Yet another source for some of the text has been located! Behold:

http://www.thecolefamily.com/letters/ed042988.htm

At least two of the five arguments appear in this source, dated 1988, with minor changes in phrasing.

It is unclear who is copying from whom, but it sure looks like there's lots of unattributed ideas being cribbed in the anti-Evolutionary/anti-Big Bang landscape.

You can have fun tracking misspellings around. Somebody quote-mined a Lubenow book (creationist, anyway) and misspelled "Turkana" as "Tukana."

A Google on "boy from Tukana".

Of course, the list grows a little more every time I post about it.

Well, hell - there really isn't any such thing as an original creationist thought, is there?

They don't care. They want to share their "faith" with anyone who wants to join the effort to stop science teaching in our schools.
