Reply #14: All 6 Grand Canyon bookstores carry in their "inspirational" (?!) section [View All]

[Nothing Without Hope]

a book on how Noah's Flood created the Grand Canyon. It was the subject of a NYT article. I found this in a correction to the article:

Creationism and Science Clash at Grand Canyon Bookstores

By CORNELIA DEAN (NYT) 958 words
Late Edition - Final , Section F , Page 4 , Column 2

Correction Appended

ABSTRACT - Book Grand Canyon: A Different View presents creationist idea of how Grand Canyon was formed by God during flood to wipe out wickedness of man; is currently sold at all six Grand Canyon National Park bookstores despite concerns that contents contradict scientific view of how canyon was formed; Brad Wallis, Grand Canyon Assn executive director, says book is marketed in inspirational section of store not as scientific book; critics say just carrying book infers that park endorses contents; sale of book is under review.

Don't know about the pamphlet, or whether Hoffman was involved in it, but it's all of a piece with the policies of this Administration.
