I know, some of you don’t like it when I insult complete fucking morons by associating them with Bush, but it has to be done.

Courtesy of Bad Astronomy we have this report:

“In order to avoid offending religious fundamentalists, our National Park Service is under orders to suspend its belief in geology,” stated PEER Executive Director Jeff Ruch. “It is disconcerting that the official position of a national park as to the geologic age of the Grand Canyon is ‘no comment.’”

Now I blame Bush for this because he is the one at the top of the pyramid. He could change this and he doesn’t. Bush, and his administration, should state clearly that the Grand Fucking Canyon is millions if not billions of years old, the earth is billions of years old and the universe is 13.7 +/- 0.1 billion years old.

Young earth creationists are free to believe whatever faith-based nonsense they want but our government has a duty to present the scientific consensus on issues like this and there is absolutely no scientific disagreement on the age of the Grand Fucking Canyon.
