The two minute intro already managed to spin me into a dimension of pissed off I haven't been in a while.

And here's some info on Hovind's $250.000 fraud.
The jist of it: "Prove beyond reasonable doubt that evolution is the only possible way life could have come into existence" (Which means that God must be disproved; which is impossible.)

Absolutely. It seems like it's the winning entry in "How many logical fallacies can you pack into one short video?" contest. Way to represent the intellectual bias of the religious right wing! Jesus Christ...

You could replace their views of evolution with religion and this video would be equally valid. Funny how they say truth this and lie that, yet give not an inkling of evidence (peppered moths don't count). The video says you should believe in creationism because the bible says you should, and that is that. And yet, they say you shouldn't believe in evolution for the very same reasons. How conveniently hypocritical of them.

Apparently God wasn't able to grace this embed video with volume modulation.

AND YOU CALL HIM OMNIPOTENT!

Also wow, this is indeed hilarious.

It's hard to believe that therr are people who actually believe this tripe. And that crap like this is used to further exacerbate their ignorance and delusional thinking. Christian capitalism and nothing more.

Totally bogus. We are promised ten incontrovertible pieces of evidence that evolution is wrong, yet all of them hinge on believing the Bible is something more than a dietary guide.

The first minute is a set of testimonials (from people who don't sound very highly educated). Science isn't really the result of a plebiscite. It isn't like the law, either, where you are right until proven wrong.

The bottom line is that no self-respecting scientist would claim that evolution is the ONLY explanation of how we got here - but as far as the evidence goes, so far it is the BEST explanation. If it turns out to be wrong, then ID still has to be supported by evidence - it isn't automatically correct.

Then the narrator spends four minutes telling us we will hear the facts, and we should judge for ourselves. She claims the Bible is completely trustworthy, based on archaeological a prophetic evidence - except it is not. Sure there is some archaeological evidence, but let's see the evidence for the Garden of Eden. Parts of it are clearly historical, but parts seem to be diet restrictions, more than anything. As for prophecy, go ask the Late Great Hal Lindsey about that.

The film goes on to paint God as a rather horrible person, causing most all the suffering and tragedy on earth. This is an interesting concept in itself. The purpose seems to be to threaten you into believing their line of reasoning (NOT making up your own mind!), or incurring His wrath.

The film uses the long-disproven watch-watchmaker argument, now in terms of a creation-creatOR argument. As for the $250,000 prize that hasn't been claimed, I'll give $1 million to anyone who can offer a shred of evidence that the Bible is the word of God. But _I_ get to be the judge, and you can forget about me accepting your evidence. The fact Dr. Hoven doesn't ACCEPT the evidence doesn't mean it's not there.

When Darwin visited the Galapagos islands 150 years ago, he cataloged seven species of finches there. Now, in just a century and a half, there are thirteen species on the islands, all native - definite PROOF of new species. But, of course this is ignored by the video.

Finally, the very act of referring to the "Myth of Evolution", the film is putting conclusions into our minds, just what the first four minutes said it would NOT do - we were supposed to make up our own minds, remember?
