Refuting creationist Kent Hovind

This series of videos created by ExtantDodo dissect the words of the unfortunately famous Kent Hovind. If you have ever watched or heard Kent Hovind and walked away feeling any less than stupefied, then you are probably in desperate need to watch these videos so you can see just how much of a fraud, liar and imbecile that Kent Hovind is.

Kent Hovind on Evolution

Kent Hovind on the 1st Law of Thermodynamics

Kent Hovind on Conservation of Angular Momentum
