted
