I am glad to have a confirmation of my impression of Gish, Glenn.

I had an e-mail from him a few months back in which he said he thought we
had much common ground and our differences were not of serious
consequence.

In 1988, I attended a 5 day seminar put on by ICR in Dallas, and had
occasion to speak much with Gish (we had exchanged a number of letters
over the years) and to "break bread" with him and Morris. Later, we
exchange views on his book, "Creation Scientists answer their Critics"
and I wound up reviewing it for PERSPECTIVES. Since then, our contacts
have been few.

I will point out that a number of people have tried to persuade me that
Gish is "evil." The fact is plain that he does rile up some folks a great
deal. In the life to come, we will possibly speak more on these matters.
