Forrest Valkai reacts to Ken Ham's video about how evolution is nonsense.
He explains calmly and logically how evidence drives science, not faith, and he certainly doesn't "go crazy" as a reaction to fallacious arguments.
Weirdly, but not surprisingly, you can be religious into #youngearth creationism — Earth is less than 6,000 years old, like the Jewish calendar — but not be bothered by the 280ppm being god-given and worth holding onto. For reasons. Right-wing ones.
Or, you can be like #RFKjr into a kind of #wellness that rejects modern life, like #flouride and be #antivaxxers, but again — not be bothered by 280ppm being a good thing. For reasons. Similar ones.
I’ve put an arrow for when that TV show was.
I don't debate young earth creationists for the same way I don't go around smelling dog crap. I already know both are shit.
Kent E. Hovind (or, to use his full former academic title Kent E. Hovind, inmate #06452-017) (1953–) is a young Earth #creationist, promoter of imminent millennialism, con man, professional liar, and convicted felon.
Hovind promotes Young Earth creationist and #Christian #dominionist views in lectures and videos sold or publicized through his Creation Science Evangelism organization (despite having no legitimate degree).
Hovind created The Hovind "Theory" to explain how the global flood got all the water — namely, a comet did it. Hovind then proceeded to ignore all scientific evidence on dinosaurs gathered this side of 1960. Not satisfied with this record of failure, in 2001, Hovind started Dinosaur Adventure Land, an amusement park in his backyard.
