In the mid-1980s the breakup of his marriage led to Sanford becoming a born again Christian and a young earth creationist. More recently, he has written a book entitled Genetic Entropy & the Mystery of the Genome (2005)[3] in which he claims that the genome is deteriorating and therefore could not have evolved. However, Sanford's claims have received little attention from the scientific community, and have not been published in peer-reviewed scientific journals.
In 2005 he was a speaker for the creation-evolution Kansas evolution hearings, during which he denied the principle of common descent and "humbly offered ... that we were created by a special creation, by God." He also stated that he believed the age of the Earth was "Between 5[,000] and 100,000" years.
