Well, my mom always said I was a slow learner, but this kinda solves the
mystery of Art's view on origins for me. Nothing need be said beyond
this.
Many times on the reflector we hear of conspiracy stories on how the
modern secular university inhibits Christians from seeing the "light" of
YEC or PC. Inversely, can it be said that at religiously based
institutions a similar dynamic occurs?
How about Art? Do you have to sign some sort of creationist statement of
faith at the college where you are teaching that philosophy of science
course? Any chance it is skewing you, to use your words, from "being
objective about evolution?"
