Once your errors have been pointed out to you it is very dishonest to continue to make the same claims.


Yes, I would dearly like to see this addressed. I have the unforuntate suspicion that it will go unresponded to, unacknowledged, though it is simply a matter of editing one's quotation for all future posts. The question is, Russ Tanner, are you man enough to recognize the error and do something about it or will you continue to misuse the quotation (and thus misrepresent creationism)?

I don't know who Kent Hovind is but I'd like to throw out my two cent's worth after I've dug up some of the facts.
