College prof. fired for saying that adam and eve story is a fairy tale.
Is there no questioning a book that is full of contradictions?

Pft, if there's not more to this story than meets the eye, I'll eat my fig leaf.

Yeah, I'm a little suspicious too. I'm going to wait for more facts before I call for a march on Iowa.....

From the story here: Desmoines Register (http://www.desmoinesregister.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2007709220333)
Wild did not return telephone or e-mail messages Friday. Bitterman said that he can think of no other reason college officials would fire him and that Smith, the director of the campus, has previously sat in on his classes and complimented his work.
So, it sounds to me as if the prof is claiming he was fired for what he said about the bible, but he really doesn't know why he was fired. Maybe he just sucked?

That's an intriguing visual. I take it you are a practitioner of yoga? If not, have the osteopath on speed dial, in case the skeletal-muscular frame doesn't handle the flexibility imperative. Think Cirque de Soleil.
