Journey Beneath the Grand Canyon Rim
One characteristic of false teachers and cults is to isolate their people, which is to keep them from interacting with and learning from other people. If you study on it, biblical creationists are the opposite. Especially the scientists. They have friends and professional colleagues who hold to secular views of science. However, they still work together and even co-author scientific papers, then shake hands and part friendly. Biblical creationists, whether scientists or the rest of us, are not isolated from old-Earth views. Consider the Grand Canyon. Colorado River Rafting, Flickr / Gordon Tarpley ( CC BY-SA 2.0 ) Many people journey to the Grand Canyon in the formerly United States. Some keep it simple, spend a few minutes, make "wow" sounds, and leave. Others get more involved with hiking, rafting the Colorado River, and more. Rafting for tourist can be a rather short jaunt of a few hours, but certain creationists wanted to get serious about it: nine days and eight nights.
