John Woodmorappe
From CreationWiki, the encyclopedia of creation science
John Woodmorappe is a popular creationist author now widely known to be the pen name of Jan Peczkis.[1] Jan has a BA in Biology and MA in Geology from Northeastern Illinois University, and has been a long time public school teacher in Chicago Illinois.
He is a young earth creation scientist that has published prolifically in mainstream and creationist journals. He is perhaps best known for his work in the field of Biblical flood geology, which he published under the assumed pseudonym. He has successfully pointed out the flaws of radiometric dating methods, and has provided ample evidence to support the feasibility of the Biblical narrative of Noah's Ark.
Pseudonyms or nom de plumes are taken by authors for a variety of reasons to conceal their identity. Given the anticreation sentiment that permeates the scientific and public school systems, it is not suprising that creationists would feel the need to protect themselves from reprisal.
