A Layman Shoots the Great Ice Age Migration Theory in the Foot

Thousands of years ago the western continents we now know as the Americas were open spaces of land, vegetation and animals. No human had ever stepped foot on these continents until the great ice age migrations around 15 thousand years ago. Scientists believe that the migration happened in two stages, and followed two universally accepted routes, both leading to same destination. The first route passing through the western coastline of the present day United States, and a few thousand years later, the second route by way of the central plains. This is how humans from the Euro-Asian continent, crossed over on ice between the continental plates, entering into North America, and they did not stop there. These migrants continued on until reaching the tropical Yucatan peninsula in Central America, where they settled and founded great cities. Other migrants eventually wandered down as far as the southern tip of Argentina.

The great minds of science and archeology tell us that this is fact. It is taught in schools, and can be quoted in books. Science will present us with artifacts and research to prove these facts. Widely accepted scientific theories rest their validation on these facts. Are they right? Sure they are, as right as anyone else can be, trying to explain what happened fifteen thousand years ago, with nobody around but primitive humans. True, migration is a common trait and aspiration in human beings, and the scientific proof is difficult to dismiss. To science, the facts have been proven to be valid, and these are the present facts. Unfortunately for science, you do not have to be a learned scholar to know that they can get it wrong at times. They have gotten it wrong in the past before. Let us not forget our recent change in the solar system. Now that we no longer have nine 'planets', maybe it is time to reexamine their other scientific facts. We should not reexamine these facts because we suspect scientists of any conspiracy, but because there is no harm in supposing a different thought. Different perspectives often lead to new ideas.

Does the Ice Age Migration theory make sense?
