Thanks. That keeps him firmly in Wakeup Sleeper's column. Unfortunately for WS's point, it also means Austin isn't doing science. The ICR tells us so itself:

In addition to a firm commitment to creationism and to full Biblical inerrancy and authority, the ICR Graduate School is committed to traditional education and to high standards of academic excellence. Each student's graduate program will consist predominantly of classroom lecture courses, with interaction between instructors and students, plus a research investigation and M.S. thesis. ICR's highly qualified and experienced faculty is in itself assurance of a rigorous and creative educational experience for its graduates, equipping them both for productive careers in their chosen fields and for making a significant contribution to the ongoing worldwide revival of theistic creationism.

IOW, it's not about science at all, it's about creationism. They've decided in advance where the evidence will lead.

Very Red Queen. Very Lewis Carroll.

That's creation "science" for you. Here are some statements of belief from three of these organizations for you:

Creation Research Society Statement of Belief

Tenets of Scientific Creationism

The Creation Studies Institute Mission
