For those who doubt that there is a systemic liberal bias in the halls of Academia, witness the latest "leftist plot" at Baylor University. It seems that they are denying tenure to accomplished scholar Francis Beckwith. Do you think it has anything to do with the fact that he is a prominent critic of abortion, or because he supports the teaching of intelligent design (see his book Law, Darwinism, and Public Education)? Mmmmm, could be!
However, this may just be a problem at Baylor, where the entrenched liberal faculty are resisting a move back towards its more Christian roots. We’ll have to watch (who’s got popcorn?)
The web is abuzz with this, check out the list of articles, mostly heaping scorn on Baylor, for this.
