Evolution
Belief Forced On Christian College Students
We Need More
Christians In The Medical
World

With all the talk about health care and the need for
more doctors and better doctors, I have the following to say on it
all.
We need universities to stop the major pushing of
evolution on students who have faith-belief convictions against such
teachings, so that more Christians will enter into the medical
field, on all levels.
I have two daughters who are in the
sciences. One is an undergrad, the other is a grad student on an NSF
fellowship, working on research.
My daughters have been very
blessed, in that they have been very respected in the private
university that they did/do attend for their undergrad years. Even
the professor that my oldest daughter is currently studying under in
a private grad school program, is very kind to her on this issue.
(Note, that my youngest went to a state college for her first year,
and there was one problem after another.)
Not all
creationists have it as well as my daughters have been treated in
private main-stream universities, and I am sure there are very few
such good situations in state universities. Not all main stream
universities have such a creationist friendly environment. Also, if
the undergrad is in a main-stream premed undergraduate program,
he/she can count on having to take an entire course in
evolution.
Because of the forced evolution on pre-med
students and on so many students in the sciences, many born again
Christians shy away from such fields. Not only does this cause an
overall shortage in the fields, it causes a shortage of God's
children in the fields.
One more thought on this: I don't
know about you all who are reading this, but I would like to think
that the person slicing me open for surgery, knows that there is a
God and that I am not just an animal that appeared out of
nothingness.
