The Unpardonable Sin in Academia

Regis Nicoll for Crosswalk.com, asks the question, "What do William Dembski, Frank Beckwith, and Dr. Robert J. Marks have in common? All three have been victims of academic suppression at not at Cornell, Stanford or MIT, but at Baylor University - the world's largest institute of higher learning in the Baptist tradition."

"In 2001, Baylor shut down the Michael Polanyi Center and removed Dr. William Dembski as its director because of the center's focus on ID. Last year, Baylor tried to deny tenure to Frank Beckwith - a scholar who is recognized as a world class philosopher with a prodigious publication record and high teaching marks - for his views on ID. And now the campus thought police has Robert Marks in its crosshairs."
