@TheThunderduck "...claimed my house was a church." Well, it was not a church, but it was an amusement park. If you consider walking around in his back yard and looking at dinosaur sculptures amusing (which, apparently, creationists do)

@AlanCFA Hello, my name is Kent Hovind. I have been lounging in prison for the last several years because I cheated on my taxes and claimed my house was a church.

@Dporebski20

I can´t almost believe that M. Shermer consider himself a skeptic and HE IS NOT skeptic about the stupid idea that humans somehow evolved from one of those weird worm like cambrian marine cratures, that really blows my mind and even worst, he goes even further to deffend such a stupid idea with such a radical and extremist fervor...pity on him

@AlanCFA Ya I read most of it but had to stop, far too painfull to read. I stopped at about chapter 3 mostly because it was getting dumber by the minute, but also glaring errors and inconsistant logic, I mean, who stops half way through a thought to quote bible verses that have almost nothing to do with the thought

the best part I found was " christians are often guilty of neglecting or twisting the bilbe to fit their lifestyles or pre concieved ideas" (bottom of introduction) kinda ironic eh?

[AlanCFA]

@55metalmonkey For a really good laugh, Google for Hovind's dissertation. It begins thusly:

Hello, my name is Kent Hovind. I am a creation/science evangelist. I live in Pensacola, Florida. I have been a high school science teacher since 1976. I've been very active in the creation/evolution controversy for quite some time.

It only gets worse from there.

Why does everything with theists have to do with sex???

[55metalmonkey]

Michael Shermer presents a rational argument, Kent Hovind has nothing but strawman arguments, miss quotes textbooks and intermingles creation quotes (wales walking around) and attemps to make it look like a scientist said it when it was out of a creation publication.
