Someone got hold of Hovind's "thesis" once , it was laughable stuff - it had diagrams cut out of books sellotaped in, no real literature review to speak of, no real analysis etc. It did not even have numbered pages or a table of contents! (you would not even be able to submit such a document at any decent university let along claim a PhD off the back of !)
Doesn't the following tell you everything you need to know:
quote:
THE THESIS HAS NO TITLE. There are no references or footnotes. A few partial citations are included in the body of the thesis, but they are not in standard form, and are incomplete. In at least two places (pp 65-66) the citation simply notes that there is a book title to be added. This has no place in a final version.
The single illustration, the electromagnetic spectrum, is cut out of a science textbook and taped on; it does not fit the page. Additionally, there are substantial formatting errors typical of a draft, but not a final, version. The final version is printed on a dot-matrix printer, an absolute no-no, even in 1991.

It is fit for wiping your arse on but not much else. undergraduates who tried to hand in such tripe would fail.
