		<description><![CDATA[As I write this the quite heated (and, to my mind, unfortunate) controversy, involving La Sierra University and the purported teaching of evolution by some of its biology professor(s)&#8211;in &#8216;contravention&#8217; to Adventist belief in creation&#8211;that has been going on for some time, continues.

		<description><![CDATA[The title of this post refers to my reaction to an evolution versus creation controversy currently enveloping a West Coast Adventist institution of higher learning; it&#8217;s an allusion to the course that controversies in the Adventist church have historically taken and my dismay that this too might conclude similarly.
