God Created The Grand Canyon

Evolutionary Fantasy
That's right, it ain't true that the Grand Canyon was cut out by the Colorado River over a period of millions of years. The claim is evolutionary fantasy, and its promoters merely theorize. Millions of you have been deceived into accepting this theory as fact, when in truth there exists no heavy-duty evidence to authenticate it.
Allow me to tell you why I take this position. It takes only a little bit of logic. The Nile River in Egypt is as old as the Colorado River, perhaps even older. If age and continual flow are the key factors, why hasn't the Nile River cut out a canyon as awesome, or at least similar to, the Grand Canyon? Then there's the Mississippi, the Ohio, the Rio Grande, and many other old waterways. Why haven't they hewed out canyons? Well, why?

The answer is obvious. Time and continual flow have little if anything to do with canyons whose walls are sheer rock, like the Grand Canyon. And we'll even allow for a little erosion along the way. That still doesn't cut it, however. For if erosion carved out the Grand Canyon, why hasn't erosion carved out other old waterways, thus forming canyons of them? Well, why? Again, age and continual flow have little to do with canyons whose walls are compacted rock.


The Canyon's Inner Gorges
If you have ever hiked the Canyon, you have observed, as I have, thousands of inner gorges---all solid rock. Many of them are as deep and as high as the Canyon itself. Now tell me:

If the Colorado River is responsible for carving out the Grand Canyon, how did
the inner gorges develop?
The great Colorado could not have shaped them. The raging billows of the river would have by-passed them. I can see the river's back flow pervading the gorges at one time, at least fractionally, but carving them out? No way! And I'm allowing for a small fraction of erosion in the process. Erosion, however, is not the author of the inner gorges, or of the Canyon itself. We must lo...
