Was modern science an atheistic achievement? is the atheistic explanation for the origin of life better supported by observational evidence than the old biblical view? Is modern feminism's view of gender based on science, or any other authority than its own dogma? This and 7 more popular academic myths are exploded This volume is a continuation of the exploration of the myths which underlie the whole of modern academia. These are the cultural presuppositions that fuel and shape our curricula and teaching programs. Our children begin to learn the basic information behind these myths long before they attend their first pre-school class, as they are taught or implied in almost every program aired for children on TV. These myths are taught as powerful cultural "truths" that a person must believe if they expect to be accepted as sophisticated educated people in society. To insure that children learn these just so stories, education is carefully manipulated, and children are taught what to think, not how to think. Everybody, Christians included, must bow to these myths, and they are now being taught on Bible campuses as well as secular. Any part of the Scripture which seems to be at variance to them, is either reinterpreted, played down, or ignored. But they are myths. This book challenges them and shows them to be what they are, popular presuppositions of atheism, with little to support or defend them against a bold challenge based in reality.
