http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harun_Yahya

Adnan Oktar, nom de plume Harun Yahya (a.k.a Adnan Hoca) (born Ankara, 1956), is a prominent figure in Turkish creationism and a fervent advocate of creationism in the creation-evolution controversy. He is considered by some to be the leading Muslim advocate of creationism[1]. He subscribes to Old Earth creationism.[2][3] He is against Zionism and Freemasonry and sees them as very interrelated movements, though he denounces anti-Semitism[4] and terrorism[5].

Adnan founded the Science Research Foundation (SRF, or BAV in Turkish), whose stated objective is “to [establish]...peace, tranquility and love”[6]. , though the BAV is described in the media as “a secretive Islamic sect”[7] or a “cult-like organization, that jealously guards the secrets of its considerable wealth”[8]

In September 1999 Adnan Oktar was arrested following multiple sex scandals and further allegations that was fully covered by the Turkish media. In that court case, Oktar was charged with rape, slander, libel, bribery, blackmail and creating an organization with the intent to commit a crime. These charges were dropped but later resulted on May 2008 in Oktar and 17 other members of his organisation being sentenced to 3 years in prison.

Johnson at LGF puts out a lot of interesting things, but he is a dogmatic fanatic when it comes to creation science.

I applaud him for his work on the Dan Rather hoax and he was the first to spot the photoshopped Iranian missile launch.

BUT he despises Christians and is totally intolerant of anything except naturalistic explanations of the universe.

I just ignore that part of his work and enjoy the rest.
