    This is exactly what I have tried to do. The article, "Young-Earth
    Creationism: A Literal Mistake," due out this December in PSCF could be a
    step in that direction. It shows the biblical shortcomings of YEC
    doctrine. Take away their Bibles and they don't have much left.

    But one article in our publication isn't going to change the world. It
    really depends on what kind of legs it gets. And this is up to guys like
    you. Could this small article be parlayed into a book with chapters by
    George, Keith, Howard, Glenn and other ASAers? Would John Templeton help?

    We all seem to understand there is a problem. Could we band together long
    enough to slay this giant alligator so that we can return to doing what we
    love best - swatting flies?
