We haven't had a Kent Hovind thread in a long time.

Evolution Ping The List-O-Links

A conservative, pro-evolution science list, now with over 320 names. See the list's explanation, then FReepmail to be added or dropped. To assist beginners: But it's "just a theory", Evo-Troll's Toolkit, and How to argue against a scientific theory.

I hope that's an observation, not a reason.

Is he the same guy who came on the Ali G show?

It is all about fleecing the flock.

Note that I didn't include the links for the above in the public interest.

“In a nutshell, debates like this do not settle issues of scientific understanding,” he said. “Hovind and his arguments are not even in the same galaxy as legitimate scientific discourse. This is why the faculty here has universally decided not to engage Hovind. The result would be to give the appearance of a controversy where none exists.”

He added, “The faculty on campus is under no obligation to waste its time supporting Hovind’s little charade.”

Exactly and perfectly stated.

Better dumb and right, than clever and wrong.

“No professor wanted to defend his side,” he said. “I mean, we had seats reserved for their people … ’cause I know one objection could have been ‘Oh, it’s just a bunch of Christians.’ So we had seats reserved for them to bring people to make sure that it’s somewhat more equal, not just all against one. And still nobody would do it.”

Wow, look what the flood did in about 30 minutes.”

And people wonder why we are afraid of the right wing.

Hovind and his arguments are not even in the same galaxy as legitimate scientific discourse.

This probably a clue to the origins of a lot of the trolls who infest this forum.

[verity]

Kent Hovind evolved physically, but not intellectually, from an ape.

[free_life]

So how about one you wise-en-heimers debate him and collect the cash? Nah ya got no facts just snide remarks....jokers...lol!

[Right Wing Professor]

Debating Hovind on science would be like debating Ted Bundy on the death penalty.

Still, I'd do it. I love a circus. I presume a few minutes devoted to my adversary's 'career' would be permitted?

Kent Hovind's $250,000 Offer

"Kent Hovind, a former high school science teacher turned creation science evangelist, said that evolution is the "dumbest and most dangerous theory on planet Earth" at a program in the Union on Dec. 6."

I couldn't agree more. He states it politely.

I'm still waiting for my gold fish to "evolve" into a cat. How silly people are ... to believe in "evolution" and all the nonsense that goes with it.

[“In a nutshell, debates like this do not settle issues of scientific understanding,”...]


A debate between the supporters of evolution and creationism is like a debate between the supporters of bicycles and bananas.
