I was wondering if anyone else saw the article on the first annual gathering of
Creation Geologists in last weeks New York Times Magazine? Great reading. An
interesting and dramatic account of the first conference of creation geologists
as they struggle through the perplexing geologic questions of the day....such
as "how did the Grand Canyon form?", "how did fossils get layered so
consistently?" ( It had to do with thier distance from the sea shore when Noahs
flood hit) and my favorite topic; "how big was Noahs Ark?".
Particularly poignant was an account of the geologists on a field trip
picking up fossils and pocketing them in a state park ( what about thou shall
not steal? )....and the young son of one of the leaders of the group asked "how
did all these fossils get here?"....to which his dad answered "the flood
brought them here". Someone should tell that kid that parents always lie; Santa
Claus, the Easter Bunny, the tooth Fairy, and now a big world encompassing
flood that leave deposits of fossils in an Ohio State Park. Amazing. God help
us all.
