Christians only! No Atheist! People who know kent Hovind.?

Question

Do you Like Kent Hovind?

I SAD NO ATHEIST!!!!

Answer 1

He's interesting and he knows no one will claim the prize in his lifetime. Be interesting to see if there is a Hovind prize after his death!

The pro evolutionists here like the "think" it's a PROVEN science, when absolutly NOTHING in science is ABSOLUTE.

Einstein, Plank and Heisenberg has turned science into Swiss cheese with so many escape holes that there can be no absolutes.

Withe the genome and gene studies Science is now getting away from the "desended from Apes" concept because even they can't fathom how 3% of our genetics evolutionized in the period of time required.

Hence it's a safer bet to call us a "separate and distinct species" from Apes.

3% is large number of genes, some 3 to 5 million genes that had to evolve in millions of years. There is no documentary proof to show that amount of gentics can change that rapidly.

Hence Hovind's quarter million dollar offer a dandy prize to any scientist or anyone else who can prove ONE, just ONE evolutionary change scientifically with documented, imperical evidence.

Scientists in this 150 year old field that changes so slowly it takes millons of years for a human to "evolve" to some degree, know they have problems.

You can show plant changes. You can show insect changes. You can show viral changes. Complex creatures, however, are another story.

And you have to show the change inside and out.

I've proposed people study inter-racial breeding to see if blacks, Chinese and others with totally brown eyes would "evolutionalize" the off spring made with Northern europens who have Blue, Green and Gray eyes.

Will these genes be erradicated and if so, what is the process, the mechanism. How does it work, how long does it take and at what point will blue, green and gray cease being a ressive trait and vanish altogether.

It's an excellent case study that can possibly show an evolutioinary change in as little 1,000 to 5,000 years instead of 500,000.

This is what it takes to establish an evolutioinary change.

The new offspring get the blue/gree/gray as a recessive gene,w hich was never present in the Black or Chinese prior to the mating.

Now, what does evolution do with this new forced sets of genetics. DOes it live it be. Does the blue win out. Does the brown eventually irradicate the blue/green/gray elements.

But it's still going to take 20 lifetimes of scientists to even note a minor change in things and they ahve to look, have to pick a test group, have to keep tabs on that test group.

Answer 2

As long as Christianity, as well as several of the other "ultimate truths", have as their end and gleefully sought after goal, the END OF THE WORLD, and as long as they believe that their rights are being violated if they are denied the opportunity to use the coercive power of the state to shove their god down every ones throat, you will have to put up with us being in your face. Why should we abandon a forum where we can let you know that you will not be allowed to carry out the silly "End Times" rubbish that you seem to forget would include the rest of us.
Kent Hovind is an assssssss.

Answer 3

Why exclude atheists? Because we think that people like Hovind represent the rest of you? Puhleeze.

I just read the article on Wikipedia about him. He just seems to be a kook/con man that is trying to get out of taxes by claiming he's a minister. It's pretty interesting, but we don't lump people like that in with the rest of you. I've been an atheist for a very long time and I like you Christians...mostly.

I have a rule that keeps the peace between me and my Christian friends, don't try to convert me and I won't try to convert you. I don't make fun of Christians, and I don't care if my money says "In God We Trust" on it. It's part of our heritage.

Answer 4

Well, us heathenous atheists know who he is as well. Religious beliefs aside, he is a criminal.

Actually, I have heard/ read what he has had to say. Nothing to really say about that. Just another in a long line of attempts get religion back into the classroom.

Answer 5

Hovind's undertaking is worded in a fashion that makes it impossible to win. examine this out, absolutely everyone who isn't familiar with it: "I surely have a standing grant of $250,000 to absolutely everyone who can supply any empirical information (medical information) for evolution.* My $250,000 grant demonstrates that the hypothesis of evolution isn't something better than a non secular concept." WATCH THAT ASTERISK! right here is what it leads to: "* word: while i exploit the be conscious evolution, i'm no longer pertaining to the minor adjustments contemporary in each and every of the extremely some existence varieties (microevolution). i'm pertaining to the final concept of evolution which believes those 5 important activities befell with out God: a million. Time, area, and rely got here into existence via themselves. 2. Planets and stars shaped from area dirt. 3. rely created existence via itself. 4. childhood-varieties discovered to reproduce themselves. 5. important differences befell between those distinctive existence varieties (i.e., fish replaced to amphibians, amphibians replaced to reptiles, and reptiles replaced to birds or mammals)." besides the certainty that maximum of those 'numbers' do no longer fall everywhere close to what the thought of Evolution surely states (the ToE is a factor of biology--somebody want to tell me wtf megastar and planet formation has to do with biology?), it is likewise extremely specific that the thought of Evolution makes NO CLAIMS in anyway that ANY adventure befell "with out God." Evolution isn't, I repeat, no longer atheistic. understand that his definition of "the final concept of evolution" is an entire fabrication! He additionally asks for an impossible information, and that's 'instruct God did no longer do it.' soliciting for information of a customary adverse is absurd. one won't be in a position to 'instruct God did no longer do it.' it is why creationism isn't technology! something that may not be in a position to be falsified isn't technology. Hovind is flatly mendacity (he's on no account even been in a position to confirm that he has the prize money in any respect), and he's created a great strawman argument right here. For a miles better seem into how cheating this 'undertaking' is, examine my components out.

Answer 6

Kent Hovind's latest escapades..... http://fstdt.com/weekly/article.php?id_article=149 .... prove he's a freaking dumbass.

Answer 7

There are probably as many atheists who know the man as christians. I think he's a willfully ignorant fool who needs to go to jail for his crimes.

Answer 8

I would bet more atheists actually know who this felon is, so you will be more likely to get atheist answers.

Answer 9

I'm not an Atheist, but I wanted to warn you to please beware of this guy. I'm not saying you can't believe his ideas, but he is known for laundering money and being really shady. I just don't trust the guy.

He's falsly declared bankruptcy, has been arrested for assault and battery, and was arrested for burglery.

He's also been criticized by many fellow creationists for presenting false illogical claims.

Answer 10

He's a Christian brother.

Maybe you are referring to his work in creation science and evolution debunking. He's not the only scientist out there doing this.
