I note there's an appearance by Bob and Larry of Veggietales. Are they YEC
too? Surprising, because I understand Bob presented a paper on "*Assyrian
Parallels in the Yahwist's Creation Narrative: of Tiamat and Tomatoes*" at
Princeton Seminary last spring.
But seriously -- I don't doubt that YECism is the dominant view among
religious Americans, but I doubt that most religious Americans have given
more than a few moments thought to the question -- or to the even bigger
question of what Jesus would have thought of multimillionaire athletes
teaming up with a rock band, a tomato, and a cucumber for "faith day at the
ballpark."
