ANGLICAN PRIEST FIGHTS CREATIONISTS IN UK

Recently, a group of UK creationists (including well qualified =
scientists) sent an information packet to schools in the UK in regard
to =
the creation/evolution issue. They have their own website to along
with =
this information (www.truthinscience.org.uk) Sadly, but not =
surprisingly, a church leader is publicly opposing this group. A
report =
from Ekklesia in the UK states:

   It is not possible to predict the outcome of this exercise. Some =
teachers may have already used the DVDs to scare birds from their =
vegetable patch. However it will give a way for the increasing number
of =
YEC science teachers to introduce creationism into the classroom, =
despite the fact that it is scientific nonsense and dependent on the =
gross misrepresentations of standard science.

   It is a concern that the authors are sure that OFSTED will not
object =
to their ideas. The result will be to confuse students, to increase
the =
antagonism of non-believers, and to raise opposition to faith schools
of =
any kind.

   Sadly the church, and especially the Church of England, has avoided =
taking a stand on these issues, possibly to avoid confrontation with =
more conservative members. Far too often the opponents of this =
pseudo-scientific nonsense are atheists, who then use this to ridicule =
faith. Will the church now wake up?

WINNIPEG MINISTRY

By the time you read this blog, I should be on my way to Winnipeg
Canada =
to speak at a conference. Please pray for the effectiveness of the =
talks. For further information, go to: Winnepeg Conference.

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying
