How Are We Meant to Understand Genesis? (Don Batten, Answers in Genesis)
Ken Smith (K) wrote: I have read through Don’s (Don Batten’s) initial posting to a.r.c several times. The issue of “inerrancy” has come up a number of times in the past here, and the participants have (usuallly) agreed to differ. Might I make a plea for a bit of civility in the language to be […]
How Are We Meant to Understand Genesis? (an Orthodox View)
From an Orthodox Churchpoint of view Ken: Might I make a plea for a bit of civility in the language to be used in this debate? Don’s posting uses the same sort of language which can be found in other creationist writings, and it gives the impression, perhaps unintended, of belligerence towards anyone who disagrees. […]

There have been a number of responses complaining that the discussion had concentrated on religion, and that very little about scientific issues had […]
Quotations from Scientists (Ken Smith)
This is the first of what I expect will be a number of postings simply providing quotations from various scientists, and, occasionally, from a religious non-scientist who mentions scientific matters. They will cover the nature of science and the procedures used by scientists, philosophical ideas, comments about religion, and, in short, anything which relates to […]
Science (Ken Smith again)
There have been a number of responses complaining that the discussion had concentrated on religion, and that very little about scientific issues had appeared. This post (and the following one) will partly redress the balance. I had intended to cover Don’s words about “naturalism” and make some introductory remarks about creationists’ misunderstandings of and objections […]

Sellers | posted 04/22/2005 09:30 a.m. The cavernous hallway outside Chicago City Council chambers is echoing with the sound of 150 people chanting, “We’re fed up, we won’t take it no mo’!” The lady […]
