Creation & EvolutionForum for the discussion of this important topic. This forum is open to non-believers. There is a Christians-only forum in the Christians-only section too.
I'd be amused, except that at the school I went to for 11th grade, his "Big Daddy" tract was considered to be the ultimate disproval of evolution--and the people there believed them and distributed them throughout the school.
Nobody there believed that gluons existed, because Chick said that nuclear physics contradicts the Bible.
It made the people there much more hateful of people like me who were Christians but accepted evolution. Well, it didn't convince me to stop accepeting evolution, but it WAS one of the things that got me to stop being a Christian.
Next up: God made man and dinos on the same day. I'm not sure even HOVIND endorses that one, the evidence against it is overwhelming (you'd think we'd find a fossilized dino with a partially digested human in it somewhere.
How ironic your last sentence is givin that Hovind fell for the Onyate Man hoax. Hovind not only thinks humans and dinosaurs lived together, he still thinks there are dinosaurs today (well, dinos and biolumenescant pterosaurs living in New Guniea.
He is? I think he's pretty mediocre, especially the way his characters continually deform throughout the strip (I mean, in that second last panel it looks like the girl's been worked over a few times).
what about the kids' expression in the first panel of the 11th row? it almost looks like a black characature from the 1930's.

Once again, I prove that while it's possible to overestimate Kent Hovind, it's virtually impossible to underestimate him. I should have figured that any crackpot theory has his name on it somewhere.
Im not quite sure but isn't a similar look given to one of the witches in the halloween or D&D tract?
Well, you know, cast aspersions on atheists and pagans in one go; efficiency and all that...

Then comes the Giant Evolutionary Conspiracy (TM). The nobel kid tells the others that the "truth" can be found in Kent Hovind's Creation Seminar. Kent Hovind holds the unique position of being perhaps the only creationist rebuked by AIG for "Bad Science." And Chick has a deal to help him distribute his garbage. Why am I not surprised?
Did anyone here actually think that the two wouldn't eventually join forces?
Let's face it. The typical creationist arguments against evolution are ineffectual and weak. As German colleagues Hanz and Franz would say, the typical "Too much dust on the moon" or "Evolution violates the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics" creationist arguments are wimpy, pathetic "Girly-man" evidence. If creationists want to impress real scientists, they must start supplying "manly-man" evidence - like Onyate Man would have been, if only he had been Real

Still don't see what was wrong with it

Hovind and Chick combine to form...
MECHACREATIONIST!
Somebody fetch Godzilla!
Darn it, there's a good link I'd like to post here, but it contains some profanity, so I don't think I can...
__________________ Greatest Hovind quote of all time, as voted for by members of CF:
"Teaching the pagan religion of evolutionism is a waste of valuable class time and textbook space. It is also one of the reasons American kids don't test as well in science as kids in other parts of the world."
Does anybody else get through a Chick Tract and feel like the whole tract didn't really say anything of meaning?
He just says what he thinks, and backs it up with "The Bible says." There really is nothing there to disprove, because he never offered anything to begin with.
