Creation Moment 10/23/2014 - Case Study: Barash vs. Hedin

Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers,
2 Peter 3:3
For the invisible things of him from
the creation of the world are clearly seen,
being understood by the things that are made,
even his eternal power and Godhead;
so that they are without excuse:
Romans 1:20
Short Case Study of Academia & "Science"
"David Barash at the University of Washington and his piece in the New York Times summarizing the regular talk ("The Talk") he gives to his students about how evolution disproves religion. Well, not absolutely disproves it but very close.

This is very helpful since I've asked before how it is that a scientist gets to evangelize for atheism at one public university while another at a different public university, Ball State physicist Eric Hedin, gets censured and silenced merely for apprising students of the existence of books offering scientific evidence for intelligent design.
Hedin is well liked by his students according to RateMyProfessors.com, and makes an interesting comparison to David Barash who gets complaints about how he is "definitely an atheist and has an agenda to push," "tries to throw dirt on those who believe in anything other than his 'marvelous' theories," has a "clear agenda to push, as he's always rambling off topic about how biology proves that God doesn't exist."
