— Humans sinned, and that brought death and suffering into the world (and, ultimately, the necessity of salvation through Jesus Christ).— God drowned almost all people and breathing animals in a global flood because of human wickedness. God spared Noah and his family, instructing him to build a large ark and bring aboard pairs of each animal kind to preserve them from extinction.

— The flood explains geological phenomena such as the Grand Canyon.According to the vast, long-standing scientific consensus, the above biological and geological claims are absurd and completely lacking in evidence.The consensus is that the Earth is billions of years old; that humans and other life forms evolved from earlier forms over millions of years; and that mountains, canyons and other geological features are due to millions of years of tectonic upheaval and erosion. A 2014

found 98% of American scientists accept evolution.“Evolution and the directly related concept of deep time are essential parts of science curricula,” says the Geological Society of America.

Evolution is “one of the most securely established of scientific facts,” says the National Academy of Sciences. The academy urges that public schools stick to the scientific consensus and that creationism is not a viable alternative. Creationists, it said, “reverse the scientific process” by beginning with an inflexible conclusion, rather than building evidence toward a conclusion.

This is, after all, Kalaallit Nunaat — Greenlandic for the “Land of the People” or the “Land of the Greenlanders.”

Most of those 57,000 Greenlanders are Indigenous Inuit. They take pride in a culture and traditions that have helped them survive for centuries in exceptionally rugged conditions. In their close link to nature. In belonging to one of the most beautiful, remote, untouched places on Earth.Many in this semi-autonomous territory are worried and offended by
