<a href="http://www.geocities.com/phineasbg2/wyd.html" target="_blank">Who's your daddy?</a>

More interesting and entertaining than <a href="http://iidb.org/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=3&t=001311" target="_blank">my refutation</a> of it, i guess.

But how come I can only see one page? Oh, you better get a backup server for it. Chick is notorius for shutting down critics who use his "art."

Well, it would appear that that page has become a little too popular, as Geocities is saying it'll be up again in an hour. Oh well.

I was able to read up to page 3 before it crashed... damn that geocities!!!

What what I was able to see, it's excellent.

More a mockery of Hovind's stupidity than anything else.

anyone know where I can find that "blistering editorial" I would love to read it.

I had a look around that Chick's publications site. Here's why they like to use cartoons that are big on crap and small on fact:

"Before you can share the gospel with someone, you must first get their attention. The world knows how to get and hold people's attention... with pictures! Television, movies, videos, comics, etc. Chick tracts use the same technique, using irresistible cartoon pictures to grab the reader's attention. Nobody, young or old, can resist cartoons."

Isn't it scary how they "use irresistable cartoon pictures to grab the reader's attention" rather than, say, logic?

Rimstalker, also, I didn't write this. I found it on alt.atheism...or it might've been talk.origins. Forgot.

They still have that embarrassing astronomy error:

Hipparcos did not measure anything 500 million light years away. It did measurements of objects within the Galaxy and close by objects in the Galaxy at that.
