Here's a chance for all the YEC's and IDiots to strut their stuff...

I have ferreted out the actual 'peer review' policy practiced by the Answers In Genesis, Answers Research Journal. A careful reading of this excerpt will prove illuminating.



VIII. Paper Review Process

Upon the reception of a paper the editor-in-chief will follow the procedures below:



A. Receive and acknowledge to the author the paper’s receipt.



B. Review the paper for possible inclusion into the ARJ review process.

The following criteria will be used in judging papers:



1. Is the paper’s topic important to the development of the Creation and Flood model?



2. Does the paper’s topic provide an original contribution to the Creation and Flood model?



3. Is this paper formulated within a young-earth, young-universe framework?



4. If the paper discusses claimed evidence for an old earth and/or universe, does this paper offer a very

constructively positive criticism and provide a possible young-earth, young-universe alternative?



5. If the paper is polemical in nature, does it deal with a topic rarely discussed within the origins

debate?



6. Does this paper provide evidence of faithfulness to the grammatical-historical/normative interpretation

of Scripture? If necessary, refer to: R. E. Walsh, 1986. Biblical hermeneutics and creation. Proceedings

First International Conference on Creationism, vol. 1, pp. 121–127. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania: Creation

Science Fellowship.



Remark:

The editor-in-chief will not be afraid to reject a paper if it does not properly satisfy the above criteria or it

conflicts with the best interests of AiG as judged by its biblical stand and goals outlined in its statement of

faith. The editors play a very important initial role in preserving a high level of quality in the ARJ, as well as

protecting AiG from unnecessary controversy and review of clearly inappropriate papers.

I took the time to discover the peer assessment technique as practiced by solutions in Genesis, you are able to discover it illuminating. VIII. Paper assessment technique Upon the reception of a paper the editor-in-chief will carry on with the techniques under: A. get carry of and properly known to the author the paper’s receipt. B. assessment the paper for a possibility inclusion into the ARJ assessment technique. here standards would be utilized in judging papers: a million. Is the paper’s subject remember significant to the shape of the introduction and Flood style? 2. Does the paper’s subject remember supply an unique contribution to the introduction and Flood style? 3. is this paper formulated interior of a youthful-earth, youthful-universe framework? 4. If the paper discusses claimed info for an old earth and/or universe, does this paper furnish an somewhat constructively beneficial grievance and supply a a possibility youthful-earth, youthful-universe option? 5. If the paper is polemical in nature, does it cope with a topic remember hardly pronounced in the origins debate? 6. Does this paper supply info of faithfulness to the grammatical-historic/normative interpretation of Scripture? If needed, confer with: R. E. Walsh, 1986. Biblical hermeneutics and introduction. lawsuits First worldwide convention on Creationism, vol. a million, pp. 121–127. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania: introduction technological understanding Fellowship. fact: The editor-in-chief should not be afraid to reject a paper if it would not right fulfill the above standards or it conflicts with the excellent interests of AiG as judged by its biblical stand and aims defined in its fact of religion. The editors play a mandatory preliminary function in protecting a severe point of high quality interior the ARJ, besides as 10 protecting AiG from pointless controversy and assessment of needless to say irrelevant papers.

Stephen C. Meyer published a paper supporting a generalised argument in favour of an Intelligent Designer in the peer-reviewed Proceedings of the Biological Society of Washington in 2004.



It is the only ID scientific paper ever to appear in a reputable journal, and the procedure which led to its passing the peer-review process is profoundly informative.



(But way beyond the intellectual capacity of anyone that supports either ID or Creationism).

Yes. Critical master texts (e.g. Greek NT texts) are tied closely to language forensics and codicological research. These are peer reviewed.



Read for example the introductory sections of the Nestle-Aland Greek New Testament.



I, in fact do peer review'



By choice I am a Christian, and work with ancient Bible versions. I have produced and own the copyright on six specialized editions of the New Testament, that are used by students, scholars, and translators.



At the same time, I am by profession a scientist in advanced research relating to applied linguistics as applied to computer security.



This includes research in heuristics, pattern recognition systems, intrinsic probability, extrinsic probability, neural nets, and mathematical languages.



I have had over 80 technical articles and scientific papers published, and I have several patents in the field. One patent, for example, is for a predicate logic-based language I invented. Another is for a relational analysis language I invented.



In relation to my research, I have been quoted in the cover of the Wall Street Journal and USA Today. My picture has appeared on the cover of the LA Times and in Time Magazine.



I have also worked with the FBI, DEA, Secret Service, Homeland Security, international space station and have been invited to the Whitehouse as a consultant.



I have peer reviewed both scientific papers and codicological works.

No Christian's paper that pretends to be "scientific" can survive a genuine scientific publication's peer review, because they have not an atom of genuine science at all. They depend upon pseudo-science and bad science, e.g. the classic distortion of the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics, misquoting scientists and general lies and distortions. I heard that they have their own pseudo-science publication that gives their version of "peer reviews" and is just one creationist charlatan agreeing with the absurd lies another creationist charlatan tells.

Sure, as long as the paper had nothing to do with YEC or ID.



Francis Collins has been peer reviewed many times over.

If you mean a scientific paper written by a Christian, then yes there have been very very many, which will have been peer-reviewed.



If you mean a Christian document (about God, for instance) peer-reviewed by scientists, then no. It doesn't work like that.



Creationist papers may be published, but they won't be published in standard scientific journals.

Christians weren't always YECky IDiots. Not long ago they actually had brains.

It's okay for others to insult atheists, but never the other way around.

"Christian scientific paper" is an oxymoron.

yes, its called the bible

2000 years of peer review.



Atheists: can you disprove one thing in the bible (which is not a metaphor)?
