    If he rejects science and believes in mythology as history what good is heas a linguist? It's true. Smart people don't believe the Flood or the Tower of Babel really happened!

      So if you believe in one thing that may not be smart, it makes you not smart?

                    Give it up, SU. You're blanket statements have exposed you as a loud-mouthed fool.

                    Excellent work, YO!

                      Yes. Unless SU believes in something that isn't smart, then that's just an exception.

                        He's a Hebrew professor, not a religion professor. I imagine that his field crosses over quite a bit into History and Archaeology. I've personally never found the Tower of Babel to be wholly unbelievable like Noah's Ark (at least the literalist interpretation), but his discussion on the topic coming from Linguistics Professor is more than a little odd. His deduction that the difference in languages speaks to the truth about the Tower of Babel is strange.
                        Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

                            What those who work with me and I have done is to shift the question in the debates in the university world and in the Christian world about this. Let's not talk about the Bible and science. I never bring the Bible into this. Because, as soon as you do that, the scientists never let you stop talking about Noah's ark.

                            You see, they want to talk about the Bible because they know how to handle that and how to ridicule it.

                            What they don't want to talk about is the peppered moth. They don't want to talk about the lack of evidence, the fossil problems, all the other problems with their theories. So we have to keep the attention focused on that. - Phillip Johnson
