Nathaniel Abraham is a Creationist who was fired by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution as a post-doctoral investigator for being a Christian who doesn't believe in Evolution.[1] A lawsuit filed by Abraham was dismissed for not filing within 90 days.[2]
| “ | "Specifically, Dr. Abraham was a zebra-fish researcher at the acclaimed Woods Hole institution. From India originally, Dr. Abraham came to America with the hope of gaining a top-notch education, but in his postdoctoral work, he ran into the evolution police. Within weeks he was shown the door, leaving him with the prospect of losing his visa and having to leave the U.S. and ending his research (through a grant from the National Institutes of Health). In the process leading to his termination, an electronic and hard-copy paper trail exists that includes memos that expressly state that he was let go because of his creationist beliefs (and thus that he supposedly could not perform his duties at the institute)." -Mark Looy, Answers in Genesis.[3] |

After the firing, Abraham was hired as a biology professor at Liberty University.[4]
