Re: [asa] Interesting blog post

Todd Wood is always worth a read. He, along with Kurt Wise, are known as "the honest creationists" among biologists of all creeds (or none).

To paraphrase a recent credit card advertisement:

Christians who hold to YEC: a dime a dozen
Christians who are honest about the evidence for evolution: regretfully rare
Both attributes in one person: priceless.

The fact that Todd can be honest about the evidence for evolution immediately raises the question: why is his approach so vanishingly rare? As Christians, honesty is a basic tenet of the faith. Where are the other honest creationists? Why can we point to only two?

Todd has a new post up as of yesterday on this issue: read it all, and read it now: it's worth every word.

Todd Wood, the creationist from Bryan College who is the topic of the blog entry Louise sent us (http://scienceblogs.com/tfk/2009/11/todd_wood_talks_some_sense.php), will be speaking at Messiah next spring, about the state of creationist ideas today. ASA members take note: you can attend a 3-lecture symposium he will do on Sat April 10.
