A major point in Warrens work is the geological results that started emerging in the late 19th century - where large amounts of fossils and coal were found on Spitzbergen - proving that the entire polar region had been TROPICAL.

A consequence of that is necessarily that the phenomenon called ice-time must have been a limited period of time - even if the duration migth have been thousands or millions of years.

Todays geologists have settled on a period of 35 to 55/65 million years as the start of ice-time. Since then the temperature of the earth have varied in "cosmic cycles" according to the thermodynamics of the melting-process and the temperature-balance of the atmosphere.

10.000-12.000 years ago there were (again) some major changes in that balance - leading to a jump in the general temperature with about + 17 celsius in the northern hemisphere. In the equatorian area the rise would have been far less, but still some.

We normally adress this perod as "the end" of ice-time. To be more precise we should call it "the end of the Eurasian and North American ice-time" - since we still have had some "ice-time" left - on Greenland and the Arctic, as well as in the Antarctic.

Today we seem to experience the final end of the northern ice-time, since the ice on Greenland and the arctic ocean is rapidly disapearing. This imply that in a few decades we would - after millions of years of melting - return to the nature and climte of the original globe - without ice-caps and consequent winters.

At this point we would be getting back to the conditions of the globe as they are described in our very oldest myths - where the ball is inhabitable all over the place and the north-pole area would be nicely tempered.

* The myths that best have preserved these memories are known to exist in eastern Asia (India, Tibet, China).  Conseqently the modern western intelligence have tended to ascribe the sources of civilisation to the area with the oldest and most genuine myths, which to us have been the eastern hemisphere.

Today we can add the Mayan myths to the time-lines of the Rigveda. Moreover we have learnt to understand that also Greek, Norse and Finno-Ugric myths ALSO bear memories of the same, original "paradise-time" - were the human beeing originated and lived (rather) happily, until the ice-time arrived as in a cataclysm. The first one to make a solid and stringent documentation of the concurrent descriptions from all these myths - declaring A north pole as the cradle of humanity - was prof. William F. Warren. Adding the emerging understanding of his contemporary experts within geology he could even prove that this cradle actually could have been rocked within the geograpical pole-area.

Duely I think we can be open to discuss this alternative as a valid hypothesis - understanding that the genuinly inspired brigthness of a Cayce and a Urantia have been utterly important ligthhouses in a period  of religious, cultural and political fundamentalism - when ancient times were not only forgotten, but even dispised and ridiculed.

Adding the valuable pioneer-works of the academia, from the last century, doesnt change that value - even if it specifies and corrects some major details. A good academian I used to work with once recommended me to "get aknowledged" with the works of Edgar Cayce. After discussing the realms of "seers" and "mindreaders" in a general context he concluded that; "an honest "seer" can normally be trusted on WHAT he refers to seeing, but they can hardly point to WHEN, exactly, things are happening or occuring..."
