Bantam Books just gave $45M to Baptist minister Tim Lahaye for four new fiction books:

Bantam acquired a new, four-book series about a Christian achaeologist-professor in the vein of Indiana Jones, the trade paper reported.


I'm hoping that instead of whipping out his gun and shooting the sword wielding muslim henchman chasing him our new hero pulls out his bible, holds it up...and gets hacked to bits.

Considering Mr. Lahaye's opinons, the Archaeologist will probably find many proofs for the literal truth of the bible and the idea that evolution is a lie.

But as long as these creationists are selling their books as fiction I am OK with that.
