A Giant Step Backwards!

Disturbing news that the signage of the National Trust at the Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland includes an 'alternative' creationist account of its origins (http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2012/jul/06/creationism-giants-causeway-national-trust). Although it is suggested that this is merElsy a cunning way of attracting the 'crank pound' , this is a distinctly dodgy thing to do. The causeway's geological origins are hardly much in doubt and its presence has no relevance to arguments about the validity of the theory of evolution.
