Favorite creationist
Who is your favorite creationist?
For me sofar its Kent Hovind.Between ignorance,assorted logical fallacies,and his lame ass jokes,and using arguments even answers in genesis says to steer clear of,I find him even more entertaining than Ray and Kirk.

Yes. In terms of pure stupidity and entertainment, Ken Hovind is the winner. I have corresponded with some prominent creationists who are actually, ahem, "scientists" like Behe, Ross and Thaxton, and they are all quite unintelligent and dishonest, but most of them do not actually suffer from mental illness apart from conditioned stupidity. Hovind, on the other hand, has brain damage...
"Physical reality” isn’t some arbitrary demarcation. It is defined in terms of what we can systematically investigate, directly or not, by means of our senses. It is preposterous to assert that the process of systematic scientific reasoning arbitrarily excludes “non-physical explanations” because the very notion of “non-physical explanation” is contradictory.

I know Hovind only through reputation (all bad).
For sheer entertainment value, you can't go wrong with that stupid banana idea. Every time I eat a banana I think about it and laugh...then think of the stupid peanut butter video, which was even worse.
Who did the peanut butter video...you know, the one where you're supposed to find new life forms in your sandwich ingredients?
So I guess I have to go for the crocoduck team and their nightmare bananas.

One of my neigbors. I was at her house one time when she told me the wonderful news that somewhere in California, "they" discovered a tree that was over 6000 years old still alive, and so it was not a seeded tree, it was a created tree. She was ecstatic.

Kent Hovind deconverted my brother, plus he's just so damned funny. So, Hovind.
Most Unintelligent = Kent Hovind
Most Amusing = Ray Comfort
Most Pathetic = Kirk Cameron
Most Troublesome (as of right now) = Ken Ham
My favorite = Dr. Kenny Barfield - A local creationist who taught me, along with the rest of my class in high school (Christian school), the tricks of the trade. We dedicated a semester of our junior year to proving God's existence. If I had to attribute my deconversion to any one person, it would be him. Barfield has written several books, too. None of which I have read (I think I got the bulk of it from the few hundred (literally) handouts I received in his class, of which I still have nearly every one).
Flying Spaghetti Monster -- Great Almighty God? Or GREATEST Almighty God?
All of them are asshats.

Harun Yahya is pretty amusing. But I'd have to go with Kent Hovind too.
