Thanks Chuck
Some years back, Brian Dunlop, pastor of Lighthouse Baptist Church in San Dimas, California, prepared an 8-tape study on evolution entitled The Fool Hath Said In His Heart There Is No God, Psalm 14:1.
In the course of the study, he states, "Evolution is a device used by men who do not want to give account to a Holy God. And it is from the pit of hell." Quite apt, I think.
A book entitled The Evolution Handbook by Vance Ferrell is a recent publication condensing 3,000 pieces of scientific data refuting evolution. It is well worth studying. It is interesting that in this country, virtually no-one really uses anything Darwin wrote in their day-to-day work. But most engineers, scientists and technologists repeatedly use the work of Christian creationist scientist William Thomson, better known as Lord Kelvin, an Ulsterman. He devised the absolute temperature scale, which is indispensable to much engineering design work.
By contrast, evolutionists using evolution just don't cut it when it comes to doing anything of lasting value.

Chuck, I have enjoyed seeing you on the screen, and have appreciated your good-natured acceptance of the spoofs that have appeared. I've known all along that you were a decent fellow, sadly rare in Hollywood, but this is the first piece of your writing I've seen, and I am delighted. Your point, that evolution vs creation is in many ways a continuation of the centuries old, naturalism vs theism debate was excellent and germaine. The selected quotations illuminated that aspect of our Founders thinking quite well. Having said that, I nonetheless do not endorse your conclusion, as it relates to the science classroom. (Notwithstanding, the Louisianna law may be a good one. As our Lord said, "Wisdom is known by her children.") I have been a Believer for over 50 years, and am a degreed engineer with significant scientific training. As a hobby, I read in paleontology, geology, and the creation/evolution debate. I have misgivings about the intelligent-design initiative, and completely reject the Creationist, particularly the Young Earth Creationist, teachings. I think they are based on a faulty understanding of Genesis, on the one hand, and a failure to grasp the enterprise of science on the other. While I am by no means alone among Believers, C. S. Lewis and Francis Schaeffer only touched on the subject, and Hugh Ross goes directions I might not follow. I am distressed that the Church spends even 5 seconds on this topic, however, because I believe it diverts her from her calling, first of all, and because it is used to set up false hurdles at the gateway to Faith. There are many who insist that accepting the so-called literal interpretation of Genesis is a litmus test for discerning 'true' Christians, and who elevate it to a requirement for salvation for those seeking Christ. This is heresy.

Sir; Just as apoint of information; I would not expect the republicans to get much in the way of black or hispanic votes putting an Asian Caucasian on the ticket with Mr. Mccain. He might look black to us, but my bet is that African Americans look at some one like that as just another parasite, like the Koreans, the Chinese, and the Arabs that buy into the ghetto and sell the necessities of life at a premium. No; we may not recognize the enemy, but they do. We don't understand the gievance Black people feel for having been robbed from their past and planted in this land to be the object of hatred and ridicule. Sure, they may not have the work ethic. You should remember that if they came out of slavery, and wages are slave wages they will not do the job no matter how much of Worthy Labor we butter it up with. So, tell your republican friends that Indian Americans are just like most of these imported hyphenated Americans, and within a generation they will own everything worth owning, and the only bright spot is that they will suffer every vice we now suffer. What do you think..., Sweeney

Equal Time. That supplimental instruction will have to cover Hindu, Bhuddist Intelligent Design as well. I'm all for theology being taught in schools, but not pretending to be science. I like post #3 referring to the literal translation of the Bible being the litmus test for a true christian. What if at some point science and religion somehow converge. The literal interpretation and the factual scientific theories unify. What if the literal translation is in deeed literal, yet not how it is interpreted now? What if the description of time in a biblical sense, is actually some quantum measurement. Using the current litteral view of the bible's creation story as science just does not hold water. I beleive it is possible to reconcile faith with scientific fact and have them, at least at the present time, at odds with eachother.
