::It's true that V and the creationists overlap on a few points, but when deYoung says that V endorses evolution and rejects the Bible, Christianity and miracles, it's pretty hard for a creationist to buy into his very complex theory, and not one does so. V's goal was to show many of the miracles of the Bible had physical causes and were not divine miracles. Stansfield looked and found not a single creationist supporter. Send your email address to me at rjensen@uic.edu and I will send along the whole Stansfield article.[[User:RJJensen|RJJensen]] 04:53, 16 February 2009 (EST)

::: I think it's going further than Don DeYoung to say that Velikovsky "rejects the Bible". Rejects the miraculous aspect, yes, but not the Bible per se. Velikovsky accepted much more of the ''history'' of the Bible than many other non-Christians.
::: My e-mail will be on its way shortly, but you could have simply asked me to use the "e-mail this user" link on the left (of your user pages) to save posting it here publicly.
