HI David,
Alrighty, let me just first say that this is my first post and I am glad to be here.
Welcome to the site David.
Okay, any evolutionist would claim they have proof for the theory, but if that is true, I have an excellent proposal for you.
This has been flogged to death all over the Internet David. The criteria for claiming the money is absurd.
There is a certain Creation Scientist named Kent Hovind.
Kent is NOT a scientist, he has no formal qualifications whatsoever. Hovind is basically an embarrassment, the guy is brain dead.
He is offering 250,000 dollars to ANYONE who can prove the theory of Evolution.
Kent Hovind doesn't have any money, and the panel of 'experts' are al handpicked by Hovind himself.
Is it the theory of evolution, or a theory of evolution, there are a few you know?
A theory uses facts in an attempt to explain another observable fact.
This is your chance....take him to court, but you wont, because you cant.
People have tried to gain clarification of what exactly Hovind would accept as proof of evolution, Hovind cannot even define what it is he is looking for, he has no idea what a 'kind' is for example.
You see, Scientific Evolution is an oxymoron,
You mean science has not evolved? I thnk you know as much as Hovind does.
it is a THEORY
Define theory for us David.
I find it very insulting that you think that my great somewhat grandparents, are monkeys!
There is not a single evolutionist on the planet that would claim that we came from monkeys, more Hovind amateur science, why do you listen to morons like Hovind?
If you want Kent Hovinds website, go here
I thnk we all know about Hovind, we have almost wet ourselves laughing at his claims many times before. I find his idea of a unicorn especially amusing:
Hovind's unicorn:
Go to a decent university library David, and look at some real science books, not the garbage that Hovind and his 'kind' promote.
Brian.

HI,
Stephen Jay Gould will have a hell of a time with Hovinid. It would be like a game of cat and mouse.
Gould would have to participate through John Edward of course!

The frightening thing about all of this is that there are people who point at Hovind quotes and think that they are excellent arguments.
Now we know that Kent Hovind is basically a moron, but what does this make the people who think that Kent is a genuis. It is very frightening.

Yeah, but Son of Stan will not be defeated LOL.
It looks like David Pryor has realised the error of his ways.
