Re: Glenn Morton at evcforum.net
Glenn Morton's message are a interesting read. While he says he accepts evolution and the Big Bang theory, he also says he believes in a literal interpretation of Genesis including a belief in some version of Adam and the Fall. I can imagine ways to reconcile those beliefs, but most of them involve forms of willful ignorance. I seems to me likely that holding them would produce cognitive dissonance in someone who has to do science for a living.
Morton seems to be principally a fundamentalist and his recognition that a few things in Genesis were not as his peers believe does not seem to have changed that.

Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also in prison. Thoreau: Civil Disobedience (1846)
The apathy of the people is enough to make every statue leap from its pedestal and hasten the resurrection of the dead. William Lloyd Garrison.
