Poor Nathaniel. I'd like to say that very few people who believe they have the right to believe in, and be protected by, the literal translation of some things, but are exempt from the literal meaning of other things -- even when it's the contract they signed.
Like I said, I'd like to say that, but those who count themselves among the many who make up the proliferation of, if not infestation of, perhaps the world's largest religion seem to believe that not only can they dictate to others what doctrine they should follow, but they can conveniently ignore the doctrine they find inconvenient. And Nathaniel is a living example of this.
It appears that Nathaniel accepted a highly-professional position -- prestigious and high-paying -- being fully aware that the nature of the research he would be performing depended upon objective belief in tenets of Evolution. And then once on board, comfortably in his position, he says: No, I don't want anything to do with Evolution, ... and to top it off, it's against my religious rights to make me.
This is classic Christian whining. Let's all watch this one closely, and if he gets his way, all I can say is if we are quiet about it, we'll deserve everything we get.
