Your post spent a lot of words repeating your prior points.

Unfortunately, you failed to respond to my post other than to question my credentials.

Not only have I taught in college, I taught a specific class in biology for non-science majors.

When the creationism issue came up (only once in a serious way) I explained that the student was in my class to learn what scientists thought. There was no problem since the student involved could see my point. We did have a few interesting after class discussions.

You know something about creation, resurrection and flood myths that the rest of us don't, perhaps? New aspects of monotheism in dynastic Egypt? A previously unknown and unanticipated Sumerian translation? New insights on the development of winter solstice myths or agriculture and resurrection myths? And with this wonderful knowledge that you alone possess, rather than share it respectfully with fellow scholars, you would make the profs life miserable. That would be your goal?

I know what the Bible teaches about all this and it surely is not lies. Are you telling me that I should not believe the creation story as written in the Bible? Have you research enough to disprove the story of creation as detailed in the Bible? No you have not. Instead, you choose by your own free will to accept the theories and writings of others who choose to believe anything else but the truth as written in the Bible. Why is it so hard for you to accept the creation story?

If you have read my posts, I said I would be courteous. I would share this wonderful knowledge I possess, most definitely. But I would challenge in class a professor who stated goal was to bring a 'slap' across the face on any who dared believe differently than himself. The professor would find I am not one to back down and accept his lies to be taught as truth. That would be my goal, yes. Signed, your courteous 'disruptor'.
