Grand Canyon; Evidence in Support of Biblical Catastrophe  

 

The Grand Canyon provides a tremendous example of the results of large-scale erosion, which is important in developing an understanding of the mechanisms likely to have been active in the Biblical Noachian deluge. There are several creation science organizations that offer tours to the Grand Canyon, and rafting trips down the Colorado river with instructors that can illustrate the relevance of the monument for creation geologists.

For many years creation scientists have taught that the Grand Canyon was formed rapidly when a large lake on the northern border of the Colorado Plateau broke through its barrier and eroded the canyon rapidly. In contrast, secular science has taught that the Colorado river eroded the canyon over millions of years based on the uniformitarian assumptions. However, researchers have only recently determined that the Grand Canyon is a geologic infant in comparison to previous estimates, and it has been concluded that indeed much of the canyon was eroded rapidly as a result of dam failure.
