This guy is a smart idiot. He must have a huge financial reason for trying so hard to make sure people keep believing that creation is fact. I love how he says not to try and teach the religion of the big bang in schools and making him pay for it. These guys love to take the arguments of non-creationists and using them in their own arguments...they make it sound plausible to those who already want to stay in their religious belief system but the rest of us see through his double speak.

Thtas something you can bet your grandma on. He has several mega chruches and the entire ultra christian societies in his back so support his nonsense. He´scofounder if that infamous "creation-museum" and much more nonsense.

@tyseibert He proved nothing. Evolution is fact. You can see it with your own eyes. Of course there are different theories of evolution. There is a difference between a scientific theory based on observation and study and an hypothesis. Jeez...Even religions have evolved. Why else do you think you guys do not burn other people accused of being witrches anymore? At least not in more evolved cultures.

Can't be bothered watching this, but anyway, we can point to / demonstrate who created the computer, but not the universe.

@Mogley52 Have you ever heard of mutations? Those are what make the new variations. Mutations change the genes.

@Mogley52 what's the difference between eternal punishment vs eternal torment? Sound like the same thing to me.

Kent Hovind is a fucking liar. prove to me that he's not. any one?

ALTHOUGH I'M A CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIAN (Baptist), I no longer believe that the Bible teaches eternal torment or suffering. The Bible teaches eternal punishment, but it's not eternal torment. In my popular Internet article, TRADITIONAL DOCTRINE OF HELL EVOLVED FROM GREEK ROOTS, I explain how and why teaching of eternal torment entered early into Christianity and how Scriptures have been misinterpreted and taken out of context to support that teaching. ~Babu G.

SCIENCE SHOWS THAT THE UNIVERSE, because of entropy, could not have sustained itself eternally. Einstein confirmed that space, matter, and time had a beginning! That beginning had to be supernatural because natural laws have no ability to bring the universe into existence from nothing. The supernatural cannot be proved by science but science points to a supernatural intelligence for the origin and order of the universe ~ HOW FORENSIC SCIENCE REFUTES ATHEISM (Article)

DEBATE IS NOT OVER. In Darwin's time not enough science was known to refute macro-evolution. There was no understanding of genetics. Darwin thought the cell was just a simple glob. No one knew about DNA, RNA, proteins. Modern evolutionists now know, but the theory is entrenched as gospel and a lot of personal motives are at stake as well. Just saying that something evolved doesn't make it so! Read my article WAR AMONG EVOLUTIONISTS!
