Kent Hovind - Analysis of Kent Hovind (Dr Dino)

The purpose of this site is to analyse the logic and science used in the presentations of a Creation Science Evangelist named Kent Hovind (right). This analysis will mainly focus on objective science issues related to Kent Hovind's "seminars" but detours will be made into understanding the nature of Kent Hovind the man. There will not be analysis of Hovind's theological position, Communist conspiracies, New World Order or Mark of the Beast claims (See conspiracy quotes).

The basis of Young Earth Creation Science is a literal interpretation of the Book of Genesis from the Christian Bible. The known Universe, planets, stars, animals and ultimately humans, it is suggested, were supernaturally created in six literal days around 4,000 BC. Approximately 2,300 BC the world was supposedly destroyed by a global flood except for a selection of animals and eight humans aboard the largest wooden boat ever constructed. (Sketchy details suggest the Chinese may have come close

Obviously Young Earth Creationism is in conflict with mainstream science in general and Evolution Theory (which only truly applies to biology) in particular. Note - the word 'evolution' can be applied to almost anything which changes or has changed over time.

This web site does not intend to debate the existence of any deity or the authority of any religious text. Nor is this site intended to be a treatise on the accuracy of Evolution Theory, but will correct any misrepresentations if they occur.

I have offered Kent Hovind the opportunity of an unedited, unlimited length, right of reply to be hosted on this site - so far he has ignored the offer. I have also offered to correct any errors or misunderstandings. This is not intended to be an invitation to debate, rather an indication I have given the accused the right of reply. Between December 10-12, 2003, Hovind & Son "reviewed" this web site on his internet broadcast, The Creation Science Hour.
