Yeah, Helen has tried to use this line before. However, she has never clarified it when repeatedly asked. She never even replied to questions asking her to explain at what university, in what class, with what book, and under what professor she "studied" these topics. In fact, "cellular genetics" is not even a field.

In another thread she mentioned the "science" books that used to "study." They were all creationists/evolution-denial books. It seems rather obvious that she is inflating or inventing her science background and the faithful just eat it up.

I think her "study" of "cellular" and population genetics amounts to "mutations are bad."

That is an absolute lie. Somebody (besides me - I told her in an email to take a flying fuck and she is ignoring me) ask Helen some population genetics questions and see how much she knows...

I registered as Erasmus. For religion, I said I was a Confirmed Lutheran (not a lie ), my favorite Bible verse, "...All they that take the sword shall perish with the sword", and my Personal Statement about Jesus Christ, "Jesus is my Friend" Let's see if I get approved.

Well I wanted to put, "Jesus don't want me for a sunbeam," but I knew that would get me band without question.

(TTBOMK, this is actually a promotional site for a movie; you could guess which one if you read between the lines.)

Good site. Opening night of the first movie several of my friends showed up with Senator Kelly signs.

Ha ha! I just listened to that song the other day. . . Nirvana Unplugged is one of my fave albums.

What is the deal with the BB E/C forum anyway? Are they letting any non-baptists or non-YECS post there??

It depends on the thread. Only creationists are allowed to post in threads dealing with the creationism. In other words, Helen can start a post saying that red beans and rice proves that the world is only 6000 years old, but no one is allowed to challenge it. Evolution-bashing threads so far are more open, but the filters are always there.

They banned me already. I've made a point of being civil and courteous and adhering to the rules of the board. I sent a polite letter asking why.
