He reserves the right to screen the evidence presented and only show the panel that evidence he chooses to...
I`m starting to wonder...
a)will the panel consist of a bunch of dyed in the wool creationists?
b)will he accept and pass along any evidence that counters his claims?
c)does the $250,000 even exist?
The offer is to be short spurious....
Well if the panel would consist of people who believe that evolution is fact and not belief you said it your self, I don't say evolution isn't true, I say it isn't proven, I don't say creation is true, I say I believe it.
Evolution is a belief with no scientific evidence, only more theories. If you can convince Dr. Hovind that evolution is fact/science, he will pay you $250,000. He's not saying come to me with a theory, everything you have is theory, he even calls creation a theory, just because you don't agree with it, doesn't mean you're right. I don't believe in evolution, that doesn't mean that I am right. I believe in "The Theory of Creation" and I say to you PROVE IT WRONG! Stop replying with more lies and bashes on Dr. Hovind. If you want to bash him, he will pay you to do it.
'...this is my open challenge to debate any one (or group of people)** who believe in evolution. I will even pay them $100 if they will debate.....' - Dr. Kent Hovind

Typical silly reasons why evolutionists refuse to debate creationists:
1. There is no debate; evolution is a fact- all scientists accept this.
2. Creation science is not science.
3. We don’t want to give a platform to creationists. Creation belongs in the church and evolution in science class.
4. The average audience doesn’t understand the complexities of evolution so it is hard for an evolutionist to explain in the short time allotted. This makes it appear the creationists have won. [Hovind translation of this response-Evolutionists are smart and everyone who does not believe in evolution is too dumb to realize this.]
5. Hovind is a professional debater who gets paid to do this. I’m just a teacher/researcher. I have never had a debate class in my life. I don’t get paid to debate, I will pay them!
6. Dr. Walter Brown has a list of other common excuses (and a well reasoned response to each) listed at
