Kevin -- what you are doing here is asserting that the motives of the YEC
leadership people are evil.

To the extent that I know some of these personally, Gish for instance,
I must emphatically assert otherwise. Confused? Perhaps. Wrong? I think
so. Sincere? I am convinced that Gish, at the very least, is; very
probably also Henry Morris. I have no opinion on those I have not broken
bread with.
