A creationist goons very rarely hold "a Ph.D. in biology from the University of California at Berkeley and a Ph.D. in theology from Yale University".
In 1976, Jonathan Wells a student in Moon's seminary, answered his leader's call. Wells writes,
Father's [Moon's] words, my studies, and my prayers convinced me that I should devote my life to destroying Darwinism, just as many of my fellow Unificationists had already devoted their lives to destroying Marxism. When Father chose me to enter a PhD program in 1978, I welcomed the opportunity to prepare myself for battle. Source.

Thank you for bringing this up. As I read through this thread I was anticipating posting Well's quote; you beat me to it. Personally, I find it perverted that anyone would go through the trouble of pursuing a PhD merely to acquire a credential that will help them to masquerade as credible - he clearly did not do it on his own dime. I did a cursory search for his dissertation from home and came up empty, but tomorrow the new term starts, so if I have time I'll take a look at the databases at the U.

An excellent goal, imo. BTW, Marxists have a tenacious hold on irrationality almost equal to that of a Darwinist
