    A controversy has erupted at a Christian college in Dayton, Tennessee over the school's affirmation of a literal interpretation of the biblical creation account including Adam and Eve. Several professors have resigned and four trustees have stepped down from their positions in disagreement with the leadership's handling of the issue and refusal to accept any interpretation of human origins besides the biblical account. The debate over creationism versus evolution at the religious school has caused ongoing division and rifts among faculty and leadership.
