31. distinction
i have no problem giving them a masters in ?????? as long as it clearly states it is a masters in creationism and not science, just as long as an employer knows that this so called science masters is in creationism, not science. just think of who would hire with a degree in creationism? one of their own and we can keep them isolated to their own group and not let out into the general public. watch bill maher's religulous, not only funny but how ridiculous religion is. religion is defined by your definition of insanity!!!!!
