I'm having trouble figuring out whether Woodmorappe really isn't able to understand the point I'm making about ICAMs, or whether he's misunderstanding me deliberately. Here is what I said about this point in my letter to the Journal of Creation: And here is how Woodmorappe responded to this...

It looks like the December issue of the Journal of Creation has been published now: Journal of Creation - 2018 Volume 32 Issue 3 - page0 According to the table of contents, this issue includes my letter (on page 46), as well as Woodmorappe's response to it. I have the PDF proof of my letter...

I'm not aware of any other times this has happened, but it's possible that there are others I don't know about.

Do you mean you think this is the first time Answers in Genesis has deleted one of their articles in response to someone else's criticism?

My response at Panda's Thumb has been published now, so here it is: John Woodmorappe vs. modern creation science: a response I've also attached a PDF of John Woodmorappe's review that I'm responding to. I'm not including my letter to the Journal of Creation, because I think it's best to not...

I don't know if young-Earth creationism is the majority opinion among creationists or not. It certainly seems that way, but it's also possible that YECs are just the most organized and well-funded. Either way, it's definitely the most prominent form of creationism in the United States. For...

I think that Christianity probably isn't true, but I remain open to being convinced otherwise. Every now and then, I pray that if I've made the wrong decision by reaching this conclusion, and if God really is the God that's described in the Bible, He'll offer me strong evidence of that. It...

If you understood the trauma I was going through during that part of my life, you would know that I was fully aware of this. Christianity is (or, is supposed to be) a personal relationship between someone and their Savior. But a friendship can't be a one-directional thing. In order to trust...

Well, it looks like maybe the Journal of Creation is willing to publish a response from me after all. It'll have to be a letter, though, which means it can only be 1000 words or less, only a fraction of the length of Woodmorappe's review. I think what I'm going to do is write a detailed response...

I mean that I know a lot about it. During the seven years between when I accepted evolution (at age 12) and when I abandoned Christianity (at age 19), I put a lot of lot of thought into how to reconcile those two viewpoints with one another. Also, in case you were wondering, the reason I...

Thanks, I've got it now. As I said in my e-mail response, I'm not looking forward to reading this review, but as the book's lead author I probably ought to write a response to it. I've e-mailed the editor at the Journal of Creation to ask if I could write a response in that journal, but I doubt...

OK, in that case I think I answered your questions in my previous post. I do think it's likely that some of the animals you mentioned are ordinary animals whose names haven't been translated clearly. For example, I'm fairly sure that Biblical Hebrew doesn't have a unique word for whale, so when...

Are these questions for me, or for the study's author? The study's author isn't an evolutionist, so your last line doesn't make sense if it's directed at him. But I also think you know that I'm not a Christian, so this isn't really a meaningful question for me, either. For me, this is kind of...

Thanks. I'd been wondering if you might be able to help with this, since you've helped me get papers from that journal a few other times. I'm not sure if I've mentioned this before, but a few of the other creationist papers that you've helped me find are being cited as sources in my book, and...

It mentions that old-earth creationists exists, but the focus is on the YEC movement, since young-earth creationism is the perspective taken by all of the most prominent creationist organizations and journals.

This study was presented earlier today at the International Conference on Creationism: Feathered dinosaurs reconsidered: insights from baraminology and enthnotaxonomy Since the author (Matthew McLain) is a creationist, he can't accept that birds actually are descended from dinosaurs, but I'm...

Can anyone address the reason I revived this thread? I'd like to know if anyone here is able to access the review of my book in this journal.

Sorry to resurrect this old thread, but there is another Journal of Creation paper that I'm wondering if anyone here would be able to get: Woodmorappe, John. "A detailed rehash of all the canned anti-creationist shibboleths: A review of God’s Word or Human Reason? An inside perspective on...

The journal itself isn't defunct. It's still being published, but they haven't been uploading the new issues of it at the journal's website ever since the website was overhauled last year.

About a year ago, the creationist paleontologist Marcus Ross agreed to review my book in Creation Research Society Quarterly. It was my suggestion for him to review it, since virtually all pro-evolution books are eventually reviewed in the professional creationist literature, and I wanted to...
