He does back it up scientifically, I don't get why everyone is saying he's not.
He uses the bible for his main source, but he does research.

That's nice, but the that's not what evolution is. Like I said, it's the wrong idea of it. There are people who have tried to justify racism, antisemitism, and lots of other horrible things with the wrong idea of Christianity. That doesn't make Christianity the cause.

The idea of evolution is that we come from animals and thus are nothing but animals in reality.

I don't think I've ever justified an action as "we are just animals". I also still don't see how that related to Hovind's associating evolution with communism, Nazism, etc.

Anyone can be convincing in a debate. THAT does not make their position correct, or their beliefs.

With that being said, I've stated my position, and it's not going to change even though you spout the same ridiculous stuff over and over, and claim that there is "proof", but show none.

I meant about creationism.

CLOPSED. If you want to discuss Hovind, do so somewhere else. If you want to discuss the originally topic, make a new thread in here.
