A Grand Origin for Grand Canyon

A Grand Origin for Grand Canyon

The author provides a thorough evaluation of the origin of one of the Earth’s most famous icons, Grand Canyon. Citing plentiful geomorphological evidence, he attributes the canyon’s formation to events that occurred near the end of the Noachian Flood. He shows that before the canyon itself could have been eroded, thousands of feet of strata were removed by massive sheet erosion. Then he develops the hypothesis that the canyon was rapidly carved by late-Flood channelized erosion. Oard also cites evidence which demonstrates that the evolutionists’ uniformitarian ideas are very far from providing satisfactory explanations. He also examines the various creationist hypotheses, including the dam-breach hypothesis, and finds them all to be wanting.
