Unlike Hovind, I'm not a YEC. However, IMO, were it not for his creationist ideology Hovind would have been out on parole by now.
Unlike Hovind, I'm not a YEC either. However, IMO, his incarceration is completely unaffected by his beliefs.

I don't think Buzz knows that Kent has other cases pending, not sure what though. I was wondering why they had him in administrative segregation and now believe I know why now. I think it is common practice to do that to prisoners with cases pending, I could be wrong.
I was more trying to balance Buz's unevidenced opinion with another unevidenced opinion. (I think I need one more unevidenced opinion to win.)

I thought this blog of his is rather amusing, he whines alot about how bad it is.
I bet he used to complain about prisons being like holiday camps...

It doesn't take much ability to find at least one point you have studiously avoiding answering.
Jar has posted it several times.
I have posted it several times.

Of note you have not referred to the only known and proven factor for re-pro: the host seed output!
I put "host seed output" into google and only got one result: a message posted by you on this forum.
Why do you think that we will understand terminology that is not even in google?

How would you describe it?
So - I say that your terminology is unknown to me (and google) and your response is to ask me what I think your terminology means?
Do you truly think that your English is understandable?
Why do you not believe us when we say that your English makes little sense?
How many people would it take for you to accept that your grasp of English is very confused?

Amazing, how is it you get away with no actual debating, no attempts at rebuttal and you are not required to address any issues involved in anyones posts, responses, questions or challenges
You have no intention of debating. Maybe someone else in the form of a debator will pick up where you failed to start.

Very well said [clapping hands enthusiastically]. But that's all you did. Saying so is not evidence.

I am not at all into any theology; I mention sections of Genesis only in an emperical mode. But I did more than just saying it - that is your position which I merely tried to point out. The scientific cause & effect premise is with Creationism; what have you got - name a scientific premise, as cause and effect cannot be allocated to a self propagating stream of nothingness as its alternative.
Proof and dis-proof cannt apply to any of those two premises and is thus neutralized. We are left with only one alternative from a science POV: a complexity is the result of a source of wisdom, intentional and purposeful - else it is not borne of wisdom or intelligence; this is the reason I find Genesis more plausable; namely the cause and effect for a complexity is more aligned with a source of transcendent wisdom, than random selection. One of those premises is not scientific, yet widely accepted as such. Someone is telling fibs here, and passing it off as science! But scence itself is a post-universe phenomenon which never existed at one time: how could it when there was nothing around to apply science to?

Pls tell us why nature is more scientific than a creator? Note that physical proof and the observance of an already working system cannot be put forth as a valid reasoning. IOW, you cannot say the sun gives energy and sustains life as the causative factor supporting nature: these are mere observances, not evidences, which can more easily be allocated to a creator.
You are the one making claims - it is your job to provide evidence.
