For those who hasn't read it, I kid you not. He literally started his intro with...
Hello, my mane is Kent Hovind. I am a creation/science evangelist. I live in Pensacola, Florida. I have been a high school science teacher since 1976.
In regard to that last sentence telling us he had been a high school science teacher since 1976, I am reminded of a Kent Hovind quote I saw some years ago.
quote:
Listener's letter: [.....] It is said the Sun is a burning ball of gas, in other words fire. What is the one thing that fire needs to burn? Oxygen. How come that stars continue to burn if they have no oxygen to keep them burning? [.....]
Hovind: Excellent question, Andres. I'm sorry but I don't know that I have a positive answer. [....] As far as the oxygen required, I'll have to pass on that one too and do some more study on that one. I don't know that I could prove one way or the other. I think there are different types of burning though - some do not require oxygen. Sorry about that, Andres. I'll have to do some research and check back with you on that one.

I'm sorry to say, but at this point in time and this country out of all the countries on Earth, everyone should know that what goes on in the sun is hydrogen burning (fusion). It's a simple concept. In a nutshell, 2 hydrogen atoms combine to make helium and energy. Everyone should know this by now, not to mention a high school science teacher of many years.
At this point, I truly feel sorry for all those students that were in his classes.
