Many of the other theses were in the engineering area. One student is completing his masters thesis on designing and engineering a computer operated feed-back program in the production of cable coating which will increase quality control by use of sensors (heat, thickness, color, etc.) so that feedback is more direct and immediate, reducing the need for destructive testing as well as waste when quality control goes beyond the required tolerances.

The notion of God believing in something doesn't make much sense to me, but the notion of God "believing in" Darwinism is less nonsensical than the notion of God "believing in" Creationism (as it applies to biology).
Too little, too late; it was because of Spock that I was left to cry in my crib until the rigid timetable said it was feeding time. Now I know I can blame Darwin for that, too!
But it all comes down to what you mean by "Creationism". If you mean "anything God does", then yes, God would have to be a creationist. If you mean the trivially refuted myth from Genesis (which is typically what people mean when they capitalize the word "Creationism"), then my answer would be, "a sensible one".
That's a notch above graduate assistant, but not as well paid. Where is he now? The Medical College of Ohio does not list a Department of Experimental Pathology.
You have that exactly backwards. It was Spock who argued against feeding schedules.
That was too easy. Next!
Oops! Darwin is still to blame!
Thanks for the link. Uh ... I mean, bless you, my son. From now on, you may call me "Rev." (If you could find it in your heart to send me an appropriate love offering, say about ten bucks, that would be nice. You'll be glad you did.)
