    "At issue are criticisms by Ham of Peter Enns of the Biologos Foundation, who has said the fall of Adam and Eve can be construed as a symbolic story of Israel's beginnings, rather than a literal description of human beginnings."
  • March 24, 2011. Faith & Works - Kentucky's and Indiana's diverse religious scene blog. Sponsored by Louisville Courier-Journal. Ham-homeschooling dispute by Peter Smith.
    "Ham shot back that the convention organization has hosted speakers that question literal interpretations of the Bible and write for BioLogos, a Web site that promotes Christian acceptance of scientific conclusions such as evolution. (In the past year, BioLogos writers have repeatedly sparred with Southern Baptist Theological Seminary President Albert Mohler, who maintains that the Bible trumps the consensus of scientists. And BioLogos’ publicizing of a comment by prominent evangelical biblical scholar Bruce Waltke, showing an openness to evolution, cost Waltke his job as a professor at Reformed Theological Seminary)"
  • March 24, 2011. World News.com. Creation Museum's founder banned from convention by Linda B. Blackford, Lexington Herald-Leader.
    "Ken Ham of Answers in Genesis gives his first broadcast interview to Worldview Weekend Radio concerning his being kicked out of speaking for two homeschool conferences. This is a perfect example of what Brannon has been warning about and is writing about in his forth coming book, Religious Trojan Horse. Christian leaders will increasingly face opposition from Christian leaders and organizations when they stand for the Word of God without compromise."
  • March 24, 2011. AliveInSpirit blog. Emotional earthquake: thoughts on recent homeschool convention vs Ken Ham/AIG situation by Barbara.
    "Recently I was astonished to find out that Ken Ham and AIG were dis-invited to speak and be in the vendor hall for Midwest Homeschool Convention based on what Mr. Ham said concerning another speaker/vendor’s homeschool curriculum. I will not go into it much here as to whether or not there was any blame on either parties but to ponder what this means to me. Mainly because there seems to be more to the situation than is what has been presented by the convention people as well as perhaps Mr Ham. I do not know because I was not there and can only read what was made public. The convention folks are not giving out much info or facts. It is difficult to say what issues they had concerning Mr Ham since they just made a generalized statement which I could not see backed up by anything specific being brought forward by them. Honestly the way it was left makes it look more favorably toward Mr Ham and AIG so I am declining to make any firm judgment in the manner. I mainly wanted to state the situation exists between the two or perhaps the three parties seeing how Dr. Enns and his curriculum were a part of the equation. I used this info to set up what I wanted to say in the following sentences."

    "Brother Joel is at it again. He’s written a post concerning Great Homeschool Convention, Inc.’s erroneous decision to ban Ken Ham and Answers in Genesis from ALL future homeschool conventions [wow. that's... overkill]. Brother Joel, an extraBiblical Creationist, has a habit of taking an occasional potshot at Ken Ham and yours truly. In this case, the title of his blog post is simply libelous: Ken Ham Removed from Homeschool Convention for UnChristian Behavior."
