I read in the paper yesterday that the "beast" everyone refers to in Revelation was not the anti-Christ but the evil emperor Nero in Rome at the time. That's one person's opinion. It's many people's opinion. Nero is by far the most credible candidate. The verse in question is Revelation 1...

Gore is not employed by a government agency such as NOAA or NASA, therefore he can't be fired by order of the White House.

What we're looking for here, to have a valid comparison to YECism, is a scientist (or small group of them) who held to an old theory while their peers endorsed a new one. And of course we want this example to turn out to have the old theory eventually found to be right. And to further increase the s...
