This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

That should probably be modified to _some_ (perhaps a minority) Protestants, 
as myself and the Reverend Professor John Polkinghorne would be in deep 
trouble if, as scientists, we believed in neither evolution nor 
thermodynamics.

In fact, apart from  Ian Paisley, I can't actually think of any high-profile 
Creationist Protestants in the UK; it's more of a US thing.
