Kent Hovind asked Kent Hovind if Kent Hovind's theories were right and Kent Hovind confirmed they were.

If Kents not happy with you, you know you're doing something right👍👍😅

So, basically his entire refutation is just him going "nuh-uh" over and over again?

Kent Hovind is my constant reminder that Upton Sinclair was right: "It is impossible to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on his not understanding it." His con job only works as long as he doesn't admit that he's wrong.

The irony of a creationist saying "that's all religion and made up"

When I was a Freshman and Sophmore my mom put me in a Creationist School. We went to Kens museum/exhibit thing. They had a piranha in a tank and claimed it was only a year old but larger than and piranha in the wild because the raised in a red light. Similar to how the Earth was once encapsulated in a water membrane and the light coming through would have been red...thats why the bible had giants and people living for hundreds of years...I told my mom I had to get out of that cult school she obliged and ultimately I had to get my GED because obviously the school was not accredited in TX. Now I have a B.S. in Manufacturing Engineering and Mechanical Systems. I'm doing just fine without God and those tounge speaking lunatics.

Kent Hovind's "whacking" is in rather poor taste considering his domestic assault conviction.

I was raised Christian, my mom used to take me to see people like Kent, and I used to believe all that nonsense until I was about 18. Now, when I look at these guys, they all seem like the epitome of pure evil to me. I'm so glad I broke out of that cult.

He called you Spongebob? I mean that's far from an insult lol. He lives his best life every day and is loved by millions. Something that guy will never understand

Not only did Kent not make any good points, he didn't make any new ones.

Kent Hovind showed his intellectual integrety in the discussion with Bill Nye. Host: What must happend to change your mind? Bill Nye: New evidence Kent Hovind: Nothing can change my mind.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="502">8:22</a> "It's an immagination" says the guy, who believes in an invisible, omnipresent guy in a white robe who's living somewhere in the sky. The irony...

I may be foggy on my history but I believe Copernicus was "owned" by someone in the Catholic church at the time by them telling him to watch their video #7.

It is written that there was a man who used his supernatural power to fight evil, and then was killed by evil. Later, he rose from the dead. It is written that many people saw these events and they would not lie about it. The man's name was Harry Potter.

My car's tank is full and the fuel is used up as I drive, so I can't drive it more than 5 meters.

“… Science is constantly proved all the time. You see, if we take something like any fiction, any holy book… and destroyed it, in a thousand years’ time, that wouldn’t come back just as it was. Whereas if we took every science book, and every fact, and destroyed them all, in a thousand years they’d all be back, because all the same tests would [produce] the same result.” ― Ricky Gervais

The thing about debating Kent is, no matter what you ask him, he won't be prepared for that.

I’m a person of faith. Believing the earth is 6,000 years old is not a requirement of Christianity. Keep shutting these weirdos down

If a creationist is unhappy with you, you're doing something correct.

I wonder what Kent does when people bring up court cases involving tax evasion, assault charges, domestic violence, and other things...

Faith in a story vs. trust in scientific evidence. Faith requires zero evidence but apparently also requires continual embellishment. This man's GRIFT runs deep and his profits rely on belittling and word-smithing and you'd be best not to bother confronting him.

“Watch my video” is his euphemism for “Give me money.”

“All of these freely available sources say that the Earth is billions of years old. They’re wrong. My $50 source says that it’s only 6,000 years old. Buy it today”

@SciManDan Man I'm going off on a tangent but watching people like Kent reminds me so much of this incident that happened in my childhood. We started going to this new church and I remember my mom pretty much forcing me to go up and let the "speaking in tongues" lady put her hand on my head while she prophesied. I was 10 and I couldn't contain my laughter. Picture this lady with her hand on my head going "shamana halala ratata" and me trying desperately not to burst out laughing. I felt horrible about it because the entire congregation looked like they were disappointed with me, and my mom looked embarrassed. I wouldn't say that's exactly when I stopped believing that kind of nonsense, but it definitely planted the seed.

I was slowly but happily beginning to forget this man existed.

I just get the impression he`s only trying to "debate" you in order to sell his DVD set

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="642">10:42</a> yeah Ken is an expert debater. He will say 15 crazy stupid things in 2 minutes and it'll take you 5 hours to carefully explain how all those 15 things are completely insane and contrary to reality but he will stop listening after 5 mins and say "see? Can't prove me wrong. Just look into the anus of a butterfly and don't tell me you don't feel divine providence."

I like how Kent disproved the age of the earth just by thinking about it for a minute. And the age of the sun just by thinking about it for a minute. And radiocarbon dating: debunked by thinking about it for a minute. And he corrected the idea of plate tectonics by thinking about it for a minute. Sure does save a lot of time on reading primary literature!

Funny, a creationist 'debunking' science when his only evidence for a God being taken from a book written thousands of years ago.

"I believe in God as a religion. Therefore, not believing in God is also a religion."

So, Kents arguments consist of snarky remarks about he doesn't understand physics, "nuh-uh" and "watch my video (buy my dvds)" All I see is a pigeon on a chess board.

"Who created time and space?" Begging the question, Kent. First you have to prove there was a "who", and you can't prove that.

Kent doesn't even understand how numbers work.

Funny. Kent accuses Dan of using his imagination. Kent has a personal relationship with an imaginary sky wizard.

"...you need billions of years to hide your religion in..." buddy, we're not the ones that believe in a magical grandpa that sneezed out the platypus as an example of 'intelligent design'. Also if God has a problem with people learning, then I can safely say that he ain't my God.

Hahahha he's immediately trying to sell his garbage. Grifters gonna grift!!

The arrogance is breathtaking. ‘My knowledge of a 3000 year old book of fairytales and belief in 1 sky pixie (out of the 5500 or so in recorded history) debunks everything in science.’ 😂😂😂

Theists stating that something can't come from nothing then arguing that their deity has always existed cracks me up

Scale, gravity, geologic time... things utterly beyond the grasp of flerfs and creationists.

Basically *ALL* of his arguments and "debunking" boils down to "nuh uh"

He projects all of his faults on to you: “it’s imagination”, “it’s all religion”, “you’re lying or you’re stupid”, everything wrong with his arguments he just pretends are your faults.

I'm fully convinced that SpongeBob is more intelligent than Kent Hovind.

Says "Get up to speed" Then proceeds to pull out a DVD... Lol

You can’t argue with stupid and you can’t argue with crazy! Kent Hovind is both!

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="406">6:46</a> "I'm more concerned about your soul than you are" Oh yeah? Between you and me which one of us is the convicted felon, eh?

Comedy that his comments end with: "you need to watch my video where I debunk that," that just happen to be available for $10, instead of just explaining his argument. 😂💩🤡

Good to see he's still putting the mental into fundamental

Kent is not even a convincing con man. :D

15 times annoying a creationist I'd consider a point of pride, you can put that on your CV

Honestly, I applaud you Dan for continually debunking trash. It gets old for me when the proof comes down to 'because god said'.

It’s scary how confident he is in his position of ignorance.

Kent Hovind's most true statement was, "I'm not prepared for that."

Shouldn't Hovind be in jail? Hint: the answer is yes.

"Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods and they are unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones." -- Marcus Aurelius

At this point I think he's just using you to sell his DVDs going by the number of "buy now" QR codes he's flashing up. And the fact he's selling DVDs of all things tells you exactly who he's selling to as well. A market that is dwindling by the day.

Whenever he tried to promote his products, you should have put that Spaceballs scene of Mel Brooks dressed as Yoghurt shouting 'Moichendizing!!'

I majored in geology and math back in the day. This creationist is fully cracked.

I love how Young Earth Creationists like to say that the "Big Bang" violates the first law of thermodynamics, but a being creating everything doesn't.

I feel like it's always a massive self report with these "god" types. If you need a supernatural "prison guard" to watch you 24\7 to be good then you are the problem.

I don't think Kent understands the hypocrisy of using science to disprove science.

The issue with creationists is their immense discomfort with unanswered questions. "Where did time start?" - "Where did matter come from?". I always fail to see how these questions are an argument for god. Jordan Peterson, a so-called intellectual, follows this same logic by saying the universe isn't "deterministic" at the quantum level - therefore god. The leaps are ridiculous. I'm an astronomer and astrophysicist and I have to say, if I didn't have questions to answer I'd be incredibly depressed. Yet these people are so intent on replacing every single answer with "god did it" to kill any dregs of curiosity leftover from their childhoods. Often, they simply don't understand the science so they utterly reject it.

"Millennia ago, they abandoned their belief in the supernatural. Now you are asking me to sabotage that achievement, to send them back into the dark ages of superstition and ignorance and fear? NO!" -- Patrick Stewart as Captain. Jean-Luc Picard - Star Trek The Next Generation

"How do I know the Earth is not billions of years old? Because I heard myself say so in a video on this disc."

It's difficult or maybe impossible to have a productive discussion or argument with someone who, when cornered, can just say "magic, poof, God can do anything, therefore, I'm correct and you're wrong".

With the closed captions turned on, Kent said, "You're gonna die and face God someday". Before I turned them on I heard, "You're gonna die face down someday".

Kent's debates are like playing chess against a pigeon. The pigeon will just knock all the pieces over and strut like it just won.

What blows my mind is that Ken could actually accept everything Science has to show him and it has ZERO effect on his faith.

H: Where did all the gold platinum and other elements come from? Me: (quietly to my self) Stars.. ScimanDan: (in perfect sync) Stars... lol funny little moment

The Christians who think that being mean to others is the right thing to do, then they need to go re-read what Jesus said about how to treat others.

Hi Dan great channel mate. I saw a really disturbing video of Kent. It’s the one where he quite gleefully discribes beating his son in his car outside the dentist because his son was scared and moving before a procedure in the dentist chair. His smirk and proundness as he recalled this incident speaks volumes of the person this nutjob is.

Nobody can talk rubbish as quickly as old Kent.

"Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour" Remember that when you meet your creator, Kent! The dishonesty of this man is mind boggling.

I'm interested in the debate between you 2 for anthropological reasons. I find his dome earth perception and fear of stars falling from the sky fascinating.

Kent Hovind actually believes that trigonometry can't be used to determine the distance between stars.

The true purpose of his shtick is there for us all to see while he's talking, complete with convenient QR code for quick shopping.

he thinks the earth rotational change must be constant, he thinks the rate of the moon moving away must be constant (they arent but even a constant value would disprove him, if he could do the math) yet thinks nuclear decay rates change all the time

Kent is right about all of it!! I used to believe in ‘science’ but my eyes got opened one fateful day and I haven’t looked back! I still think fondly of that day the horse kicked me in the head.

The worst suffering we could ever inflict against Kent would be to ignore him and isolate him from followers.

"You're wrong watch my video" must be the new "You're wrong because my book says you are wrong"

Fingers crossed that this turns into a recursive debate where every time it becomes more layered and the audio becomes even worse

Insults are not very Christian. People insult because they don't have an intelligent argument.

When I die, if I end up in front of Kent’s God, I’m going to judge the hell out him before he judges me. I’d rather go to hell that submit to that absolute monster.

Trying to debate Kent Hovind is the equivalent of trying to debate a child in kindergarten. Confidently incorrect about everything. His shilling for cash can't be wrong...

LMAO Ken said and i "quote" It's imagination Dan, you're making that up" Erm, Then what the Funk is the "Bible"? Factual or made up horseshit?.......ahahahahaha

Hey, it's easy to date meteorites. You just gotta buy em flowers.

Kent's understanding of science seems limited to that of an average lower high school student. His ego, though, is outstanding....a rival to Nathan Oakley.

Jesus christ, Kent is mad that he's wasted his entire life on this bullshit, and so he's lashing out.

😂 you two guys make great sparring partners. It's great to listen to this "back and forth". Your opposing arguments gets both sides considering the other because you MUST consider what the other is believing so that you can make your rebuttal. Such a pity the younger generations don't get to enjoy debating like this. Even though the opposing view is, to most,..... fantastical, or in some cases farcical, or facts vs beliefs.... or should that be Theory vs belief? (OK I'm just egging things on at this point😂). It's so very refreshing to listen to a good old fashioned "proper" debate, regardless of how daft I might think a certain "viewpoint" is. Love your work and sharing of great knowledge Sciman, big cheer from Tyrone, N. Ireland. Keep on sparring neighbour. 👍

Why try to debate him ? Every time he pull up the Skygoblin as a proof to anything. "Who created the world? The Skygoblin", "Why is my pudding cold ? The Skygoblin"

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="232">3:52</a> - the only way to debunk radiometric dating is to invent entirely new physics that speeds up radioactive decay, new physics that is wholly inconsistent with the rest of nuclear physics and which has never been observed. That isn't debunking, that's wishful thinking. Lying or stupid anyone?

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="433">7:13</a> Kent: "Matter cannot be created or destroyed" Antimatter: "Hold my beer"

Kents arguments are "You're wrong" or "You're stupid" or "Buy My DVD". I can say Kent is actually three ducks in a Hawaiian shirt pretending to be a person, i just debunked the idea Kent is a person. If you don't believe me watch video 36 in my series "crap I made up".

Oh dear, Kent is still at it. Same old nonsense, same godawful shirts.

On wikipedia, they listed him as a "tax protester", that explains a lot. Dan can forgive him, but the IRS can't

Kent's been debunked nine ways from Sunday as some used to say, but he will never admit it unless he finds a better grift.

Regarding the Big Bang, my understanding is: 1. The BBT doesn't explain what happened in the first 10^-40th of a second (something like that). 2. The BBT explains everything _after_ 10^-40 seconds very, very well (modulo the Crisis in Cosmology). 3. The BBT also doesn't try to explain what actually caused the Big Bang. It only explains what happened from shortly afterwards. 4. Cosmologists generally don't agree on what caused the Big Bang. It could be cosmic sheets, it could be quantum fluctuations, it could be the Flying Spaghetti Monster. 5. Best we understand, there was no time or space before the Big Bang. Time doesn't extend infinitely into the past, it only extends 13.7 billion years. There was no before that, something which is really hard to wrap one's head around. It completely doesn't match our everyday intuition.

I remember as a kid someone showed me a Kent video proving an atheist wrong and I thought it was such a great video and he made an awesome point. I'm not a religious person but I am spiritual and believe in a higher power and believe that we get back what we put out. You can be a drug addict alcoholic and if you are still doing good things towards others then you will still get good things coming to you but then if you're a sober person but you are stealing and doing wrong you will get bad karma back. It all comes down to how good you treat others and do right even if your "sinning" by consuming drugs or alcohol. It all boils down to what you put out to the universe and how you think. The again you can be a drug addict who steal and cheats and that's what you'll receive. And so on and so forth. With that being said I also believe in science. I don't know where we came from and I don't know if we evolved from apes but I have a feeling there is other life out there and we possibly came from another planet and we possibly were genetically modified to be the humans we are today. I'm not a Bible scholar or Bible thumper either but I do think that Christianity is a great blue print for how to live your life. That doesn't include the lies we were told that we can't get tattoos or can't be gay or we should fear God. I'm talking about be a good person, help people, love your neighbors. Get married , have a family, don't cheat, etc. just my opinion but I still love science and Mr. Dinosaur is definitely a fraud 😂

Earth rocks: >4 billion years old Moon rocks: >4 billion years old Mars rocks: >4 billion years old Asteroid rocks: >4 billion years old Kent Hovind: THIS IS NOT TRUE! PLEASE, LISTEN TO ME! THERE'S THIS DUDE IN THE SKY AND HE CREATED EVERYTHING SIX THOUSAND YEARS AGO WITH HIS MAGIC POWERS!

“Bachelor of religious education”.. so he refers to himself as a doctor because he studied how to say “god did it” to any question he doesn’t understand.. got it 🙄
