You can declare that certain types of people not to your liking be disallowed from teaching but you will not threaten my livelihood, or you will have a fight on your hands that you really don’t want to see.

<><><><

You’re correct. I believe that some should not be in teaching positions. Very different from being disallowed. If you can get a teaching job with your attitude, all the more power to you. The evidence you have provided me suggests you are one of those people who should be in a different profession from teaching. Someone disagrees with you they have the word ‘faggy’ thrown at them. Not exactly the hallmark of a quality teacher.

I think it best for me to longer comment on your perceived threats from anonymous internet forum posters.

Excellent article and post. It’s very much needed on FR. Christians should be the pro-science religion. Leave anti-science to Muslims and others. It’s through science that God’s handiwork is shown.

This book concludes much the same thing: http://www.amazon.com/The-Science-God-Convergence-Scientific/dp/1439129584/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1412942184&sr=8-1&keywords=Gerald+Schroeder

For several years, both Roger Wiens and John Baumgardner participated in the same (Christian) worldviews discussion group - these lunchtime meetings occurred at the national lab where they were both employed.

Here is a sample of the books that were discussed in those years:

1994 Schlossberg, Herbert Idols for Destruction, Thomas Nelson, 1983.

Johnson, Phillip Reason in the Balance, IVP, 1995.

Behe, Michael Darwin’s Black Box, Free Press, 1996.

Pearcy and Thaxton The Soul of Science , Crossway, 1994

Rohl, David M. Pharoahs and Kings, Crown, 1995.

Vitz, Paul C. Psychology as Religion, 2nd Ed. ,Eerdmans, 1994.

Beisner, Calvin Where Garden Meets Wilderness, Eerdmans, 1997.

Ross, Hugh Creation and Time, NavPress, 1994.

Zacharias, Ravi Can Man Live Without God?, Word, 1994.

James W. Sire The Universe Next Door 2000 William Dembski Intelligent Design

***

Roger Wiens is an “old earther”.

John Baumgardner is a “young earther”.

Both are PhDs in science.

In that same time period, John Baumgardner was participating in the RATE project,

http://www.icr.org/rate/

and he wrote this article then:

http://www.icr.org/article/carbon-14-evidence-for-recent-global/

During all those years, John was never able to convince Roger that the earth is young, and Roger was never able to identify any holes in John’s scientific arguments.

This information was provided by an eyewitness, who was present at all of those lunch meetings for all those years.

There you have it.
