However, don't forget that the NAS also
has its own politics. For example, Carl Sagan was
rejected and arguable for mostly political reasons.
Whether any of the above folk
(Dr. Scott Minnich, Dr. Lee Spetner, Dr. Michael Behe
Dr. Paul Nelson, Dr. Steve Meyer, Dr. William Dembski,
and Dr. Jonathan Wells) should be there is not
for me to say, and in any case, people who are there
have earned it. Nevertheless lets not what the preach says
"I realized another thing, that in this world
fast runners do not always win the races,
and the brave do not always win the batles.
Wise individuals do not always earn a living, intelligent
people do not always get rich, and capable individuals do
not always rise to high positions. Bad luck happens
to everyone."
Ecclesiastes 9.11
I think it would be pertinent to point out to Allen that whereas
> Dr. Scott Minnich
> Dr. Lee Spetner
> Dr. Michael Behe
> Dr. Paul Nelson
> Dr. Steve Meyer
> Dr. William Dembski
> Dr. Jonathan Wells
may be very intelligent people, as I am sure Allen is
also, Allen should be wise enough to realize that
intelligent people can also be wrong.
by Grace alone do we proceed.
