Attack of the Theocrats!
Well, I suppose Mr Waltke is now proving his own thesis, at least. As a group kicks out it's more moderate and reasonable members, it's overall position will continue to harden and become marginalised from regular society, in a sense becoming a cult.
It's still very hard for a person from Europe to comprehend this cult of creationism, I had no idea of the controversy surrounding evolution while I was growing up, even in a highly religious country (Ireland). It must be incredibly depressing for American rationalist and science friends.
