Kent Hovind is Crazy #38: Pangea

In this video, Kent Hovind denies another scientific theory: Plate tectonic theory. Hovind sets up a strawman argument then dismisses Pangea. I didn't bother including the physical evidence that geologists have which led to the scientific discovery because for the people who actually know the subject (or care to learn more) Hovind's claims are insane.

So not only does Hovind (who is a diploma mill graduate with no education in science) claim all biologists, chemists, physicists, archaeologists, biochemists, and so on are wrong, but not Hovind says geologists are wrong too.

This video again shows that Hovind's understanding is from elementary school books, and he doesn't even understand them.

Judging from comments by Hovind's supporters, it seems Hovind's anti-intellectualism serves as a breeding ground for disregarding anything scientists say in favor of wacky, baseless conspiracy.

Answer: take away the water and you get land. Pangea Theory destroyed.

@smartwarlord you calling Jesus evil, what did Jesus say to do such evils?

[smartwarlord]

@Laylow4now

What you've just said is as fanciful as if I quoted the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe as actual history.

The god of Christianity is evil. the Christian Heaven is also evil. Who would want to spend all of eternity praising a god that does not even give a reason for humans to praise him/her/it.

I mean really - I'd rather spend eternity with Aristotle, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson or even Stalin, than one second in the Christian "paradise".

@smartwarlord ....But that same Bible says that the people who choose death will regret it on that day. Why would you choose to die, without ever seeing what Heaven is actually like? You would probably really like it there. But the Creator will not force you to live for eternity. In actuality, the demons would hate it there, if they were forced to go back and live there, so the Creator in His mercy gives them what they ask for, which is death and not existing.

If Christianity is true, then yes, I'd rather not exist. Or burn in "hell" for eternity - depending on the Christian you speak with.

Christianity is a barbaric ideology, firmly rooted in superstition and delusion.

@smartwarlord .....Actually, either way you choose, you will still get to see the global flood of fire. But if you continue to reject Jesus, you will be consumed in it, instead of witnessing it from the walls of the New Jerusalem. Why would you choose to die? Seriously, do you just prefer death? Jesus created this world, then He came to live among us, as one of us, and now He is preparing to return. It will be an awesome day of joy for many millions, but others will run in terror and face death.

@Laylow4now

Jesus did not exist.

[Laylow4now]

@smartwarlord ....So Genesis 7, which states that the animals who died in the Flood were all the animals on dry land, in whose nostrils was the breath of life, somehow suggests that it was not a global flood? You are speaking just like the serpent in the garden by repeating the lie that God's Word doesn't really mean what it says. Yes there was a global flood of water, and if you give your life to Jesus, you will get to see the second global flood of fire.

Nothing you just said is factual. The Bible never suggests the flood was global, and the Hebrew makes quite clear it was not. Moreover, your entire interpretation of the waters "erupting" from the "deep" - is not based on the Hebrew but on a mis-translation into English. It's not in the text. It's not in the Bible.

We have cities like Byblos that are 8500 years old. Jericho and Damascus are equally old. For Heaven's sakes we've got human feces older than 4500yrs

@smartwarlord ...Well, an ice ball or asteroid would only need to be big enough to crack the surface of the earth, much like a bullet hitting an apple or other watery fruit. The resulting shock would crack the surface of Earth and cause fountains of the deep to erupt, just like the Bible said. Also, the main pyramid at Giza has never been accurately dated, so you are ball-parking it at best. Just after the Flood, about 4500 years ago, some very smart and strong people were living in that area.
