A college professor hostile towards Christians? Who woulda thunk? I think its a hiring requirement now with verifiable references required on the resume.

There are numerous differences between Creationism and Intelligent Design. Creationism is basically a religious approach, although understandably its proponents tried to disguise it as science after the Supreme Court declared that religion would not be allowed in the public schools. It's basically a response to a distorted interpretation of the Constitution that tries to get religion in the back door. It would be better if we could appoint some decent judges and allow open and fair discussion of religion in the schools via the front door.
Intelligent Design, on the other hand, actually is a scientific approach, like it or not. It does not begin with Genesis, but begins with the nature of the universe as we find it. It does not claim to know whether the intelligence that designed the universe is the God of the Bible or something else, although people are welcome to draw their own conclusions.
The problem is, this joker will still pretend that they are the same, and that they are myths, and that the ONLY scientific theory possible is Darwinist. No other theories may be allowed to lift their heads in the public schools, now and forever more.
Christ gets no respect, but pagan elephant gods, sacred cows, and pieces of rock do.
Fundies doesn't bother me. Now "happy clapper" is just waaaaaaay over the top.
Okay. I thought "Intelligent-Design" is the belief that God created the universe, but not in the exact way the Bible portends in Genesis. Is this correct?
More open minded, non judgemental, non partisanship from our friends in the University system.
