How old's the Grand Canyon? Well, we can't tell you. Really.

Um ... what?

No, really. Really. I mean ...WHAT?!

Did you say ... did you actually say ... you aren't allowed to publish or tell the public how old the rock in the Grand Canyon is?

And you have to sell a creationist book which states the Grand Canyon was created by Noah's Flood? Now, c'mon. That just reads like a bad fanfic.

Come on we all know Paul Bunyan created the grand canyon. Lets get our facts straight here people.

But you are right, that is dumb.

Let's start a new group "People who are falling off the left end of the spectrum now because of George W. Bush's crappy politics".

I can't wait until election time. >.

UM, YES. And our subtitle is: "And Also People Who Are For The Inclusion Of Common Sense In, Say, Science".

You don't look a day over 10,000! heyheyrenay January 3 2007, 20:35:13 UTC
I remember when I posted about this when it was still a baby problem: here. It was concerning the sale of the book and how the Bush administration was supporting it. I was told I was overreacting, that it was "just a book" and that nothing bad was being predicted by these actions. Because I have denounced the current administration several times, automatically I have to be demanding that any book they support be removed from the shelves (which I wasn't). No one else saw were it was headed besides me? Right to this moment.

Christians are free to think whatever the want about how whatever part of our Earth was created, but I don't believe they should be allowed a monopoly over the Grand Canyon just to comfort themselves with the lie of the earth not being a day over 10,000 years old.

SORRY, GUYS. WE HAVE TO SHARE.

I did not see your post or I would have referenced it! *laughs* Great minds and all, also known as OH MY FUCKING GOD WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE.

It's ridiculous. Yes, we all have to share. Everybody has freedom to express their own opinions. This means everybody. It means that strict-creationists have to allow evolutionists to express themselves, as well as vice versa.

But despite that - as a scientist, I'm basically totally appalled.
