I'm pretty certain, by visiting his blog, that Ray Comfort is a total fraud. He has been told time and time again the same things since years now and he still repeats the same crap. Fraud. What puzzles me though is Kirk Cameron. I really can't tell. I think Kirk Cameron is genuinely idiot, because if he's not a complete retard he has to be extremely evil. The former seems more credible to me. So the relation between the two is extremely strange: I think Ray deceits Kirk. Scary and funny.
@Knr911 I agree with you on Ray Comfort. But I wonder if Cameron is not less thick if only slightly. I am not basing this on the fact that Cameron did smirk at the banana fiasco, one could tell he found the whole thing hilarious.
Wow... Hovind really claimed that the mollusk phylum was just one "kind"? Just imagine the rates of speciation that would have to occur within a mere 4500-year period...
@OsteologicalsRock He didn't even specify mollusks, he said "shellfish" were a kind. But I think this is more indicative of his (and really most people's) ignorance of what diversity really means, especially not realizing how truly little diversity there is in tetrapods when compared to the other vertebrate and invertebrate deuterostomes (not to mention the other phyla!!!)
@emptywithoutjesus Galileo, Newton and Kepler died long before the theory of evolution entered the scene, long before there was evidence for it.
They lived in a time when there was no other model of the origin of species, there is a difference between believing in something for which there is no alternative(creationism in their time) and believing in something that goes against all the evidence(creationism today).
You know what the real issue is? Its funny because what were discussing here is what I believe is Gods creation. The bottom line is this, where did it all begin? Where, how, why, with what? THAT, my friend, is where your faith is enormous in my opinion. You cant possibly talk to me about science when discussing such things. Imagine, all of these transitional species, including us, all came about by chance, and from what?! Incredible. And I am not being sarcastic.
You say, we have tens of thousands of transitional species just like Darwin predicted.
Can you please refer me to a list of the names of at least 10,000 of these transitional fossils?
Tiktaalik, a fish. Yea, its within its species. Im not moving the goal posts. You say on its way to becoming tetra pod I say, thats your opinion. I supposes only time would tell.
I get this all the time. Also with Australopithecus afarensis. I name the humanlike features, and then they say it is an ape and name the apelike features. And I then say: well there you have it: features of both in the correct time period: a transitional fossil. And then the human features suddenly do not count to *sigh*

I wonder why EWJ didn't comment on the transitional fossil? Hmmm...

Galileo, Newton, Kepler were Creationists
Was a comment I made (and still make) when refuting the idea that Creationists are stupid idiots. Thats all. Sounds like you misunderstood me.

Great response. Sadly I suspect he won't learn a thing from this.

Sounds like he is simply going to creationist websites for his answers.
