• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Nope. But that was because he was wrong on the science. After it turned out he was not only wrong on the science but appeared to mock the God in whose name he was speaking, well, it just kinda all fit together.
And the car that has a JESUS IS MY PILOT bumper sticker that goes through a red light ... he okay or not, your honor?

-sigh-. You don't have to justify your support of Kent Hovind! Honest! It's all good. If you think that those who speak and act in God's name by swindling other innocent people are doing OK and worthy of support, then by all means support them! Good for you!

As I said, if you can set your ad hominems aside, you'll see that he is a rich source of information.

Two things that stood out the most to me in that video are:

1. Don't tell me mine is "religion" and yours is "science".

2. We say all these breeds of dogs came from one species that got off the Ark; but you say they came from a rock.

He's a rich source of apologetics.

LOL. I'm more than amply familiar with Kent Hovind. AND I bet dollars to donuts that I'm more familiar with the science he argues against than even you are!

2. We say all these breeds of dogs came from one species that got off the Ark; but you say they came from a rock.

LOL. That's a bit of an oversimplification. Not technically accurate either. But what would you expect from a man who steals in God's name in order to get richer?

He's a rich source of apologetics.

I feel sorry for God, then. I guess.

Second of all, the Grand Canyon didn't "form," it was created when God pulled Eden (Pangaea) apart into five large continents.

And He apparently added millions of years of river erosion and geologic strata deposition that never happened, just for fun.

Justice ... which he got.

But the court of public opinion is still in session, isn't it?

Still though, shooting the messenger to try to quell the message isn't going to get you anywhere.

Which came first: the Colorado River or the Grand Canyon?

I say the Grand Canyon ... what say you?

C'mon man. SURELY you've heard all the refutations of Kent Hovind. Do you REALLY need someone to tell them to you again?

Yep, there is no doubt that man is either an idiot or a liar. I found this short clip of his where he conflates the formation of a star with the Big Bang. At about 4:30 in the video you can see that his source is no longer on the Big Bang. No wonder he failed science:

Yep, that stood out for me too. That shows that he is either incredibly dishonest or incredibly stupid. Or perhaps a combination of the both.

2. We say all these breeds of dogs came from one species that got off the Ark; but you say they came from a rock.

And Hovind thinks that man came from dirt. The difference is that we have evidence for our claims, he has none for his. In fact the evidence clearly point out his errors.

He's a rich source of apologetics.

He really should be apologizing for his preaching. He makes Christians looks dishonest and ignorant. And I know that most Christians are not that way.

My error, I thought that your song in your sig referred to Kent.

And no, if you want to hear it you could search for "A tribute to Kent Hovind" on YouTube. The lyrics are not safe for this site.

Ah, gotcha. No, that's my brother's song in the sig.

My handle is a Tool reference, so I thought you might be referring to their song, "Lie, Cheat, and Steal." lol.

I'll check out that Hovind song.
