Dr Snelling teaching in Grand Canyon, 2008
Article image and caption
From the article:
“One of them (National Park Service) said,
ours is a secular society as per our constitution (sic)
and suggested inappropriate interests should be screened out.
This is clear viewpoint discrimination.”
Evolution is so staunchly defended by its believers, that anyone that questions it commits the equivalence of heresy.
“This time, though, he is not going to take being Expelled (sic) lying down. He is fighting back with a lawsuit...”
Stand up and be expelled.
A person calling himself a creation geologist is not a geologist
At best. , he is a geologist pretender
I think this young earth brand of creationism is just flat out wrong, nutty, and it doesn’t matter anyway to anyone’s salvation.
That said, the US government telling him he may not collect a few rock specimens because he is outside the mainstream of science is bigoted and corrupt. If he was Islamic, it would have been immediately granted. And if he is outside the mainstream, who cares? Science used to be about proof.
This Park Service azzwipe would have turned down galileo for wanting to build a telescope. After all, is against the mainstream.
Ah, the objectivity of “science”.
But young earth creationism is junk science nevertheless.
I was ready to say something, but then (as I sometimes do) I read the article.
If all is as the article says this is clearly discriminatory. I mean not letting him collect samples???
But perhaps someone can assist me with this question: why does he need permission to collect samples? Any American should be able to just go onto the park/area and collect anything they want.
Is this on do not enter areas?

Hope and pray he wins his lawsuit.
