Re: Kent vs AIG
I would have posted earlier, but I just got up off the floor after laughing until the tears ran down my cheeks!!! The cause? Well the quote from Hovind
"Therefore, there may not be any other stars in the solar system that have planets around them."
Surely buzsaw can see that this demonstrates total stupidity and an inability to engage brain before opening one's mouth. Just in case buz has the same problem as my hubby did when I read it out to him, the quote doesn't say "universe" or "galaxy" it says "solar system"! I did a double-take too. OK, solar system is defined as a system of planets around a star, in our case around our sun (which IS a star, buz, honest). HOW MANY SUN'S DOES HOVIND THINK ARE LURKING IN OUR SOLAR SYSTEM WAITING TO BE DISCOVERED? Maybe there's one hiding behind Uranus. At risk of overegging the pudding even more than I already have, one of the main things you tend to notice about a star within your own solar system is that it's big, it's hot, it's bright and darned difficult to miss (unless you live under a permanent blanket of cloud like we do in Scotland and even then the fact that we can see where we're going on a daily basis is a bit of a give away)
Buz, if you want to hitch your wagon (or star) to Hovind, then by all means do, but don't try to tell us that he knows what he's talking about because he doesn't have a clue!

Now that's a thought!!
I've always worried about Noah taking woodworm onto his ark. However, if Hovind is right that the Emperor of China was breeding fire-breathing dragons a few centuries ago and this was after Noah and his ark, I think that woodworm would be the least of his problems! How did they manage to prevent the ark being incinerated by the dragons? I suppose that with all the water around they could put out the fires very easily, but it must have been a bit fraught on there with the dragons and the methane from the rest of the zoo! ROFLMAO
