From Lenny Flank's page on the web, here's a few examples of the
"scientists" (har har) Laurie and other creationists rely on.
IS THERE A REAL DOCTOR IN THE HOUSE?
Next time you see a creation "scientist", ask him where he got
his degree.
--"Dr" Richard Bliss, who develops curriculum materials for the
Institute for Creation Research, has a doctorate in education from the
University of Sarisota in Florida, an unaccredited diploma mill that is
located in a hotel.
--"Dr" Kelly Segraves, a co-founder of the Creation Science
Research Center, claims to have an MA and DSc degree. The doctorate is
supposed to be an honorary degree from "Christian University",
but no such place exists in the United States. Segraves dropped the
"Dr" from his name in 1981. His Masters is supposed to come from
"Sequoia University", but this doesn't exist either. There is a
Sequoia College in California, but it has no record of a student named
Segraves.
--"Dr" Harold Slusher, a co-founder of the Creation Research
Society, claims to have an earned PhD from Columbia Pacific University and
an honorary DSc from Indiana Christian University. Indiana Christian is a
Bible college, while Columbia Pacific is an unaccredited diploma mill.
--"Dr" Clifford Burdick of the Creation Research Society got his
doctorate from the University of Physical Sciences in Arizona, which
consists of a post office box at an unaccredited institute in Phoenix.
--"Dr" Carl Baugh, of the Creation Evidences Museum near Glen
Rose, Texas, has a PhD in anthropology from the College of Advanced
Education, an unaccredited Bible college on the grounds of the Sherwood
Park Baptist Church. He has another PhD from the California Graduate
School of Theology, an unaccredited college in California.
