Professors Dawkins, Jones et al - secular humanism's front-line high priests - are spitting mad. They have been alerted to the fact that a number of teachers at Emmanuel College in Gateshead actually take the Bible seriously. How seriously?
Well, some there have affirmed that the Scriptural account in Genesis may, in fact, be historical narrative and not merely some poetic myth valuable only for its 'religious significance' - whatever that is.
They have ventured to think it credible 'science' that almighty God spoke and, from nothing, created the space-time universe we all inhabit and everything that fills it. They are not embarrassed or nervous about declaring their belief that it happened that way, for that is just how the Bible presents the momentous event to us consistently throughout its pages. Neither is it unscientific, however loud and fierce the protest. If it were, why did so many of the great pioneers of science - Galileo, Kepler, Newton, etc., - believe that God had supernaturally created? The truth is that until about 150 years ago few Bible-believing Christians would have thought any differently.
