 | Lubbock, TX, where I live, was ranked the second most conservative city in America by Forbes magazine. You might suspect that Lubbock would therefore be a hotbed of creation whackiness. Interestingly, this is not the case. There are plenty of creationists here but they don't seem to have the same influence as in other areas. There are no creationist axe grinders on the local school board, for example. I suspect the reason might be the great prestige and importance of earth science at Texas Tech University. When Tech professors talk, the locals listen; since the university is a very big part of the city's economy.<br />There are also some prominent Christian leaders here who do not countenance creation nuttery. They tend to do keep a low public profile about it but they are very effective behind the scenes., free sports betting, 4779, online betting tips, 448,
