You & RAZD created that straw man; why should anyone else back it up? Especially when it's such a healthy individual! You're lucky he lacks offensive capacity, that's what I think. Judging by his endurance and skill, you guys'd be in a world of trouble.


Kent Hovind stated that the lakes were formed by the flood. He goes on to say that the sudden overflow of those lakes toward the lower land in the southwest caused the rapid erosion of the Grand Canyon. If there were no global flood then, according to Hovind's proposition, the lakes wouldn't exist. Therefore, the rapid erosion could not have occurred and the Grand Canyon wouldn't be there.

Saying the Grand Canyon is a result of the Global Flood is not a strawman.

Additionally, the rapid draining of those lakes, again proposed by Hovind, would be categorized as massive flooding toward the lower level land in the southwest.

If you disagree with my rendition of what Kent Hovind has proposed, please provide your interpretation of what occurred to form the Grand Canyon. Then we won't have to be constantly building "strawmen" and can debate honestly.
