The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board voted unanimously last month not allow the Institute for Creation Research (ICR) to grant online Master of Science degrees in science education. The ICR makes no secret of the fact that it supports a literal interpretation of the Bible, including the creation of Earth in six days.
“Religious belief is not science,” said the state’s commissioner of Higher education in recommending to the board that they disallow the ICR application. He added, “Science and religious belief are surely reconcilable, but they are not the same thing.”
