In hmolscience, Bert Thompson (c.1960-) is an American microbiologist and creationist noted for being the co-author with Brad Harrub of their Oct 2002 65-page response article entitled “15 Answers to John Rennie and Scientific American’s Nonsense”, in response to John Rennie’s 17 Jun 2002 Scientific American article “15 Answers to Creationist Nonsense”, amid the Rennie creationism fiasco.

Apologetics Press
In 2002, Thompson was a longtime director of Apologetics Press—an Alabama-based church organization, with a $1-million dollar annual budget, whose focus is to “wage war against atheism and evolution”. Ironically, and somewhat humorously, Thompson, to note, who had spent some 26-years, as executive director of Apologetics Press, whose aim was to denounce the so-called immorality of atheism and evolution, three years later, in 2005, was fired owing to multiple reports of child molestation incidents dating back to at least 1982.

Education
Thompson completed his BS in biology from Abilene Christian University and his MS and PhD in microbiology from Texas A&M University. He is an adjunct professor of Bible and science at Southern Christian University, Montgomery, Alabama (aka Amridge University). [2]
