It’s been revised since this edition. I was homeschooled with the “for Christian Schools” textbooks (and was sent to college at the University that produced them) I was just young enough to get the newer editions as they were being rewritten, my cousins who were 4 grades ahead of me weren’t as lucky and had the version shown in the picture. The versions I had were slightly better, they at least didn’t have this particular nonsense in them. But they still all taught a very warped view of science, and I was in my mid-twenties before I stopped believing in Creationism. The last ~10 years since then has taken both a lot of work to learn about reality, but has also been quite a lot of fun. Science is really cool if you aren’t stopping all the time to try to fit God in somehow.
But surely that’s some old book and is no longer used to teach today, right? Right???
