paleonet paleontology position and compatibility with creation/young earth



Greetings,

I should think that a Geology/Paleontology degree from this place
would be valueless.

How could the university be accredited in the first place (assuming it is)?

Regards,

Doug Boyce

Hi

Since we are talking about paleontology and creationism again, I
thought I would tell you about a job ad I recently saw.  It reads:

Geology:Ph.D. required. Teaching Introductory Geology, Paleontology,
and History of Life. Compatibility with a young-earth creationist
position required.

This is at Liberty University and you can see the ad here:

Since I've been looking for jobs lately, I wondered about applying to
this position for fun.  I really wonder how large an applicant pool
they will have when most paleontologists, by design of the science,
should not be compatible with the view of the university.

John
