What (If Anything) Hath God Wrought? Academic Freedom and the Religious Professor.
Johnson, Phillip E.
Academe, v81 n5 p16-19 Sep-Oct 1995
Legal and educational aspects of the debate over religious expression entering the college classroom are examined, particularly as they relate to inclusion of creationism into science instruction. It is concluded that the central question is not whether creationism is religious, but whether it is true, and that truth benefits from open debate over this and other fundamental questions. (MSE)
