Summary of the Program
Considered the icon of canyons, the Grand
Canyon is a masterpiece of water erosion. Conventional scientists tell us that the
canyon formed over millions of years by “slow water erosion.” If this is true,
where is evidence of the carved-out materials? Biblical scientists, on the other
hand, point out the many evidences of a catastrophic history in the formation of
the canyon.
Geologists Doug Bennett and Brent H. Carter participated in a
lengthy field review in the summer of 2006 with seven other creation scientists
to review and evaluate the evidences on the origin of Grand Canyon. Both
geologists believe the canyon was formed by catastrophic water action related to
the Biblical Flood.
Brent will
present the post-flood origin of the canyon whereas Doug will present that the
canyon formed in the latter stages of the flood. This will be a
friendly forum to present the evidences of the Grand Canyon genesis in debate
format. What will the presented evidences tell you?
