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.
