On 01-03-98, KEITH KNAPP declared to BRIAN TIPLING:
KK>but science definitely contradicts biblical literalism.
Factually incorrect.  Science does NOT contradict the Bible, including
the Genesis account - certain scientists biasing their interpretations
of the evidences in that direction do.
   "No myth deserves a more emphatic death than the idea that science
   is an inherently impartial and objective enterprise;...Yet it
   continues to thrive among working scientists because it serves us so
   well....It also provides the rationale for America's scientific
   priesthood."
    Stephen Jay Gould - The National Academy of Sciences, SCIENCE IN
    THE TWENTIETH CENTURY 1978, p.344.
Among the many things that public schools never told you:  The majority
of the fathers and pioneers of the various scientific fields were
"creationists".  More recently, it was a "creationist" who invented the
MRI for medicine.  If memory serves, so was the founder of Fermi Labs.
