Qualifications of Creation Scientists (Creator, Earth, beliefs, evolution, genesis)

[Bright-ness' Shadow]

Only 0.15% of Biologists and Geologists Are Creationists
from The Evolution Evidence Page

According to Newsweek in 1987, "By one count there are some 700 scientists with respectable academic credentials (out of a total of 480,000 U.S. earth and life scientists) who give credence to creation-science..."

The above is quoted from Public Beliefs About Evolution And Creation at ReligiousTolerance.org. which in turn referenced Newsweek magazine, 1987-JUN-29, Page 23 as the source for this data.

700 U.S. earth or life scientists who accept creationism / 480,000 U.S. earth or life scientists X 100% = 0.15% of U.S. earth or life scientists that accept creationism.

The preceding selection was taken from an article here

Answer in Genesis lists many that they have included in their fold but in the long list of those with doctorates they make this disclaimer. "Note: Individuals on this list must possess a doctorate in a science-related field." Apparently that includes Psycholgy, Electorial Engineering, Statistics, Medicine, Mathmatics and more listed here

"*As far as we know, the scientists of the past listed here believed in a literal Genesis unless otherwise stated. The ones who did not are nevertheless included in the list below, because of their general belief in the creator God of the Bible and opposition to evolution. But because the idea that the earth is ‘millions of years’ old has been disastrous in the long run, no present day ‘long-agers’ are included intentionally, because they should know better."

I really do like the last line here.

I hadn't realized how disproportionate the numbers were. Good post, Pah!
