From a creationist friend, on the Jaroff article:

“Fantasy…nonsense…ill-informed…scientific vs. religious” and so the story goes. Is it any wonder that true “scientific” data is totally ignored for a philosophy of science with not one shred of evidence or data to verify long ages? One must be cautious and note that when such men as Jaroff claim to be in line with true science, they mean nothing of the kind. What they do presuppose is a philosophic expression of what the Bible calls “science falsely so-called” (1 Timothy 6:20) which Scripture labels as “false,” “empty [of content] babbling.” It is futile mouthing of what they were conditioned to receive and/or what they themselves think is science without once looking at the nature of scientific inquiry at all. All they would have to do is go back to the videos of 23 years ago of Mt. St. Helens to see just how foolish were their statements against rapid formation of canyons.
