It’s difficult to believe that about 263 feet of ice accumulated over these planes in forty-eight years. This works out to about 5.5 feet of ice accumulation per year.31 This contradicts the presumption that each layer of polar ice is an annual layer. It’s become obvious that vast periods of time are not needed to accumulate many layers of ice in the arctic regions. As it turns out, each ice layer most likely represent a snowfall or a freeze/thaw cycle. In other words, there may be several, if not hundreds, of ice layers forming each year. Dr Carl Wieland with Creation Ministries International sums it up nicely:

Evolutionists and other long-agers often say that ‘the present is the key to the past’. In that case, the 3000-metre-long ice core [brought up by the joint European Greenland Ice-core Project (GRIP) in Greenland in 1990–1992] would only represent some 2,000 years of accumulation. Allowing of course for compression of lower layers, (which is also offset by the inevitable aftermath of a global Flood, namely much greater precipitation and snowfall for a few centuries32) there is ample time in the 4,000 or so years since Noah’s day for the existing amounts of ice to have built up—even under today’s generally non-catastrophic conditions.33

Coral Reefs: The Great Barrier Reef is the world’s largest coral reef system composed of over 2,900 individual reefs and 900 islands stretching for over 1,600 miles covering an area of approximately 133,000 sq miles. The reef is located off the coast of Australia and is large enough to be seen from outer space. The CRC Reef Research Centre estimates the age of the Great Barrier Reef at about 500,000 years old, but says it has not been present in its current form for all of that time. It estimates the present, living reef structure at 6–8,000 years old.

Drs. John Whitcomb and Henry Morris cited a study that found 20 centimeters of coral reef growth in five years. They wrote, “This rate of growth could certainly account for most of the coral reef depths around the world even during the few thousand years since the Deluge.”34

Dr Walt Brown agrees. He said:

Estimated old ages for the Earth are frequently based on “clocks” that today are ticking at extremely slow rates. For example, coral growth rates were thought to have always been very slow, implying that some coral reefs must be hundreds of thousands of years old. More accurate measurements of these rates under favorable growth conditions now show that no known coral formation need be older than 3,400 years.35

DNA: According to many sources, two microbiologists, Raul J. Cano and Monica K. Borucki, have brought ancient bacteria back to life! It’s widely reported that over 1,000 types of ancient bacteria and other microorganisms have been recently resuscitated; they say some of these life-forms date as far back as 135 million years. Wow. . .I would say that’s a long nap! Many scientists point out that Cano and Borucki took every effort possible to rule out contamination.
