The only one you got right was that the universe is billions of years old.

Not really. Evolution could still work in a millions-of-years old universe. It would just require drastic restructuring of the assumptions of the underlying history.

Mind you, current common descent theory requires billions of years, but evolution is more than common descent.

I'm no fan of government schools, but can you imagine the fate of someone home-schooled on Hovind material? The poor child would emerge from that mind-killing experience as well-equipped for life in 21st century America as is a pygmy warrior emerging from the tall grass in the Congo, wearing his loin-cloth and carrying a spear.
