Creation Institute Requests Prayer Today

[Dr. Shane]

Dear Friends of ICR,

Many of you have expressed interest in our dispute with the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB), which in April denied our application to allow the ICR Graduate School to move its 27-year-old degree program to Texas. ICR’s graduate school’s appeal and legal challenge has asserted various federal and state law violations to the THECB’s actions, and this challenge is set for a pre-litigation mediation proceeding on Wednesday of this week (October 29th).

ICR will meet with THECB representatives at the direction of a Mediator-Administrative Law Judge (who is assigned to ICR’s case by the State Office of Administrative Hearings) to discuss and further clarify our official appeal to their action of last April.

Please bring this matter before the Lord in prayer, especially on that day, that we may represent our positions in a manner that would please the Lord as we begin what could be a substantial and prolonged litigation process.

Dr. Henry Morris III

Chief Executive Officer

This degree is one mostly sought after by science educators that teach in private, Christian schools. There is a struggle because there is a very active group that fears a belief in creationism will corrupt the teachings of natural science. They not only want to prevent creation from being taught in public schools, they want to prevent creation from being classified as science even in religious schools. This is really an assault on our religious liberty as the government decides what religious schools can teach or not teach in a science curriculum.

It is in fact first and foremost and assault on science to insist on the myths and junk-science frauds of Darwinism in an "all Darwinism all the time" agenda.

Dawkins was right to characterize this as war against Christianity - but what he is leaving out is that this is really an atheist religionist holy war against other religions than themselves.
