The book, which claims the famous area can be no older than a few thousand years (contrary to the claims of traditional secular science, which contends the canyon is millions of years old), was unanimously approved by a panel of park and gift shop personnel, the Los Angeles Times reported.”

Wow ... approved by a panel of panel of gift shop personnel!! I guess that trumps a few thousand PhD's, Carbon and Neutronic dating, the fossil record, core samples, computer modelling and a wee bit of common sense.

It was some 24 PHD's who wrote the book. The current evolution establishment is not debunking this on it's merits, they are simply trying to get it banned because it contradicts the established view.

I laughed aloud when I saw this as well. I believe in ID, but have little use for the attention grabbing hucksterism displayed by guys like Hal Lindsey. He's part of the Jan and Paul Crouch, TBN circus and has an assigned seat in the make-it-up-as-you-go school of religious broadcasters.

> common sense

Plain chemicals becoming alive due only to addition of energy, and animals turning into humans, and that observable short term devolution turns into evolution if you do it long enough -- common sense?

Oh, are you going to tell me that I'm not up to date on evolutionary "FACTS" -- that no credible evolutionist now says that plain chemicals can be stimulated into life by adding energy or that animals turn into humans? Please do so!
