SPLC article on Hovind |
The summer 2004 issue of the Southern Poverty Law Center's "Intelligence
Report" magazine has a brief article on "Dr." Kent Hovind:
From the article:
---------------------------------
When Giants Roamed: A Florida theme park sells creationism - with an
antigovernment twist
By Camille Jackson
If you can prove that evolution is real, there's $250,000 waiting for you
in Pensacola, Fla. . if the IRS doesn't get to it first. Kent Hovind, a
51-year-old evangelist also known as "Dr. Dino," challenges evolutionists
with this offer at the entrance of his homage to creationism, Dinosaur
Adventure Land, "where the Bible and dinosaurs meet."
There are no roller coasters, no Ferris wheels, no popcorn or cotton candy
at Dinosaur Adventure Land. Instead, visiting children are treated to a
creation museum, science center and bookstore, an assortment of outdoor
games with names like "pterodactyl glide" . and a big dose of Dr. Dino's
theories about the beginnings of the universe.

I think the most unbelievable thing about Dinosaur Adventure Land is that
Hovind never paid a $50 building permit. What a skintflint

Loved this:
"But there's one place Hovind won't be taking his message: Comedy
Central's The Daily Show, which recently asked him to appear. "Some
people think it's a joke," says the guide."

Oh ok .... I'm assuming this has something to do with being a Biblical
retort against the evil man-made bureaucracy of evolutionist secular
government - but why refuse $50?

The usual nonsense that the government has no right to tell his
church what to do.

This guy wanted help to with his nearly $100K legal bill to fight
a $50 building permit.

If I hadn't read it from the actual support group I'd find it difficult to
credit. Absolutely barking ... whatever happened to 'render unto Caesar'?

Ah well
Sadly, that lined was spoken by Jesus to not comment on the need to pay
taxes, as money had the face of Caeser. Now that the US has "In God We
Trust" on it, we must render unto God and Caesar. Course, in Hovinds
mind, his god takes precendence. Ironic that a great line from Jesus is
neutered by bible thumping fundies from the 19th and mid-20th century.

Ah well
Caesar's dead, silly evilushionist. You have to take the Bible absolutely
literally, so clearly Jesus was only talking about that Tiberius guy. Once
he died, nobody owes the government nuthin'.

I see. So "what an idiot" would be a more appropriate phrase, not that
it wasn't already obvious...

That's new - I didn't realise that Hovind flogged 'The protocols' - I
wonder if Murphy wants to retract anything about evolution leading to
anti-semitism and death cults?
Nah - didn't think so
