RabidApe & Tribute To Kent Hovind cartoon taken off YT

[mspinney203]

Your vid is a favorite on Poland

[Roenazarrek]

y so many dislikes?

[yanashkidd77]

so wat? big deal who cares if some dum vids were taken of utube. hahahah someone removed trolls videos

[yanashkidd77]

so wat? big deal who cares if some dum vids were taken of utube

[eddygoombah]

@yanashkidd77 well, it's a felony for starters. and then there's the whole "free speech" thing. so, yeah... a lot of people care.

[alienisuntverus]

File a counter DMCA claim stating that everything in the video was legal. It never actually used an kent hovind clips and the only time it mention him (without making fun of him) was to point out that Kent is in jail and when he gets out.

[Eye2Eye35]

(Copy & Paste)

Kent Hovind was only trying to help a world so isolated from the truth.

PS: Just gutter-mouthing someone like Kent Hovind is not gonna make you the "right, and you've won the argument". It doesn't work that way at all. So why don't you just give a proper argument of why you think it can't be true, instead of just wining like a baby with no lame sense.

"What are you talking about with the "denominations" bullshit?"

Evolutionists/neodarwinists give the perception that they are divided into several different denominations because of the varying definitions of evolution. It's been said it is easier to nail jello to a tree than to get a solid, consistent definition of what the heck evolution is, in the first place. One says evolution is simply "change" while another says we're related to pond scum. Yet another claims abiogenesis.

[PachucoDesigns]

Hearing these creationists lost in the darkness of their own delusion is hilarious to me. I know that none of them listen to anything they hear, they simply close their ears and say "la la la." All anyone really needs to see is thunderf00t's WDPLAC videos, and he actually lays out the math to destroy Hovind's argument. And even if they don't accept that, I'm sure there are other scientists who would be more than happy to elaborate further.

Creationists are the essence of ignorance and stupidity

[CiscoWes]

"Creationists are the essence of ignorance and stupidity"

Ad hominem arguments never lend any credibility to your side. Besides, it is the evolutionists/neodarwinists that believe that humans are distant cousins of field mice, all life came from some single celled organism over a billions of years ago, or a pineapple and a porcupine share a common ancestor. I know that evolutionism has several different "denominations" if you will - but think about all this and then rethink who is "ignorant"

[eddygoombah]

"Ad hominem arguments never lend any credibility to your side. Besides, it is the evolutionists/neodarwinists that believe that humans are distant cousins of field mice,"

You know, accusing others of something, and then directly doing the same thing is probably the single dumbest way to make an argument besides hitting your head with a mallet

[PachucoDesigns]

Thanks for the defense, eddygoombah.

[CiscoWes]

"You know, accusing others of something, and then directly doing the same thing is probably the single dumbest way to make an argument besides hitting your head with a mallet"

Every example I've given was based on earth-shattering new "discoveries" that we read about, and some actually believe. No straw men, red herrings, etc... This is what the evolutionists are "discovering".

[eddygoombah]

again, simply because you are willingly blind doesn't automatically mean you should warrant any sympathy.

[PachucoDesigns]

First of all, don't blame me for ad hominem attacks if you're going to use straw man arguments.

Second of all, there is no belief about it. The difference between "Evolutionism" and creationism is the fact that scientists believe nothing and test everything until it can no longer be disproven. So far, biologically, chemically, it's making more and more sense, and they are on their way to the answer.

[PachucoDesigns]

Now, I suggest you consider those who believe the universe is 6,000 years old. I suggest you think about those who believe all species with nostrils on this planet were herded on a single ark and kept afloat. I suggest you consider the church's travesty against Galileo and their late apology.

I've thought about who is ignorant. And it's not those who disbelieve until there is proof.

[clairewaldorf2]

"I know that evolutionism has several different "denominations" if you will"

What are you talking about with the "denominations" bullshit? You've already indicated in one of Eddy's other comment sections you've never actually read any science, much less scientific journal articles about evolution, so you don't know shit from shinola. You're just an ignorant spammer out for a troll.

[CiscoWes]

"You've already indicated in one of Eddy's other comment sections you've never actually read any science, much less scientific journal articles about evolution, so you don't know shit from shinola. You're just an ignorant spammer out for a troll."

I haven't said I don't read articles on evolution. Secondly, I'm not spamming. (Unless criticizing evolutionism is now considered spamming - yet another way to silence the opposition to your sacred cow of evolutionism???)

[cowndelorean]

Go Eddy, love your song!

[YellowFrog18692]

thats such bs how can they do that

[PKOctober]

just wanted to say to eddy: great song and keep up the good work.

It's important that people stand up against fucktards like Hovind (and any other creationist for that matter).

And altho my ability's are quite limited, I would be glad to try and help you with anything you may need help with.

[lordyunii7]

TurboFritz, i agree with you. the only ppl that stand up to Hovind are 'so-called' scientists. the Hovind tribute is a complete shame anyhow.

[eddygoombah]

"so-called" scientists, ok.. like 99% of the scientific community disagrees with Hovind... Even Most creationists don't agree with him... AiG calls his ideas "bad for the creationist movement". No, but that's cool... you can think that if you want.

[KX250forme]

ill tell ya 1 thing you can keep makein up your lies about kent but ill keep backin him. you need help buddy and lot others just like you. funny thing is you think your smart. damn pride il get ya every time. your pathetic

and you never been layed. am i close

[eddygoombah]

you know what KX... you have provided no information nor evidence supporting any argument you may or may not have towards creationism or kent hovind. Only "Kent is right" and "you never been layed".

you are nothing but a troll. and trolls get blocked. Either provide pithy discourse, or leave.

[TurboFritz]

What is the purpose of slandering Kent Hovind? Making fun of a person who is in jail?? hah... how manly is that? I bet that under 1% of you would dare to do it if you stood face to face with Kent Hovind.

[eddygoombah]

I'll gladly make fun of anyone as deluded and deceitful as Hovind, or any creationist for that matter, just as I would someone who promotes the idea of a flat earth. Both are complete fabrications to uphold an obsolete ideology, and intern do a great disservice to Christianity everywhere. The fact that ANYONE would defend such an obvious liar and felon is just a bit telling at the brainwashing that goes along with certain cultish Christian sects.

[downloader33188]

all of you that bash Kent Hovind are just mad cause he is right!He Shows that there has to be a God!cuase time,space and matter didn't come from nothing!

[AceGikmo45]

I made a project last year debuning creationism and I used hovind as my representative for the creation side. My teacher said that his arguments were so bad that it would be pointless to even make the project. I had to find other people like Ray Comfort and Kirk Cameron. Still he told me that the arguments were so bad that I really shoul not even bother. Luckily he let me do it thought and I got a 9 on the assigment.

[emandreg017]

Your exactly right and i dont see how people can logically examine the evidence in the debate and still deny creationism. Hovind is exactly right.. everyone knows it they just deny it because of pride in themselves that everything they have been taught is totally false. it really started bu the Illuminati but thats a whole other discussion.. God Bless

[eddygoombah]

lol... ok

[emandreg017]

ok honestly lets forget this debate and we'll find out when we die ..lol but honestly the Illuminati started it. if u dont know what bohemian grove, Rothschild's, Bilderberg and symbolism then i would have to conclude your living in a box. your living in a world that hates God because they have to submit to authority. so our sick government tries to control and influence us to reject him as a Savior.. the majority of our worlds leaders literally worship Satan. look it up.

[eddygoombah]

again... lol... ok

[emandreg017]

lol.... ok.hahaha ok bro...

[DocStrange0123]

@emandreg017 and then people like you wonder "why people laugh at us"? XD do you think there's only 2 options here? you being right or eddy being wrong? for the sake of the argument eddy being wrong doesn't equal you being right but i don't think you get what I'm talking about... otherwise your party would be over... *sigh*

[AaronEdison]

lame

[kubush]

Can't they get fined for claiming false copyright?

[eddygoombah]

yes

[eddygoombah]

I don't swear usually. But frankly, GodsDaughter, you're full of shit.

[goodshorts]

your video was dumb anyway.

[eddygoombah]

what video?

[NikitaLion]

you sure have a lot of haters

[eddygoombah]

you should have seen the bout with a former member of YouTube called antiglobalists. I don't get it. I'm really a nice guy. lol. I don't even think I'm saying anything that crazy, either.

[NikitaLion]

Well, what can you do, it's no wonder people refuse the idea of being a rather "unimportant" part of the universe. People want to be special.

[machinator1971]

That's cause he is eddygoober

[vovaonezeroone]

i agree HIS (eddygoombah) videos are retard

[NikitaLion]

And I agree that you are retarded.

[samheb]

these are the rules of youtube. you must follow the rules then. did you not read the rules?

[eddygoombah]

the rules were followed. That's why all of the accounts and videos that were suspended have been reinstated. However, the CSE ministries filed fraudulant DMCA claims, saying that they not only had copyrighted materials in the videos (which was untrue), but they also illegally copyrighted open domain media, which is a felony. Those are the rules.

[samheb]

thanks eddygoombah for your reply. i will do more research on it.

[some12guy]

ive got an idea put the video back on but add a disclamer at the begining to it saying

"all characters in this video no matter how simmilar to any one are not based on real people and are all fictional" or some thing like that. lol but im for hovind.

[olunda]

I'm upset. Keep up the good work!

[swander57]

the fact that my arguments are supported by two universities and yours are coming from your computer and ur couch, really makes me wonder what kind of sites you go to other than YT. now i see what all of the professors were saying when they talk about "self taught students"

[A1CMargulis]

"For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Chirst Jesus our Lord." --Romans 6:23

JESUS LOVES YOU.

[eddygoombah]

please save me from another bible quote. Throwing out nonsensical diatribes written 2000 years ago by a couple of nut jobs do nothing to solidify your position.

[eddygoombah]

Thank you for being so cordial this time. The fact that you think that I specifically "deny" christianity is proof of your solipsistic perspective. Kent Hovind and his ilk did something illegal, and unconstitutional. The fact that you are even remotely defending his actions seriously puts any of your arguments into question.

[swander57]

on the contrary, eddy, why would we religious people be getting mad if no one would attack us or go to the great lengths as to live to torment and deny Christianity? why are u so worried about us? haven't u things to do in the spare time? i don't think so. that is why we get mad.

[swander57]

i had this idea that ur a fag who has no life other than trying to hurt people's feelings.

when u make fun of Christianity ur making fun of people beliefs and what they base there life around. have u even read the Bible? u guys try to act like it is witchcraft and it is just Jesus saving ur ass from hell.

[eddygoombah]

ahh, the ol' "christian calls someone a fag" routine. I had this idea that you are exactly the reason people get fed up with religious people. Please, keep talking. We all need a good example.

[mattchanner]

wow swander have YOU read the bible?

watch your mouth

love your neighbor no matter how willingly ignorant they are.

as for this video you got a point eddy its true that there is some injustise here (for give me for my spelling) but i personaly dont think its that big of a deal its just a cartoon bashing on some guy.

[deBeuk]

I just had an idea that might show just how many people are pissed off by this. We could all record ourselves singing along with the chorus, eddie (or someone else) could then edit them together and post the result on youtube.

[Kunado]

Petition. A simple petition.

[tigeroak]

Youtube and the CSE have just unleashed a huge legal battle. I would be more than willing to contribute money to help fight the CSE and I think most anti Hovind people would do the same. Creation Science is very dangerous to the future of mankind. They want to take us back to the middle ages. Religion and science should leave each other alone. Lets put our money where our mouths are.

[eddygoombah]

please sponsor the Rational Response Squad!!!

[Dalbert342]

I want too contribute too,but dont have a paypal account

[JohnBach]

Mad props on the song, dude... you have mad singing skills!

[sandar2020]

You and Rabidape rock. If there is anything we can do to help let us know.

[robertangel30]

they can't win via facts so that have to lie. SCREW THE CSE!!!

[gklr]

Great cartoon. Clearly it isn't Hovinds work. Good luck.

[fapplemstar]

Yep, it just so disgusting..... I can twist your words too keep money in the collection plate but I'll be damned if your going to twist the twist on your words to clarify them... Whatever, just another brick in the road for my rapture from indoctrination. Loved the cartoon by the way! H20=Jesus, LMAO...

[fapplemstar]

Under the same reasoning that these videos and accounts are being removed, why can't CSE videos that dispute "claims of the lost" be cited for infringement... Answers in Genisis, by Ken Ham, quotes Dawkins at least once per page in the first chapter... and proceeds to twist the hell out of it... So all CSE videos that use this material could be cited by Dawkins (for example)...

[eddygoombah]

because... well, i don't really know why... Seems kinda... well, double-standard-ish kinda, don't you think? Maybe it has something to do with them hiding behind the good ol' "religious persecution" card.

[munkiiboi]

the RRS is on it, go help them if you can!

[urbanelf]

I loaded your video on my channel. Let me know if you want me to take it down.

[memoryofakiss]

im sure many people myself included would be willing to repost these videos. let them try to take them down again.

[eddygoombah]

go for it!

[Dalbert342]

Eddy,your song is a great hit:) great work

[Dalbert342]

Eddy,I made a call for support too you guys...I'll attach it too your video;)

[Dalbert342]

I LOVE IT,EDDY

[deBeuk]

I complained on Kent's blog at cseblogs dot com. Maybe they'd appreciate it if we all did that.

Sorry to hear it was taken down, Eddy, Rational Response's site has some info on what they're planning, maybe you can join up with them.

[urbanelf]

I loved your song and the animation. I nearly busted my gut laughing when I first heard it!

[CapnOrdinary]

I really don't think they were expecting there to be powder in this keg when they put the match there....

They're gonna have to learn it the hard way.

I would suggest we organize a fund for everyone who's had shit removed by these whiny little maggots and can't afford legal counsel, and then sue the living shit out of them.

[Brianj1234]

The CSE has no idea what a sh*tstorm they've stirred up. lol

[xxxild]

just give copies of your cartoon out and distribute it widely. it works. upload it to private if you can so I can copy it?

[xxxild]

also, submit this video to rabidap3's so people can find it?

[Brainmold]

I just loaded the cartoon to my videos.

[westphalianprinz]

Kent Hovind's minions are childish. They can't take any criticism. What if rational people did this to THEIR videos? They'd be screaming persecution!

[eddygoombah]

yup!

[yanashkidd77]

@westphalianprinz kent hovind doesn't have any minions but he still owns. its is enemies that have minions and i think ur 1 of dem

[GnosticAtheist]

Oh... Oh... Oh... War... War... War...

E-WAR!!!

[yanashkidd77]

@GnosticAtheist you already lost hahhahahahah!!!!LOL!!FAIL!lol!­!

[eddygoombah]

@yanashkidd77 actually, all the videos that were taken down by the cse were reinstated. So, we actually won the war. sorry

[yanashkidd77]

@eddygoombah wat war. o are you talking bout the one that you lost. sorry mate

[eddygoombah]

@yanashkidd77 You don't even know what it is your talking about, do you

[ozatheist]

I can re-upload this if you want

[eddygoombah]

definitely!

[grayfox2k]

WHAT THE FUCK!! NOOOO nooooo!

that is fucking unbelievable!!!

web2.0? yeah right!

freedom of speech? MY ASS!!

ok, who's email should we spam to get them both back!?

[eddygoombah]

Thanks grayfox... I appreciate the concern... And I am really disappointed as well, however, we want to make sure NO ONE gets spammed or flagged. We are handling this through legal channels and may file a number of lawsuits... But just give us time, we are taking care of this. Peace.

[grayfox2k]

k i understand... though of course i didn't mean to literally SPAM! :P just who do we send our complaints or requests to?... (if that's going to help)

[YahooJerseyRick]

What are they claiming was the copyrighted material?

The only thing I can think of is the pictures at the end of the video.

[dfarmer1584]

WHAT THE FUCK!

This is total bullshit!

[HisRoyalDudeliness]

Wtf? I never saw the cartoon.

[dragon2wolf]

Yeah, this is complete bullshit. Apparantly YT is in the pocket of the CSE

[RobAlone]

BS is right.

[thestoneddog]

we should all repost the tribute to kent hovind video and we should all host rabidapes videos. as well we should find out what on the tribute to kent hovind video was copyright infringement.

[eddygoombah]

Let's Do it!

[thestoneddog]

do you know were we can get a copy of the original tribute to kent hovind video

[eddygoombah]

Ask Chrisboe4ever, the animator... but I think we have something pretty big in the works

[thestoneddog]

also i just checked youtube and if it was pulled due to a dmca compliant you can file a counter compliant to it just search the youtube help and search for dmca.

[eddygoombah]

Thank you!

[BalmungSama0]

That's ridiculous! Copyright? They don't own the video! They don't own Hovind! And even if they did, since it was for satirical purposes, it's perfectly legal!

And RabidApe was suspended? Why? Because he was offensive? And VenomFangX's constant hatread of Islam, insults at atheists and lies don't get banned? Double standard.

The only reason YOuTube did this was because they were afraid of a lawsuit. Even without a case, the costs are simply too great for them right now.

[eddygoombah]

I think RabidApe got suspended because he initially held the contest to create the cartoon for my song.... But i don't really know... My main problem is that I don't now what I can do, what WE can do to get this reversed... any ideas anyone?????

[BalmungSama0]

We can use a petition, but those never work. It might be fun, though.

Really, there isn't anything we can do. Unless one of us has a multi-million dollar corporation set up to counter Christian "Science" Evangelism, we really can't do anything. The best coarse of action is to get Ape to make a new account and re-upload his videos. Hopefully he saved them. If not, I'm sure he's more than popular enough to have been downloaded and spread.

I hate how much this sounds like a submission.

[BalmungSama0]

Him getting banned for hosting that contest is without a doubt, the most ridiculous part of this entire story (which is really saying something when people file copyright suits for videos with no copy-written material).

[Facecageworshipper]

Um, Im not very schooled in law, but ExtantDodo said that saying that they had copy-right to the tribute to Kent Hovind, which had no copy-righted material, it would be a felony.
