Of course, I wasn't arguing whether or not they believe creationism is true. I'm sure they do believe it. The dishonesty came when they tried to deceive students by teaching them religion and calling it science. One way they did that was by taking a religious book and changing a few words in it and trying to pass it off as a science textbook. The cut & paste job was very sloppy and very obvious.

All of this is a matter of public record, Gil.
