What do creationists believe? How was Chinese mythology created? What is Dreamtime in Aboriginal mythology? How was Earth created in Norse mythology? What religions believe in the Book of Genesis? What was the purpose of the Sermon on the Mount?
These types of creationists fall into two main classifications: Young Earth Creationists, who believe that the Earth is between six and ten thousand years old; and Old Earth Creationists, who generally accept the scientific measurement of the Earth's age at 4.5 billion years old. Within these ...
Fodor and Piattelli-Palmarini believe that the spandrels problem is much deeper. While Gould and Lewontin had a nice insight about “correlations of growth,” they ultimately affirmed a “very sophisticated kind of adaptationism” because they took for granted that there can be a genuine fact ...
(an evangelical theologian who has written a widely used Systematic Theology textbook, one that I used in some of my Bible classes in college), David Barton (a pseudo–historian), and John Morris (president emeritus of the Institute of Creation Research, a young earth creationist organization)...

Ditto the endless assaults on Michael Mann despite dozens of subsequent studies having confirmed the findings of the 'hockey stick'. Similarly, whenever I've discussed evolution with creationists they have been endlessly fixated on supposed errors by/flaws of Darwin... as if there hadn't been ...
Why do scientists not just shrug shoulders when it comes to creation or intelligent design in the way they shrug shoulders when the talk comes to cold fusion, by and large a discredited part of science? The fact that they do engage with the creationists shows that there are stakes of a ...
model stifles original thought, causes friction through failure and deceives us into thinking we know things we don’t. Historically, evolution seems the accepted path whether it be biologically, psychologically or sociologically. Why do we become creationists when we replace the past by the future...
throes of a midlife crisis. Yet the writers positioned it as Miranda evolving and clearly expected us to embrace her journey. If this is evolution, consider me officially a Creationist. Gosh, even the way she knocked on Che’s door that one time when she was “craving her some Che” ...
