To the right we see Mount Rushmore, found in South Dakota, USA. It features the
heads of four former US Presidents -
Do you know how these four 60-
They came into being by four natural processes -
1
In the long winter months over many millennia, the water which penetrated the fine cracks and crevices on the rock face, froze and expanded. This expansion forced off more chunks of rock, large and small. This added more detail to the four heads. They were beginning to look like four presidents. But who could they be?

Over many millennia, fierce gales, with speeds of up to 180 mph, blew off blocks of rock, of varying shapes and sizes. The debris can be seen at the base of the mountain
Over many millennia, the intense heat from the sun’s scorching rays, caused the rock to expand, but in the chill of the night, the same rocks contracted. This incessant cycle of expansion and contraction caused further blocks of rock to fall off into the debris pile below, By this time the shape of four heads was beginning to materialise!

Rainfall over many millennia washed off minute particles of granite. This acted like fine sandpaper, and created the fine detail that made it obvious that the heads belonged to George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln
Nobody in the world believes that the four natural processes given above, could have created the four President heads of Mount Rushmore, even in billions and billions of years. We all know the heads must have had a creator!
The creator was in fact the sculptor, Mr Gutzon Borglum, the son of Danish immigrants.
He took 14 years [1927 -
Gutzon Borglum
Borglum’s own head is a trillion times more complex than the stone heads. Just think
of the complexity of the human eye! The retina has 137,000,000 light sensitive light
cells. It has been estimated that 10 billion calculations occur every second in the
retina before the image even gets to the brain.!!! The brain itself is estimated
to have 100 trillion connections! Dr Isaac Asimov said, “And in Man is a three-
Now here’s the crazy bit! The evolutionist, who readily concedes the stoneheads had a creator, believes the more complex human head didn’t! ‘It happened by chance’, he tells us. Perhaps that’s why the Bible says, “The fool has said in his heart, ‘There is no God’”
Who’s a stonehead?
And that’s how Mount Rushmore came to be!
