(Jason) let us all know that:

 

>Yes, I believe there was a global flood.

 

There's no evidence for it. None.

 

Also, Jason--I answered your questions.

Gish is a con man. It's not great that he is allowed to teach his lies

anywhere. Churches should feel shame that they let him teach such

nonsense.

First, it's their right. Second, it is exactly what I would expect. The

surprise would be that they hired him in the first place.

It's really simple Jason, once the earth was uninhabitable. Now there is

life. Life doesn't 'evolve' from non-life. Life can begin from non-life.

Regardless of how life started, evolution now directs the distribution and

diversity of life on earth.

I'm glad you believe that Jason. Since the world of science says that there

is no evidence of a global flood perhaps you can explain why you think there

was.

Uhh... they do Jason. You have a difficult time separating the actual cause

of tenure denial. It is because that creation 'science' has no science with

which to support it. Scientists get screw ball ideas all of the time but

there is some measure of logic and reason to their hypothesis and usually a

shard of evidence. Take away your crutch, the bible, and there is no

creation 'science'.

I'm curious Jason, what did he teach the students? Since there is no science

involved with creation 'science' I fail to see how he could teach anything.

Ah yes, old "Bullfrog" Gish. Tell me Jason, do you think that real science

is done by public debate?

That is great news. I saw Dr. Gish debate a professor from the local state

college. The auditorium was full of people. They advertised the debate in

the ICR newsletter and at many of the churches. As a result, lots of

Christians attended the debate.

Believe it or not, they probably teach courses like that at some colleges.

What do they learn from these 'debates'? That is takes longer to refute a

lie than it does to speak it? Do a search on "Bullfrog" Gish for an idea as

to the character of your hero.

Mentioning god or the scriptures has nothing to do with anything. Gish wrote

a book that was refuted immediately after it was published by those who were

qualified to do so, we call them paleontologists.

No it isn't, Gish and his ilk are telling lies and misleading people.

How does that help understanding? You are completely confused because

you believed his lies.

That is why he was able to get away with so many lies.

But the organization that he was part of is still telling lies and you

are still being misled by them.

Duane Gish is a liar. The fact that he can get someone like you to

believe his lies does not make him honest or a scientist. He is neither.

The DNA in dogs is not the same as that in cats. Does that mean that

Not if the school acted properly. If he tried to teach it, the proper

action would be to dismiss him if he insisted on continuing such

behavior. Did you think you had a point?

The difference being that he was not teaching a course, which no

responsible school would have allowed.

Gish never apologized for the false claims he made or acknowledged the
