Here's some more gut busting entertainment folks, from our esteemed contributors to the <a href="http://www.talkorigins.org/origins/feedback/oct02.html" target="_blank">Talk.origin feedback</a>

About the speed of light: NEVER SAY NEVER! In fact, you can almost always lay a bet on it. Scientific truth is like jello. Only the politicians, media and small minds imagine it to be like concrete. Do'Ha' bachHa'.

Quote:

But, since I believe in God and a literal Genesis (with no room for evolution anywhere) I'm the idiot? Romans 1:20 (paraphrased) The Creation is proof of the Creator so we are without excuse!

I say to all who see this repent and be baptized everyone of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and you shall recieve the HOLY Ghost my name is Lee ****** I Live in Aberdeen SOUTH DAKOTA any quistions please send me a letter

I have watched Dr. Hovind's 7series seminar and have read enough derogitory information to his beliefs. From this I have concluded for myself that he is genuine in his beliefs and has proved them to me beyond a shadow of a doubt. He offers undeniable facts and links them with the "myths" of the Bible. Infact, I tell everyone I meet about him and his ministry. I have made coppies of his tapes and given them to over ten people who have carried on the chain. I will raise my children on my newfound beliefs because I can't seem to do enough research proving his accuracy on the history of the earth. It is a comfort to finally know the truth and to know that my voice is finally being heard because of the radical nature of this system. If you want to make a sentence in a paragraph stand out you highlight it in yellow or orange. Dr. Hovind has simply shown me how to attack the devil by highlighting my presentation of scripture. Thank God for Dr.Kent Hovind. I know I do. You, sir, truely are an inspiration and it is a wonderful thing to see you fulfilling your purpose. I hope that I have been able to give you some courage and inspiration if you needed it. I love you. Your sister in Christ, Isila

Oh my giddy aunt, that's hilarious! You've made my day.

This reminds me of an AIG article of the day where they pointed out that tbhey were able to convince newly converted (but undeducated)natives on an island that evolution is false and Genesis is true.

Seems to me it just shows the greater the level of education and the greater the thinking ability of the person involved...the more likely they are to accept macroevolution.

The poster who said she was going to use the thoughts of Hovind to teach her children the truth is downright frigtening.

The scary thing is that so many seemingly rational people take Hovind and Ham seriously. I have a friend who has a graduate degree from Indiana University (in the biological sciences) as well as an undergrad degree from Wabash U.

Not to mention that a lot of homeschoolers take hovind seriously.

Gee, I think most of the other months the creationists were worse!

That last one has to be a parody. No one that dense could function enough to operate a keyboard.

Bubba · 11-08-2002, 04:23 PM

Jedi, there really are people that are that stupid or worse. I once had a guy debate evolution with me who claimed that the Bible said that eggs were good to eat. He then pointed out that science had said that colesterol was bad, and pointed to another article that aid eating eggs was good.

He then made the arguement that if science couldn't understand a chicken egg it couldn't possibly understand the universe and that Genesis was our only hope.

The stupidity of these people knows no limit.

Hey thanks nightshade, those are funny. Well, they are funny until you realize they are real.

Did you really expect him to understand something that wasn't in black or white? (Either eggs are good, or they're bad... no in between)

I seem to recall the Hovind letter from his web site. Click and paste is to be expected from cretos.
