Trolling for Credits
I can't remember where I first read about this, but when I just Googled "creationist forum trolling requirement" PZ's commentary was the first hit.
So that's where some of our trolls come from… : Pharyngula
Quote:
Bill Dembski's Intelligent Design course at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary has some interesting course requirements.
provide at least 10 posts defending ID that you've made on "hostile" websites, the posts totalling 2,000 words, along with the URLs (i.e., web links) to each post (worth 20% of your grade).

Re: Trolling for Credits
I read about this yesterday and couldn't help thinking that this is a superb way to be sure they all think alike and copy off each other (having also copied the creationist handbook).

Re: Trolling for Credits
Ooooo...Does SW Theological Seminary have any nice locations on their site where thousands of Darwinians can go to post their rationales for supporting evolution?
Somebody might need to get their Rational Response Credits.

The course is geared toward three student audiences: college students (see syllabus for AP 410), masters students (see syllabus for AP 510), and D.Min. students (see syllabus for AP 810).

D-min students in the d-min course? 
(From their teaching site.)

Doctor of Ministry, actually. It is a degree that is designed for ministers who want the ego boost of a doctorate without having to get all academic and shit.

Re: Trolling for Credits
'Cause just because it's one of the religions with a book, they shouldn't have to read it or comprehend it?
Stay classy!

Snap Null, that's what I thought too.
I love creationists. I can eat a whole one for breakfast.
