00:00:03.060 --> 00:00:05.200
Have you ever thought about it?

00:00:05.200 --> 00:00:07.850
I mean really, what is the purpose to life?

00:00:07.850 --> 00:00:10.389
Why are we here? Where did we come from?

00:00:10.389 --> 00:00:14.740
For that matter, where are we going to go
when this life is over?

00:00:14.740 --> 00:00:17.320
This seminar talks about the age of the earth.

00:00:17.320 --> 00:00:21.970
Dr. Hovind gives solid evidence to show that
this earth is not billions of years old.

00:00:21.970 --> 00:00:25.140
In fact, the evidence points towards a literal
six-day creation.

00:00:25.140 --> 00:00:27.539
Just like we’re told about in Genesis chapter
one.

00:00:27.539 --> 00:00:31.529
Hi, my name is Eric, and we hope you enjoy
this incredibly powerful seminar.

00:00:31.529 --> 00:00:36.860
It is presented by Dr. Hovind. It’s called
“The Age of the Earth.”

00:00:36.860 --> 00:00:43.640
Well, it is an honor to be here tonight in
Tennessee. My name is Kent Hovind.

00:00:43.640 --> 00:00:48.140
I taught high school science for 15 years,
and now for 16 years I have been an evangelist

00:00:48.140 --> 00:00:51.760
doing seminars on creation, evolution, and
dinosaurs.

00:00:51.760 --> 00:00:56.940
And I tell people right up front that I believe
the Bible is the infallible, inspired, inerrant

00:00:56.940 --> 00:00:58.070
Word of the Living God.

00:00:58.070 --> 00:01:03.440
I believe it from cover to cover. I even believe
the cover on mine; it says: Kent Hovind.

00:01:03.440 --> 00:01:07.530
And for those who don’t know, the Bible is
your Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth.

00:01:07.530 --> 00:01:10.259
You really ought to read the book because
you are going to be gone for an awfully long

00:01:10.259 --> 00:01:10.880
time.

00:01:10.880 --> 00:01:15.670
And when you leave here, there is no coming
back, so make sure you are going to the right

00:01:15.670 --> 00:01:16.030
spot.

00:01:16.030 --> 00:01:21.409
Now, one of my jobs as a Christian is “to
be ready always to give an answer to every

00:01:21.409 --> 00:01:23.780
man that asketh a reason of the hope that
is in us.”

00:01:23.780 --> 00:01:27.170
I think in the last few hundred years the
Christians have not done a good job of answering

00:01:27.170 --> 00:01:29.219
this evolution theory.

00:01:29.219 --> 00:01:31.950
And we’ve tolerated this philosophy of evolution
which is actually a religion.

00:01:31.950 --> 00:01:35.840
We have allowed this religion to take over
our school system and our legal system.

00:01:35.840 --> 00:01:41.119
Our whole thinking process now is based on
a philosophy which has zero scientific evidence.

00:01:41.119 --> 00:01:41.950
None!

00:01:41.950 --> 00:01:47.289
We’ve been offering $250,000 for anybody with
any real scientific evidence for evolution.

00:01:47.289 --> 00:01:49.209
That offer has been out there for 12 years
now.

00:01:49.209 --> 00:01:51.259
There is no real scientific evidence for it
whatsoever.

00:01:51.259 --> 00:01:53.579
People believe in it, I understand; but that
doesn’t make it science.

00:01:53.579 --> 00:01:56.149
Now, there are three things I try to accomplish
in my seminar.

00:01:56.149 --> 00:01:58.569
Number one, I want to strengthen your faith
in the Word of God.

00:01:58.569 --> 00:02:01.350
Number two, if you are not saved I want to
try to get you converted.

00:02:01.350 --> 00:02:06.100
I’ll tell you right up front, I am after you.
I am not sneaking up on you - I am after you!

00:02:06.100 --> 00:02:06.810
All right?

00:02:06.810 --> 00:02:09.068
Number three, if you are saved and you are
not doing much for the Lord,

00:02:09.068 --> 00:02:13.010
... then I am going to try to make you uncomfortable.
All right?

00:02:13.010 --> 00:02:14.810
You know where we are going now.

00:02:14.810 --> 00:02:21.580
OK, this is not my wife. That’s just a picture
of her.

00:02:21.580 --> 00:02:25.200
Last summer was our 31st anniversary and we
sat down to figure out how much money we have

00:02:25.200 --> 00:02:28.299
spent since we got married.

00:02:28.299 --> 00:02:31.060
We have spent all of it.

00:02:31.060 --> 00:02:34.709
We live in Pensacola, Florida - or what’s
left of it.

00:02:34.709 --> 00:02:36.700
Hurricane Ivan about blew it off the map.

00:02:36.700 --> 00:02:38.519
But we are having a good time rebuilding down
there.

00:02:38.519 --> 00:02:43.150
I have three children, one of each. And I
got them all married off and the dog died,

00:02:43.150 --> 00:02:44.370
so I made it. Praise God.

00:02:44.370 --> 00:02:46.909
I am home free; it is wonderful.

00:02:46.909 --> 00:02:49.500
And for those who don’t know, we now have
the whole family working in the ministry,

00:02:49.500 --> 00:02:51.310
and I have four grandkids so far.

00:02:51.310 --> 00:02:54.560
And for those that don’t understand this,
grandkids are God’s reward for not killing

00:02:54.560 --> 00:02:57.189
your own kids when you thought about it.

00:02:57.189 --> 00:03:00.890
How many have already figured that out? That’s
great, isn’t it?

00:03:00.890 --> 00:03:04.049
All of them live right around me and work
in our ministry; they all want to serve God

00:03:04.049 --> 00:03:04.709
with their lives.

00:03:04.709 --> 00:03:06.200
That is worth something to somebody.

00:03:06.200 --> 00:03:10.780
We have about 40 people in our ministry, and
we want to do things that will help strengthen

00:03:10.780 --> 00:03:12.299
your faith in God’s Word.

00:03:12.299 --> 00:03:13.799
We want to change people’s worldview.

00:03:13.799 --> 00:03:19.030
There are two ways to look at this world.
That’s called your worldview. How do you view

00:03:19.030 --> 00:03:20.159
this world?

00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:22.829
Some people look at the world one way, and
some look at it another way. We’ll talk about

00:03:22.829 --> 00:03:23.340
that in a minute.

00:03:23.340 --> 00:03:27.030
But the way you view the world determines
how you answer the four great questions of

00:03:27.030 --> 00:03:27.909
life.

00:03:27.909 --> 00:03:31.579
There are four fundamental questions that
every single religion on planet earth tries

00:03:31.579 --> 00:03:32.060
to answer.

00:03:32.060 --> 00:03:37.810
Who am I? Where did I come from? Why am I
here? And where am I going when I die?

00:03:37.810 --> 00:03:41.989
The way you answer those questions is totally
determined by your worldview.

00:03:41.989 --> 00:03:45.640
Some people look at the world and say, “You
know, it’s amazing - a big bang made this

00:03:45.640 --> 00:03:49.840
from nothing.” That’s the humanist worldview,
based on the evolution theory.

00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:53.549
Other people look at the world and say, “You
know, there is an incredible design - there

00:03:53.549 --> 00:03:59.230
must be a Designer!” That’s the creationist
worldview, based on creation.

00:03:59.230 --> 00:04:05.650
And those two worldviews are at war with each
other. Somebody is wrong, and I enjoy showing

00:04:05.650 --> 00:04:06.890
them who they are.

00:04:06.890 --> 00:04:08.359
I’ve done a lot of debates, over 90.

00:04:08.359 --> 00:04:11.700
92 debates now I’ve done at the universities;
one here at U.T. Knoxville against Dr. Pigliuchi.

00:04:11.700 --> 00:04:15.769
I’ve debated him twice; I will be glad to
do it again. I don’t think he will, but I

00:04:15.769 --> 00:04:16.339
would be honored.

00:04:16.339 --> 00:04:20.130
The guys I debate are a lot smarter that I
am, but I slaughter them because I am right

00:04:20.130 --> 00:04:23.400
and they are wrong. It’s real simple.

00:04:23.400 --> 00:04:27.900
But if the evolution theory is true, how would
you answer the four great questions of life?

00:04:27.900 --> 00:04:30.960
Who am I, and what am I worth?

00:04:30.960 --> 00:04:34.750
Well, if evolution is true, you are nothing
important.

00:04:34.750 --> 00:04:40.169
You are just a piece of protoplasm that washed
up on the beach; you are not worth a thing.

00:04:40.169 --> 00:04:42.669
Actually you are part of the problem. You
see, because you are one of the polluters

00:04:42.669 --> 00:04:46.740
of the environment, and the more of you we
can get rid of, the better.

00:04:46.740 --> 00:04:50.840
See, that’s normal thinking if evolution is
true.

00:04:50.840 --> 00:04:52.190
Where did I come from?

00:04:52.190 --> 00:04:58.479
Well, if evolution is true, you came from
a cosmic burp about 20 billion years ago.

00:04:58.479 --> 00:05:01.090
Why am I here? What’s the purpose of life?

00:05:01.090 --> 00:05:05.220
Well, if evolution is true, there is no purpose
to life, so you might as well have fun. If

00:05:05.220 --> 00:05:06.979
it feels good, do it.

00:05:06.979 --> 00:05:09.759
Where am I going when I die?

00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:13.069
Well, if evolution is true, you are going
to the grave and you are going to get recycled

00:05:13.069 --> 00:05:15.240
into a worm, or a plant.

00:05:15.240 --> 00:05:20.020
But see, the Bible says: “In the beginning
God created the heaven and the earth.”

00:05:20.020 --> 00:05:24.509
Now if that’s true, that puts a whole different
set of answers to those questions.

00:05:24.509 --> 00:05:27.639
That means we had better try to figure out
who God is and find out what He wants and

00:05:27.639 --> 00:05:33.009
do what He says. Because He created this place,
which means He owns it, He makes the rules.

00:05:33.009 --> 00:05:37.539
We had better find out what He wants. And
if you are not obeying His rules, you may

00:05:37.539 --> 00:05:38.919
be in trouble one of these days.

00:05:38.919 --> 00:05:41.800
We’ll get into more about that later.

00:05:41.800 --> 00:05:45.490
The devil doesn’t like this idea that God
created the earth. The devil came to Eve in

00:05:45.490 --> 00:05:46.479
the Garden of Eden.

00:05:46.479 --> 00:05:52.789
The first thing he said to the woman was,
Eve, hath God said...? “Yea, hath God said?”

00:05:52.789 --> 00:05:58.389
He is trying to raise doubts about God’s Word.

00:05:58.389 --> 00:06:00.539
Satan always tries to raise doubts about God’s
Word.

00:06:00.539 --> 00:06:07.539
That is one of the reasons that we’ve got
all this confusion on different Bible versions.

00:06:07.870 --> 00:06:09.319
We cover more on that in video #7.

00:06:09.319 --> 00:06:13.410
The second thing he said to the woman was,
“Ye shall not surely die.”

00:06:13.410 --> 00:06:16.080
He is calling God a liar, basically.

00:06:16.080 --> 00:06:18.830
The third thing he said to Eve is what I want
to talk to you about tonight.

00:06:18.830 --> 00:06:25.430
He said, Eve, if you eat off of that tree,
ye shall be as gods.

00:06:25.430 --> 00:06:29.389
And right there is where the whole idea of
evolution got started.

00:06:29.389 --> 00:06:32.930
It didn’t start with Charlie Darwin; it started
with Satan in the Garden of Eden.

00:06:32.930 --> 00:06:35.310
He wants you to think you can become a god.

00:06:35.310 --> 00:06:40.129
Yes, boys and girls, we started like an amoeba,
and we are evolving. We are getting bigger

00:06:40.129 --> 00:06:42.000
and better and stronger and smarter...

00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:45.860
...and some day we are going to sail around
the universe and discover new life-forms,

00:06:45.860 --> 00:06:48.430
like “Star Trek.”

00:06:48.430 --> 00:06:50.979
People ask me all the time, they say, “Hovind,
do you think there is intelligent life on

00:06:50.979 --> 00:06:51.729
other planets?”

00:06:51.729 --> 00:06:57.729
I say, “No, I taught high school 15 years;
there is not much intelligent life on this

00:06:57.729 --> 00:07:02.139
planet!” I didn’t get to see a whole lot of
it.

00:07:02.139 --> 00:07:06.000
Satan’s a liar. He said that you can be like
God. I tell you what, the Mormon Church has

00:07:06.000 --> 00:07:06.909
swallowed that.

00:07:06.909 --> 00:07:09.490
They teach their people that if you are a
good Mormon, when you go to heaven you get

00:07:09.490 --> 00:07:13.800
to become god. And if you’re a good Mormon
wife, when you go to heaven you get to be

00:07:13.800 --> 00:07:16.389
eternally pregnant, producing spirit babies.

00:07:16.389 --> 00:07:21.419
My wife doesn’t want to go. She said, “That’s
not heaven, honey.”

00:07:21.419 --> 00:07:24.919
But there are some great books to reach Mormons
and a good Web site: www.utlm.org.

00:07:24.919 --> 00:07:29.210
If you want to reach Mormons, you ought to
study that one.

00:07:29.210 --> 00:07:32.750
I was surprised to find out a couple of years
ago some of the major Catholic theologians

00:07:32.750 --> 00:07:35.909
of the past have taught that man can become
god.

00:07:35.909 --> 00:07:38.099
It is still in their catechism right now.

00:07:38.099 --> 00:07:41.050
Now most Catholics don’t believe that, and
they don’t even realize some of their leaders

00:07:41.050 --> 00:07:42.750
have taught that.

00:07:42.750 --> 00:07:48.150
But even Kenneth Copeland said, “Adam, in
the Garden of Eden, was god manifest in the

00:07:48.150 --> 00:07:48.400
flesh.”

00:07:48.389 --> 00:07:51.680
He said, “You don’t have a god in you; you
are one.”

00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:54.639
I am sorry, Kenneth, you are crazy about that,
OK?

00:07:54.639 --> 00:07:58.560
Kenneth Hagan said, “The believers are called
Christ; that’s who we are, we are Christ.”

00:07:58.560 --> 00:08:03.080
No, you are crazy. The job is not available,
and you couldn’t do it if you had it.

00:08:03.080 --> 00:08:08.129
You are not God, all right? Nor are you Christ.
Walk on water sometime; I want to see that.

00:08:08.129 --> 00:08:10.180
Lucifer is the one who wants to be God.

00:08:10.180 --> 00:08:14.680
Lucifer said, “I will ascend into heaven,
I will exalt my throne above the stars of

00:08:14.680 --> 00:08:14.970
God: ...”

00:08:14.970 --> 00:08:18.310
“I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation,
in the sides of the north, ...”

00:08:18.310 --> 00:08:23.159
“...I will ascend above the heights of the
clouds: I will be like the most High.”

00:08:23.159 --> 00:08:28.169
See, Satan wants to be God. But the job is
not available, so he is all upset about that.

00:08:28.169 --> 00:08:35.169
Since he can’t be God, he lied to Eve and
told her she could be like God.

00:08:36.860 --> 00:08:40.679
Satan hates us, though, because we are made
in God’s image.

00:08:40.679 --> 00:08:44.300
And boy, Eve fell for that hook, line, and
sinker. “Wow, I get to be God!”

00:08:44.300 --> 00:08:49.000
Hitler said, “If you tell a lie long enough
and loud enough and often enough, the people

00:08:49.000 --> 00:08:54.180
will believe it.” He said they are more likely
to believe a big lie than a small one.

00:08:54.180 --> 00:08:57.390
If you want to get somebody to believe a lie,
you have to do it like my two big brothers

00:08:57.390 --> 00:08:58.200
did to me.

00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:04.060
I have two older brothers; they have always
been older than I am. They still are today.

00:09:04.060 --> 00:09:08.529
When I was about six years old, I was raised
in Peoria, Illinois.

00:09:08.529 --> 00:09:11.690
By the way, I know I am in Tennessee, but
are there any more Yankees in the crowd? Any

00:09:11.690 --> 00:09:12.890
Yankees out there?

00:09:12.890 --> 00:09:17.610
Five, six, seven, OK. And how many Southerners
do we have?

00:09:17.610 --> 00:09:18.660
Oh!

00:09:18.660 --> 00:09:25.410
Well, just remember who won, if you would.
I know, ‘it ain’t over yet, right?’

00:09:25.410 --> 00:09:27.589
But I was raised in East Peoria, Illinois,
in the North.

00:09:27.589 --> 00:09:30.380
But I did move to Florida, as soon as I got
smart enough to figure out that the South

00:09:30.380 --> 00:09:31.430
is going to rise again.

00:09:31.430 --> 00:09:36.470
But when I was about six years old, I came
running in for breakfast one morning.

00:09:36.470 --> 00:09:40.860
I was the first one there for breakfast; so
I got the last banana out of the bowl to put

00:09:40.860 --> 00:09:42.010
on my cereal.

00:09:42.010 --> 00:09:45.480
Well, a few minutes later my two big brothers
came in.

00:09:45.480 --> 00:09:52.000
They said, “Hey, Kent, is that the last banana?”
I said, “Yep, and I got it.”

00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:55.430
How many of you have an older brother or sister?

00:09:55.430 --> 00:09:59.300
You know that wonderful feeling you get when
you finally pull one over on them?

00:09:59.300 --> 00:10:01.800
Boy, that morning I had them, and I knew it.

00:10:01.800 --> 00:10:06.120
They wanted my banana. But big brothers do
not beg little brothers for anything.

00:10:06.120 --> 00:10:10.470
They either beat them up and take it away
by brute force, or they lie to them and trick

00:10:10.470 --> 00:10:11.639
them out of it somehow.

00:10:11.639 --> 00:10:14.820
So my brothers said, “Hey, Kent, do you know
how bananas are made?”

00:10:14.820 --> 00:10:16.769
I said, “No.”

00:10:16.769 --> 00:10:22.000
I was only six years old, and it’s been proven
in laboratory tests that the brain doesn’t

00:10:22.000 --> 00:10:25.540
even start to grow until kids are 18 to 20.

00:10:25.540 --> 00:10:30.760
How many parents can verify that from raising
kids? I said “No, how are bananas made?”

00:10:30.760 --> 00:10:33.510
And they said, “Well, down in the South America,
they have these spiders that live up in the

00:10:33.510 --> 00:10:38.380
trees, and when they die all their legs fold
up, and mold begins to grow on the dead spider

00:10:38.380 --> 00:10:39.350
legs.

00:10:39.350 --> 00:10:41.850
And a banana is really nothing but moldy spider
legs.”

00:10:41.850 --> 00:10:47.230
I said, “You guys are lying to me. You just
want this banana because you know it’s the

00:10:47.230 --> 00:10:48.019
last one.”

00:10:48.019 --> 00:10:49.870
They said, “No brother, we are not lying.

00:10:49.870 --> 00:10:53.040
You cut that thing in half and look in the
middle; you can still see the black spots

00:10:53.040 --> 00:10:59.260
where his legs were.”

00:10:59.260 --> 00:11:03.860
I did not eat bananas for nearly three years
after that.

00:11:03.860 --> 00:11:07.779
They lied to me. Have you ever been lied to
before?

00:11:07.779 --> 00:11:10.750
I would not have believed the lie if it hadn’t
been for those black spots.

00:11:10.750 --> 00:11:15.370
See, if you want to get somebody to believe
a lie, you have to mix it with some truth.

00:11:15.370 --> 00:11:19.029
That’s a technique they have used for years
to kill rats. You don’t give the rat a bowl

00:11:19.029 --> 00:11:23.810
of poison. You give the rat a bowl of good
food with a little poison mixed in.

00:11:23.810 --> 00:11:26.769
They are mixing two things together that really
do not belong together.

00:11:26.769 --> 00:11:32.889
See, rat poison is 99.995% good food. That’s
how you trick them.

00:11:32.889 --> 00:11:36.100
They’ve done the same thing for years to sell
Marlboro cigarettes.

00:11:36.100 --> 00:11:39.170
They mix them in with cowboys.

00:11:39.170 --> 00:11:42.170
You can watch any Marlboro commercial; there
is something about a cowboy in there.

00:11:42.170 --> 00:11:44.889
Have you stopped and thought about that?

00:11:44.889 --> 00:11:50.290
What is the connection between smoking Marlboro
and cowboys? Do all cowboys smoke Marlboro?

00:11:50.290 --> 00:11:54.540
No. Do you have to smoke to be a cowboy? No.

00:11:54.540 --> 00:11:59.829
If you start smoking Marlboro, do you become
a cowboy automatically? No.

00:11:59.829 --> 00:12:02.420
You may smell like a horse, but you are not
a cowboy. OK?

00:12:02.420 --> 00:12:06.880
Actually it has been proven in laboratory
tests that nobody in the world smokes. Nobody

00:12:06.880 --> 00:12:07.130
smokes!

00:12:07.070 --> 00:12:11.990
Only the cigarette smokes; the person is the
“sucker.” That’s all. I think they ought to

00:12:11.990 --> 00:12:15.230
put the real names on those things. We ought
to have some truth in advertising.

00:12:15.230 --> 00:12:18.639
They should really be calling them: Cancerettes,
Breath Rotters, By-pass, Malignant, Phlegm

00:12:18.639 --> 00:12:20.339
Balls, and Money Suckers.

00:12:20.339 --> 00:12:22.930
They do the same thing with beer.

00:12:22.930 --> 00:12:28.820
They try to associate beer with sports. What
does beer have to do with sports?

00:12:28.820 --> 00:12:33.130
They get some big football player holding
his can of Bud Dumber, or Bud Stupid.

00:12:33.130 --> 00:12:37.040
They call it “Budweiser”; it doesn’t make
them any wiser though, that’s for sure.

00:12:37.040 --> 00:12:40.190
He’s got some Bud Dumber, or Miller Low Life,
or Dead Dog, whatever it is.

00:12:40.190 --> 00:12:44.040
He says, man, you drink this stuff, and you
will be a football player. Yeah, right!

00:12:44.040 --> 00:12:47.100
The Bible says if you drink that stuff, you
will wreck your life.

00:12:47.100 --> 00:12:50.279
“Who hath woe? Who hath wounds without cause?

00:12:50.279 --> 00:12:54.820
They that tarry long at the wine.” The Bible
says, don’t even look at it when it gets fermented.

00:12:54.820 --> 00:13:00.779
Habakkuk says, “Woe unto him that giveth his
neighbor drink.” There is a lot in the Bible

00:13:00.779 --> 00:13:02.500
about not even touching that stuff.

00:13:02.500 --> 00:13:04.269
One kid said to me one time, “What’s the matter,
Hovind, don’t you like beer?”

00:13:04.269 --> 00:13:08.980
I said, “I don’t know. I have never tasted
it. I am 52 years old, and I’ve never had

00:13:08.980 --> 00:13:13.959
a drop in my life!” (Well, I’ve had Nyquil
a couple of times.)

00:13:13.959 --> 00:13:15.880
He said, “How do you know that you won’t like
it, if you don’t try it?”

00:13:15.880 --> 00:13:19.149
I said, “Now son, that’s a brilliant way to
live your life.”

00:13:19.149 --> 00:13:22.949
Let me ask you a question, son. Have you ever
laid your head under a semi truck?

00:13:22.949 --> 00:13:27.740
Well, how do you know you won’t like it if
you don’t try it?

00:13:27.740 --> 00:13:31.399
You don’t have to try everything to figure
out if it’s good or bad.

00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:35.079
There are other ways to learn - like watching
somebody else do it.

00:13:35.079 --> 00:13:37.350
Wow, don’t do that; that will hurt.

00:13:37.350 --> 00:13:43.660
Like the redneck’s famous last words: “Hey
you all, watch this!”

00:13:43.660 --> 00:13:46.310
I like science, folks; I collect science books.

00:13:46.310 --> 00:13:49.720
There is a lot of good science in these books,
but there is some poison mixed with it.

00:13:49.720 --> 00:13:56.720
It’s kind of like the rat poison. It’s not
good food 
I am against, it’s the poison!

00:14:11.829 --> 00:14:18.829
I need a boy and 
a girl who would like to learn the scientific
way to shoot a rubber band.

00:14:44.250 --> 00:14:48.139
Who would like to learn? OK, that boy right
there, come up here. And one girl, let’s get

00:14:48.139 --> 00:14:50.910
one girl, come on.

00:14:50.910 --> 00:14:52.720
Way back there. OK, hurry up, run!

00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:56.519
All right, the scientific way to shoot a rubber
band.

00:14:56.519 --> 00:15:01.899
What’s your name sir?... Josh, How old are
you Josh?... I was ten for a whole year one

00:15:01.899 --> 00:15:03.699
time. That’s amazing.

00:15:03.699 --> 00:15:07.100
I was supposed to be eleven but I was sick
for three years when I was two and a half.

00:15:07.100 --> 00:15:12.579
And how old are you going to be when you are
almost twelve? “Eleven.”

00:15:12.579 --> 00:15:14.839
And how much does your mom pay you to be good?

00:15:14.839 --> 00:15:21.310
So you are good for nothing, and you are ten.
Pick a rubber band out of here, Josh.

00:15:21.310 --> 00:15:22.459
OK, the brown one. And what’s your name, ma’am?
“Laura.”

00:15:22.459 --> 00:15:25.850
Laura? Pick a rubber band out of there, Laura.

00:15:25.850 --> 00:15:27.870
You want the pink one of course; a girl one.
OK.

00:15:27.870 --> 00:15:29.790
Here’s what I want you to do, Josh and Laura.

00:15:29.790 --> 00:15:34.910
We are going to stand here and shoot a rubber
band down the center aisle. Go ahead.

00:15:34.910 --> 00:15:36.779
That one won’t work; that’s a double one.
Here, let me try it.

00:15:36.779 --> 00:15:39.540
Try an orange one, here. That’s two tied together;
I didn’t see that.

00:15:39.540 --> 00:15:45.870
OK, Josh, shoot the rubber band down the center
isle. Past the table; not too far.

00:15:45.870 --> 00:15:51.839
Laura, give it a try; come on. Oh, three
rows back.

00:15:51.839 --> 00:15:54.699
Now, watch carefully; I’m going to get down
to the same size as you guys, and I am going

00:15:54.699 --> 00:15:56.610
to show the scientific way to shoot a rubber
band.

00:15:56.610 --> 00:16:00.730
Are you ready for this? Now, I want you to
notice that my fingers do not leave my hand

00:16:00.730 --> 00:16:04.370
at any time.

00:16:04.370 --> 00:16:06.639
You believe that? OK now, pay attention.

00:16:06.639 --> 00:16:13.639
See the guy sitting way in the back of the
church? Ah, about three fourths of the way

00:16:14.540 --> 00:16:15.009
there.

00:16:15.009 --> 00:16:20.459
Probably, right about now you are thinking
of a question that has five words in it.

00:16:20.459 --> 00:16:24.230
What question are you thinking of? How do
you do that?

00:16:24.230 --> 00:16:26.190
See, I told you it had five words in it, right?

00:16:26.190 --> 00:16:30.380
Now, before I show you how to do this, I want
to explain something.

00:16:30.380 --> 00:16:36.360
Some kids should not learn how to do some
things, because they become what’s known as

00:16:36.360 --> 00:16:39.170
a menace to society.

00:16:39.170 --> 00:16:42.880
Who’s responsible for this kid right here?
Where’s your mom & dad? Is he safe with this

00:16:42.880 --> 00:16:47.740
information? Ha, ha. Mom says no!

00:16:47.740 --> 00:16:51.410
And who’s responsible for this one here, where
is... Nobody?

00:16:51.410 --> 00:16:56.430
Oh, back there. Did your husband come? No.

00:16:56.430 --> 00:17:01.610
OK now, pay attention- the scientific way
to shoot a rubber band.

00:17:01.610 --> 00:17:06.089
There are two sides to a rubber band. Are
you with me so far?

00:17:06.089 --> 00:17:10.890
One side represents your flesh, that’s your
body. And the other side represents your spirit.

00:17:10.890 --> 00:17:15.220
Now your spirit has to live in your flesh,
or else you are dead.

00:17:15.220 --> 00:17:19.760
If your spirit ever leaves your flesh, you’ve
got a real problem on your hands! (Actually

00:17:19.760 --> 00:17:21.349
the neighbors do.)

00:17:21.349 --> 00:17:24.420
But what most people do wrong in rubber band
shooting, and in real life, is they put the

00:17:24.420 --> 00:17:27.040
same emphasis on the flesh and the spirit.

00:17:27.040 --> 00:17:32.780
See, if you pull both sides the same and let
it fly, if you could watch it in slow motion,

00:17:32.780 --> 00:17:36.480
both sides are going

00:17:36.480 --> 00:17:40.290
And all the energy is wasted inside the rubber
band because the flesh and the spirit are

00:17:40.290 --> 00:17:41.900
fighting with each other.

00:17:41.900 --> 00:17:46.420
So, the secret to high-speed velocity through
a fluid medium such as the atmosphere ...

00:17:46.420 --> 00:17:53.420
... which offers resistance, is to minimize
or eliminate the turbulence. OK?

00:17:55.040 --> 00:17:59.780
All I did when you guys weren’t watching,
was stretch one side tighter than the other.

00:17:59.780 --> 00:18:05.960
One side is tight.

00:18:05.960 --> 00:18:12.710
Now pay attention to what’s going to happen.
If you do it right, the spirit leads the flesh,

00:18:12.710 --> 00:18:16.610
takes away most of the turbulence, and it
goes much farther.

00:18:16.610 --> 00:18:22.630
Got the guy in the back row! So when I am
up here with a whole pile of rubber bands,

00:18:22.630 --> 00:18:22.630
...

00:18:22.630 --> 00:18:28.060
... knowing I can hit anybody in the room,
it gives you this feeling of power ...

00:18:28.060 --> 00:18:30.450
...that some kids really just don’t know how
to handle; do you know what I’m talking about?

00:18:30.450 --> 00:18:34.140
You are thinking about it right now, aren’t
you? Yes, I thought so. Let’s give them a

00:18:34.140 --> 00:18:41.140
hand; have a seat, guys. Thank you so much.

00:18:41.410 --> 00:18:45.160
The Bible says, “the flesh lusteth against
the Spirit, the Spirit against the flesh;

00:18:45.160 --> 00:18:46.650
they are contrary one to the other.”

00:18:46.650 --> 00:18:50.640
This is why some of you won’t go very far
in your spiritual life. You feed the flesh

00:18:50.640 --> 00:18:51.630
too much.

00:18:51.630 --> 00:18:56.680
Shut off the TV once in a while...Simple.
Wait until you see our super airplanes go.

00:18:56.680 --> 00:18:58.520
Tomorrow we are going to show you our super
airplanes.

00:18:58.520 --> 00:19:03.300
I make paper airplanes that go so far, that
if they don’t land in a tree or on a building,

00:19:03.300 --> 00:19:07.180
they go all the way to the ground.

00:19:07.180 --> 00:19:09.060
Our record with the paper airplane is 450
feet.

00:19:09.060 --> 00:19:14.440
We are going to put them completely over the
building including the steeple, tomorrow.

00:19:14.440 --> 00:19:18.840
We like science. We are not against science,
but I am against poison mixed in with the

00:19:18.840 --> 00:19:21.530
science, That’s all. Here is a first grade
textbook.

00:19:21.530 --> 00:19:26.010
This is what they tell the kids in the first
grade. Earth has changed much since its formation

00:19:26.010 --> 00:19:30.980
four and a half billion years ago. Now just
hold on a minute.

00:19:30.980 --> 00:19:36.570
Is the earth four and a half billion years
old? No, as we’ll see in a minute. But if

00:19:36.570 --> 00:19:40.270
you tell that to a first grader, he’s going
to believe you.

00:19:40.270 --> 00:19:44.400
First graders believe everything you tell
them. They believe bananas are moldy spider

00:19:44.400 --> 00:19:45.740
legs. I did.

00:19:45.740 --> 00:19:48.830
And they tell them again in the second grade.

00:19:48.830 --> 00:19:54.890
Since its formation 4.5 billion years ago,
earth has changed. Down at the bottom it says:

00:19:54.890 --> 00:19:57.690
“Life too, has evolved on earth.”

00:19:57.690 --> 00:20:00.120
This word “evolved” is a very tricky word.

00:20:00.120 --> 00:20:04.540
I’ve done over 90 debates and about 7,000
radio and TV call-in talk shows, and I’ve

00:20:04.540 --> 00:20:08.030
learned how to win the debate on evolution
in the first five minutes.

00:20:08.030 --> 00:20:13.730
It is so easy. If somebody says, “Do you believe
in evolution?” I say, “What do you mean?”

00:20:13.730 --> 00:20:15.350
“Well, you know, evolution.”

00:20:15.350 --> 00:20:19.060
“No, which one are you talking about?” There
are six meanings for the word. Are we talking

00:20:19.060 --> 00:20:23.470
about cosmic evolution- evolution of time,
space, matter? I don’t believe in that, with

00:20:23.470 --> 00:20:25.640
the big bang. We’ll talk about that in a minute.

00:20:25.640 --> 00:20:29.630
Are we talking about chemical evolution? Because
according to the big bang theory, the big

00:20:29.630 --> 00:20:32.700
bang produced hydrogen, and maybe some helium.

00:20:32.700 --> 00:20:37.780
Then how did we get all these other elements?
Do you want me to believe uranium evolved

00:20:37.780 --> 00:20:38.560
from hydrogen?

00:20:38.560 --> 00:20:43.550
They’ll say, well yes, you have fusion in
stars. Yes, but you can’t fuse past IRON (Fe)

00:20:43.550 --> 00:20:44.060
very well.

00:20:44.060 --> 00:20:47.880
Besides, you have a chicken and an egg problem
here, because the stars have to make the elements,

00:20:47.880 --> 00:20:51.260
and the elements have to make the stars. Which
one came first?

00:20:51.260 --> 00:20:54.860
Which brings up, of course, stellar evolution.
How did the stars form?

00:20:54.860 --> 00:20:58.200
Did you know that nobody has ever seen a star
form?

00:20:58.200 --> 00:21:02.630
Scientists don’t even have a clue how a star
could form- not even any good theories about

00:21:02.630 --> 00:21:05.930
star formation (more about that in video #7).

00:21:05.930 --> 00:21:10.150
We see stars blow up all the time. It’s called
a nova, or a super nova if it is a big one.

00:21:10.150 --> 00:21:13.400
That happens all the time. But we never see
one form.

00:21:13.400 --> 00:21:17.370
And yet there are enough stars out there that
we know about that everybody on planet earth,

00:21:17.370 --> 00:21:24.370
every single individual, can personally own
11 trillion stars to themselves.

00:21:24.670 --> 00:21:29.000
Those are the ones we know about. We don’t
know about the ones that we don’t know about.

00:21:29.000 --> 00:21:33.770
Fourthly, there would have to be organic evolution,
origin of life. Life would have to be started

00:21:33.770 --> 00:21:35.320
from non-living material.

00:21:35.320 --> 00:21:40.470
Nobody has a clue how that could happen. Then
we would have to have what’s called macroevolution.

00:21:40.470 --> 00:21:43.260
That’s where an animal changes to a different
kind of animal.

00:21:43.260 --> 00:21:49.370
Did you know that nobody has ever seen a dog
produce a non-dog? Never!

00:21:49.370 --> 00:21:53.860
You may get a big dog, or a little dog, but
you are going to get a dog every time. And

00:21:53.860 --> 00:21:57.100
it could be that the dog, the wolf, and the
coyote had a common ancestor.

00:21:57.100 --> 00:22:01.710
I wouldn’t argue about that - they probably
did. But every five-year-old kid knows they’re

00:22:01.710 --> 00:22:04.670
the same kind of animal. I’ll show you.

00:22:04.670 --> 00:22:07.280
Is anybody in here five or six? Who is five
or six years old? Anybody?

00:22:07.280 --> 00:22:14.280
OK. How old are you, buddy? Six? I want you
to take a test.

00:22:17.300 --> 00:22:21.450
Here we have a dog, a wolf, a coyote, and
a banana.

00:22:21.450 --> 00:22:24.720
Which one is different than the rest of them?

00:22:24.720 --> 00:22:29.660
The banana! Give him a hand! All right, very
good!

00:22:29.660 --> 00:22:34.270
We have college professors that can’t figure
that out! I’ll tell you want I want you to

00:22:34.270 --> 00:22:34.520
do.

00:22:34.380 --> 00:22:36.800
When we are done, I want you to go out to
the table out in the hallway, and you can

00:22:36.800 --> 00:22:40.110
pick out any free video or DVD you want, OK?

00:22:40.110 --> 00:22:43.240
We’ve got a bunch of videos and DVDs about
dinosaurs and stuff out there.

00:22:43.240 --> 00:22:49.040
The Bible says the animals are going to bring
forth after their kind. Now Charlie Darwin

00:22:49.040 --> 00:22:55.010
wrote a book on the table down here called
“Origin of Species.” See, the dog and the

00:22:55.010 --> 00:22:59.140
wolf are the same kind of animal but different
species.

00:22:59.140 --> 00:23:02.040
He fooled everybody by changing the word from
“kind” to “species.”

00:23:02.040 --> 00:23:07.660
We’ll talk more about that in video #4. Lastly,
we have what is called microevolution.

00:23:07.660 --> 00:23:12.080
This is changes within the kinds. Now that
one happens. I’ll go along with number six.

00:23:12.080 --> 00:23:16.470
I think animals can produce a whole variety
of offspring: long hair, short hair, long

00:23:16.470 --> 00:23:18.880
legged, short legged; that happens.

00:23:18.880 --> 00:23:22.120
But the first five are purely religious. That’s
not science.

00:23:22.120 --> 00:23:26.360
We never observe any of those! So if you want
to win the debate on evolution, simply define

00:23:26.360 --> 00:23:28.990
exactly what you are talking about.

00:23:28.990 --> 00:23:34.430
And you’ll find all they ever give are examples
of number six, which there is no argument

00:23:34.430 --> 00:23:35.290
about. It happens.

00:23:35.290 --> 00:23:40.110
But then they’ll imply that that is somehow,
magically, evidence for the other five. And

00:23:40.110 --> 00:23:42.080
it is not.

00:23:42.080 --> 00:23:45.230
The teachers are taught though to be sure
to stress to the students that the earth is

00:23:45.230 --> 00:23:47.290
billions of years old.

00:23:47.290 --> 00:23:52.650
Make sure the kids believe this. You know,
I happen to be a little old fashioned.

00:23:52.650 --> 00:23:54.810
I think in science class, we should be teaching
science.

00:23:54.810 --> 00:24:00.450
Science includes things we can observe, study,
test, and demonstrate. Things like the first

00:24:00.450 --> 00:24:02.800
law of thermodynamics.

00:24:02.800 --> 00:24:07.170
The first law of thermodynamics tells us,
“Matter cannot be created or destroyed.”

00:24:07.170 --> 00:24:12.370
Well, everything is made out of matter; so
if matter cannot be created or destroyed,

00:24:12.370 --> 00:24:14.390
then how did the world get here?

00:24:14.390 --> 00:24:18.700
We are here, you know. So that leaves only
two choices.

00:24:18.700 --> 00:24:24.800
Somebody made the world; or the world made
itself. There is no other choice.

00:24:24.800 --> 00:24:28.700
Well, there are a few out there on the lunatic
fringe, who will tell you, “We are not really

00:24:28.700 --> 00:24:32.670
here at all; we just think we are here.”

00:24:32.670 --> 00:24:35.800
OK, you can forget about those folks. We are
here.

00:24:35.800 --> 00:24:39.720
So, either somebody made the world, like the
Bible says, God created it; or the world just

00:24:39.720 --> 00:24:41.620
made itself, like the humanists believe.

00:24:41.620 --> 00:24:47.220
It just is self existing and not created.
Well, if the world just made itself, how could

00:24:47.220 --> 00:24:48.590
this happen?

00:24:48.590 --> 00:24:52.360
Boy, the devil thought about that for a long
time. Finally, one day, he came up with the

00:24:52.360 --> 00:24:54.220
big bang theory.

00:24:54.220 --> 00:24:56.650
How many of you have ever heard of the big
bang theory before?

00:24:56.650 --> 00:25:00.590
I was on an airplane years ago, flying from
Dallas to San Francisco. And I happened to

00:25:00.590 --> 00:25:03.490
sit right next to a professor from Berkeley,
U Cal Berkeley.

00:25:03.490 --> 00:25:08.370
I don’t know if you folks in Knoxville have
ever heard of Berkeley or not, but Berkeley

00:25:08.370 --> 00:25:10.680
is not a Bible college.

00:25:10.680 --> 00:25:15.830
So here I was on the airplane about that far
away from this guy, and we started talking

00:25:15.830 --> 00:25:18.700
about creation and evolution.

00:25:18.700 --> 00:25:23.600
Everybody I sit by on the airplane wants to
talk about that, so I talk about it with them.

00:25:23.600 --> 00:25:26.710
He said he believed in evolution. I said,
“Yes, sir, I figured that; you have to if

00:25:26.710 --> 00:25:27.560
you teach at Berkeley.”

00:25:27.560 --> 00:25:31.330
I said, “Tell me, sir, if you believe in evolution,
how did the world get here?”

00:25:31.330 --> 00:25:37.370
He said, “Oh, it came from the big bang.”
I said, “Really? I’d like to hear about this!”

00:25:37.370 --> 00:25:40.220
He said, “You are a science teacher and you
have never heard of the big bang?”

00:25:40.220 --> 00:25:44.780
I said, “Oh, yes sir, I’ve heard a lot about
the big bang, and I believe in the big bang.

00:25:44.780 --> 00:25:47.140
But my big bang is a lot different than yours.”

00:25:47.140 --> 00:25:50.870
I said, “You tell me about your big bang,
and then I’ll tell you about my big bang.”

00:25:50.870 --> 00:25:54.870
And so, the professor took off on one of those
answers that looked like it came straight

00:25:54.870 --> 00:25:55.970
from the textbook.

00:25:55.970 --> 00:26:02.970
He said, “Well, Mr. Hovind, I believe about
18 to 20 billion years ago...” (that’s a long

00:26:03.540 --> 00:26:04.300
time)

00:26:04.300 --> 00:26:10.290
“...all the matter in the universe...” (that’s
a lot of stuff)

00:26:10.290 --> 00:26:14.460
By the way, the word “universe” comes from
two Latin words: “uni,” which means single,

00:26:14.460 --> 00:26:17.200
and “verse” which means a spoken sentence.

00:26:17.200 --> 00:26:23.320
Did you know we live in a single spoken sentence?
God said, “Let there be....” That’ll preach.

00:26:23.320 --> 00:26:27.590
There is a sermon someplace right there, OK?
And if your pastor can’t find it, he’s got

00:26:27.590 --> 00:26:29.110
no preaching in him at all!

00:26:29.110 --> 00:26:35.210
“All the matter in the uni-verse was concentrated
into one very dense, very hot region, that

00:26:35.210 --> 00:26:42.210
may have been much smaller than a period on
this page.” Say what?

00:26:44.050 --> 00:26:47.870
Everything in the universe squished into a
dot smaller than a period on a page?

00:26:47.870 --> 00:26:53.110
Wow! That’s one crowded dot. And heavy, too.

00:26:53.110 --> 00:26:56.330
But that’s not the first time this happened,
boys and girls.

00:26:56.330 --> 00:27:00.320
This textbook says: “Some day, after many
billions of years, all the matter and energy

00:27:00.320 --> 00:27:04.720
will once again be packed into a small area
no larger than the period at the end of this

00:27:04.720 --> 00:27:06.780
sentence. Then another big bang will occur.”

00:27:06.780 --> 00:27:13.780
“It happens every 80 to 100 billion years.”
Can you believe they cut down a tree to print

00:27:14.490 --> 00:27:16.910
that?

00:27:16.910 --> 00:27:23.910
Where is Al Gore when you need him? That’s
what I want to know, yeah!

00:27:24.010 --> 00:27:29.150
And why did you guys send Al Gore to Washington?
You had him here, you know.

00:27:29.150 --> 00:27:33.420
Now, this textbook author was brilliant. I
could not believe how smart this guy was.

00:27:33.420 --> 00:27:40.210
He said, “Boys and girls, nothing really means
nothing.” You have to be at least that smart

00:27:40.210 --> 00:27:42.250
to write a book.

00:27:42.250 --> 00:27:46.130
He said, “Not only matter and energy would
disappear, but also space and time.

00:27:46.130 --> 00:27:51.430
However, physicists theorize that from this
state of nothingness, the universe began in

00:27:51.430 --> 00:27:53.700
a gigantic explosion.” What?

00:27:53.700 --> 00:28:00.700
Yes, boys and girls, you see, one day, nothing
exploded...

00:28:01.670 --> 00:28:08.670
...And here we are! We can spend three days
talking about the big bang theory.

00:28:09.110 --> 00:28:12.370
They used to say that the thing that exploded
was a few light-years in diameter. Then they

00:28:12.370 --> 00:28:17.340
said, “Oh no, it’s only 275 million miles.”
And then they said, “It’s only 71 million

00:28:17.340 --> 00:28:17.650
miles.”

00:28:17.650 --> 00:28:22.510
They keep getting it smaller, and now they
are saying “nothing” exploded.

00:28:22.510 --> 00:28:25.660
A couple years ago “Discover Magazine” here
said, “Where did everything come from?”

00:28:25.660 --> 00:28:32.130
“Boys and girls, the universe burst into something
from absolutely nothing - zero, nada.

00:28:32.130 --> 00:28:36.490
As it got bigger, it became filled with even
more stuff that came from absolutely nowhere.

00:28:36.490 --> 00:28:38.370
How is that possible? Ask Alan Guth.

00:28:38.370 --> 00:28:43.340
His theory will explain everything.” Wow,
I’ve got to meet this Alan Guth guy.

00:28:43.340 --> 00:28:47.750
Alan Guth said in “Scientific American,” “The
observable universe could have evolved from

00:28:47.750 --> 00:28:53.340
an infinitesimal region.” (In the Hebrew,
that’s “a dot.”)

00:28:53.340 --> 00:28:56.770
He said, “It’s then tempting to go one step
further and speculate that the entire universe

00:28:56.770 --> 00:29:01.840
evolved from literally nothing.” You see,
boys and girls, we all came from a dot and

00:29:01.840 --> 00:29:03.680
the dot came from nothing.

00:29:03.680 --> 00:29:08.040
And they call that science, and put it in
a science journal?

00:29:08.040 --> 00:29:12.960
I think I’d call that a fairy tale and put
it in the garbage.

00:29:12.960 --> 00:29:16.590
I said, “Professor, what happened to your
dot?”

00:29:16.590 --> 00:29:20.140
He said, “Hovind, 20 billion years ago all
the dirt in the solar system was drawn into

00:29:20.140 --> 00:29:21.600
this little, bitty, tiny dot.

00:29:21.600 --> 00:29:27.610
And it was spinning. It spun faster, and faster,
and all of a sudden, it exploded: big bang!

00:29:27.610 --> 00:29:32.690
And the pieces that flew off became galaxies,
and sun, moon, stars, and here we are. People.”

00:29:32.690 --> 00:29:33.970
Nothing but stardust.

00:29:33.970 --> 00:29:37.400
I said, “Sir, can I ask you a couple of questions,
please?”

00:29:37.400 --> 00:29:39.600
He said, “Sure, what do you want to know?”

00:29:39.600 --> 00:29:43.740
You know, we’ve got a three-hour flight sitting
this far away from each other on the airplane.

00:29:43.740 --> 00:29:47.300
I said, “Well sir, I’ve got a question. You
said that 20 billion years ago, all the dirt

00:29:47.300 --> 00:29:51.720
got together for a big squish, a big spin,
and a big bang. Where did all the dirt come

00:29:51.720 --> 00:29:55.820
from?” You know, who made matter? He said,
“We don’t know.”

00:29:55.820 --> 00:30:01.010
I said, “OK now sir, hold it. If I told you
what I believe, that about 6,000 years ago

00:30:01.010 --> 00:30:05.000
God created the heaven and the earth, then
you are going to say, ‘and where did God come

00:30:05.000 --> 00:30:06.940
from?’ And I have no idea.”

00:30:06.940 --> 00:30:11.470
But you said, 20 billion years ago there was
a big bang; and you don’t know where the dirt

00:30:11.470 --> 00:30:12.280
came from.

00:30:12.280 --> 00:30:16.960
So basically, I believe: “In the beginning,
God”; and you believe: “In the beginning,

00:30:16.960 --> 00:30:18.250
dirt.”

00:30:18.250 --> 00:30:23.570
Don’t tell me my theory is religious, and
your theory is scientific. No, no, no!

00:30:23.570 --> 00:30:28.270
They are both religious. The news media tries
to make it look like it is science versus

00:30:28.270 --> 00:30:29.890
religion.

00:30:29.890 --> 00:30:33.210
It’s not science versus religion; these are
two religions.

00:30:33.210 --> 00:30:34.960
Evolution and creation are both religious.

00:30:34.960 --> 00:30:38.640
You have to believe in one or the other.

00:30:38.640 --> 00:30:42.610
The difference is the evolution religion is
tax supported.

00:30:42.610 --> 00:30:44.600
That’s the difference - one of many differences.

00:30:44.600 --> 00:30:47.830
By the way, these two time lines are the same
thing right here, behind me.

00:30:47.830 --> 00:30:51.590
On the top time line, every inch represents
150 years.

00:30:51.590 --> 00:30:57.500
Abe Lincoln was not even president one inch
ago.

00:30:57.500 --> 00:31:01.590
If I was to show you what 20 billion years
looks like at the same scale as the top chart...

00:31:01.590 --> 00:31:04.790
(...I have to have this chart on the bottom
to be this scale...)

00:31:04.790 --> 00:31:09.110
...This one would have to be 2,100 miles long.

00:31:09.110 --> 00:31:12.400
That’s from Pensacola to Portland, Oregon.

00:31:12.400 --> 00:31:15.740
I don’t want to carry a chart that big, so
I made a new scale for the other one.

00:31:15.740 --> 00:31:17.800
The professor said that he did not know where
the matter came from.

00:31:17.800 --> 00:31:19.840
So I said, “Sir, can you tell me where the
laws came from?”

00:31:19.840 --> 00:31:25.690
This universe is run by laws. Gravity, centrifugal
force, inertia, Boyle’s law, Cole’s law (You

00:31:25.690 --> 00:31:26.770
can eat that with potato salad).

00:31:26.770 --> 00:31:30.920
There are all kinds of laws in the universe.
Where did the laws come from?

00:31:30.920 --> 00:31:34.990
And by the way, why aren’t the laws still
evolving? Do you ever think about that?

00:31:34.990 --> 00:31:40.480
Why is gravity always the same? Why don’t
you weigh 10 pounds more one day? (You say,

00:31:40.480 --> 00:31:41.480
“I do!”

00:31:41.480 --> 00:31:46.710
Well, that’s for a different reason.) Where
did the energy come from? Who bought the gas

00:31:46.710 --> 00:31:49.280
to run this machine?

00:31:49.280 --> 00:31:53.400
The professor said, “I don’t know; we don’t
know any of those things.” I said, “Can I

00:31:53.400 --> 00:31:54.330
ask you another question?”

00:31:54.330 --> 00:31:58.210
He said, “Sure. What else would you like to
know?”

00:31:58.210 --> 00:32:01.560
Else? What do you mean, what else? you haven’t
told me anything yet.

00:32:01.560 --> 00:32:06.040
I said, “Sir, does Berkeley have a merry-go-round?”

00:32:06.040 --> 00:32:08.760
How many of you know what a merry-go-round
is? You go round and round, until you throw

00:32:08.760 --> 00:32:09.050
up.

00:32:09.050 --> 00:32:12.530
He said, “No, we don’t have a merry-go-round
at Berkeley.”

00:32:12.530 --> 00:32:14.020
I said, “You really ought to get one.

00:32:14.020 --> 00:32:16.670
You could learn some good science on a merry-go-round.”

00:32:16.670 --> 00:32:20.100
If you put some fourth graders on there...
Any fourth graders in here?

00:32:20.100 --> 00:32:22.300
Last year or next year fourth graders. I know
it’s summertime here.

00:32:22.300 --> 00:32:26.290
All right! I like fourth graders; I spent
the best five years of my life in a fourth

00:32:26.290 --> 00:32:26.820
grade.

00:32:26.820 --> 00:32:32.470
(That was before they diagnosed ADD. By the
time my brother was in the fourth grade, we

00:32:32.470 --> 00:32:35.540
all knew what he was going to be when he finished
high school - 32!)

00:32:35.540 --> 00:32:41.150
Well, we are going to put some fourth graders
on a merry-go-round and get the high school

00:32:41.150 --> 00:32:45.650
football team out there to get it spinning
clockwise, as fast as it will possibly go.

00:32:45.650 --> 00:32:51.750
Now if you have a digital watch, you may not
know what clockwise means. ...I’ll tell you

00:32:51.750 --> 00:32:52.130
later.

00:32:52.130 --> 00:32:56.390
We are going to spin the merry-go-round clockwise,
and the kids are going to go through four

00:32:56.390 --> 00:32:56.670
phases.

00:32:56.670 --> 00:32:59.670
They start off in phase one, where they’re
screaming at the football players, “Come on,

00:32:59.670 --> 00:33:02.510
let’s go faster! Faster! Can’t you go any
faster?”

00:33:02.510 --> 00:33:06.180
You get up around 30 miles an hour, and the
kids enter phase two, where they stop screaming.

00:33:06.180 --> 00:33:10.310
They just quietly concentrate on trying to
hang on for dear life.

00:33:10.310 --> 00:33:16.720
When you get up around 60 miles an hour, the
kids enter phase three, where they start screaming

00:33:16.720 --> 00:33:20.840
again, but now they are screaming, “Stop!
Stop! Please slow down!” Don’t stop though;

00:33:20.840 --> 00:33:22.630
keep going faster and faster.

00:33:22.630 --> 00:33:28.130
When you get to 100 miles an hour, you enter
phase four where the kids begin to fly off

00:33:28.130 --> 00:33:33.190
the merry-go-round. Now when this happens,
you will notice a very interesting phenomenon

00:33:33.190 --> 00:33:34.190
of physics.

00:33:34.190 --> 00:33:40.670
If the merry-go-round is going clockwise when
the kid flies off, the kid will be spinning

00:33:40.670 --> 00:33:42.670
clockwise.

00:33:42.670 --> 00:33:46.920
Until he encounters resistance, like a tree
or a pole.

00:33:46.920 --> 00:33:50.480
That’s because of a law in physics known as
the conservation of angular momentum.

00:33:50.480 --> 00:33:54.890
See, if a spinning object breaks apart, the
pieces that fly off are going to spin the

00:33:54.890 --> 00:34:00.810
same direction, because the outside is moving
faster than the inside.

00:34:00.810 --> 00:34:03.840
And we can talk all day about the conservation
laws if you’d like, but the professor said,

00:34:03.840 --> 00:34:05.860
“Yes, I know about the conservation laws.”

00:34:05.860 --> 00:34:09.770
I said, “Well good, sir, then let me ask you
a question. If the universe began as a spinning

00:34:09.770 --> 00:34:14.270
dot like you said, why do two planets spin
backwards, and probably three?”

00:34:14.270 --> 00:34:20.870
He got real quiet, a puzzled look on his face.
I said, “Sir, why do eight out of ninety-one

00:34:20.870 --> 00:34:22.918
known moons spin backwards?

00:34:22.918 --> 00:34:29.918
Why do Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune have moons
going both directions at the same time?

00:34:32.659 --> 00:34:38.168
Why is the Sun 98% hydrogen and helium, but
the other planets are less than 1% hydrogen

00:34:38.168 --> 00:34:40.320
and helium?

00:34:40.320 --> 00:34:43.370
And why are these nine planets so different
from each other? If they all came from the

00:34:43.370 --> 00:34:46.880
big bang, why are they all so different?

00:34:46.880 --> 00:34:48.370
Very different compositions!

00:34:48.370 --> 00:34:51.620
And why do some whole galaxies spin backwards?”

00:34:51.620 --> 00:34:54.668
CNN did an article, “Goofy galaxy spins in
wrong direction.”

00:34:54.668 --> 00:35:00.980
I said, “Sir, why are these things going backwards?”

00:35:00.980 --> 00:35:02.710
He said, “I don’t know.

00:35:02.710 --> 00:35:06.500
Why do you think they are going backwards?”

00:35:06.500 --> 00:35:08.040
I was hoping he was going to ask that.

00:35:08.040 --> 00:35:09.720
I said, “Sir, it’s really simple.

00:35:09.720 --> 00:35:13.090
You see, ‘In the beginning God created the
heaven and the earth,’ and God did it that

00:35:13.090 --> 00:35:16.280
way on purpose, just to make the big bang
theory look stupid.”

00:35:16.280 --> 00:35:23.280
Yes, amen.

00:35:24.110 --> 00:35:30.550
Now, I do believe in the big bang, because
the Bible teaches the big bang.

00:35:30.550 --> 00:35:35.470
It says, “The heavens shall pass away with
a great noise.” In the original Greek, that’s

00:35:35.470 --> 00:35:36.440
a big bang!

00:35:36.440 --> 00:35:40.940
So there is going to be a big bang. It just
didn’t happen yet, OK?

00:35:40.940 --> 00:35:44.740
So kids, if you go to school, and some professor
says, “Hey, do you believe in the big bang?”

00:35:44.740 --> 00:35:47.610
You should say, “Yes I do, and you’d better
get saved and get ready for it.”

00:35:47.610 --> 00:35:52.350
The big bang is coming soon to a city near
you.

00:35:52.350 --> 00:35:55.840
By the way, if the world came from a big bang
and slowly evolved over billions of years,

00:35:55.840 --> 00:35:57.690
why did Jesus die on the cross?

00:35:57.690 --> 00:35:59.780
What’s the purpose of the death of Christ?

00:35:59.780 --> 00:36:03.790
And when the Bible says God is going to restore
the world like it used to be ...

00:36:03.790 --> 00:36:08.220
Restore it to what? More death and suffering?

00:36:08.220 --> 00:36:11.720
We cover more on that theistic evolution position
in video #7.

00:36:11.720 --> 00:36:16.110
The big bang theory is ludicrous for numerous
reasons, OK? If the big bang theory were true,

00:36:16.110 --> 00:36:19.790
then matter would be evenly distributed. But
it’s not.

00:36:19.790 --> 00:36:24.620
Serious, serious problems with the big bang
theory! Even Fred Hoyle said, “I have little

00:36:24.620 --> 00:36:27.980
hesitation in saying that a sickly pall hangs
over the big bang theory.”

00:36:27.980 --> 00:36:33.880
Get more on that in the book, “Evolution Cruncher.”
It’s a 900-page book; it’s only $5.00. It’s

00:36:33.880 --> 00:36:36.770
an excellent book to give away to every kid
in your high school.

00:36:36.770 --> 00:36:41.480
The second law of thermodynamics tells us,
“Everything tends toward disorder.”

00:36:41.480 --> 00:36:46.650
If you leave something alone for awhile, it’s
going to rot, rust, die, fall apart, or break

00:36:46.650 --> 00:36:47.450
down.

00:36:47.450 --> 00:36:51.270
Nothing gets better by itself. That’s what
the Bible teaches. “The heavens are the works

00:36:51.270 --> 00:36:55.160
of thine hands: they shall perish;...they
wax old as doth a garment.”

00:36:55.160 --> 00:36:59.340
Nothing gets better by itself. Take a look
at your hairdo when you wake up in the morning.

00:36:59.340 --> 00:37:04.690
You’ll see exactly what I am talking about.
Everything tends towards chaos, all right?

00:37:04.690 --> 00:37:11.690
Here is Sue at 20. Here she is at 90. And
here she is at 3,000. Everything tends toward

00:37:15.980 --> 00:37:18.790
chaos, folks, all right?

00:37:18.790 --> 00:37:22.740
All you have to do is nothing, and everything
deteriorates, collapses, breaks down, wears

00:37:22.740 --> 00:37:23.000
out.

00:37:23.000 --> 00:37:26.740
That’s what the second law is all about. Everything
is getting worse.

00:37:26.740 --> 00:37:31.770
Nothing is getting better. But the textbook
says, “Humans probably evolved from bacteria

00:37:31.770 --> 00:37:35.110
more than 4 billion years ago.”

00:37:35.110 --> 00:37:38.940
Was your great-great-great-great-great-great-grandpa
bacteria?

00:37:38.940 --> 00:37:43.960
Evolutionists will say, “Well, Hovind, don’t
you know that if you add energy, you can overcome

00:37:43.960 --> 00:37:46.470
the second law of thermodynamics?

00:37:46.470 --> 00:37:50.130
And the earth receives energy from the sun,
so the earth is an open system. That’s how

00:37:50.130 --> 00:37:51.600
we overcome the law.”

00:37:51.600 --> 00:37:55.540
I understand the argument, but they are missing
the point. Number one: the universe is a closed

00:37:55.540 --> 00:37:55.790
system.

00:37:55.750 --> 00:38:00.500
Number two: adding energy is destructive,
unless there is a special mechanism to use

00:38:00.500 --> 00:38:01.820
and harness the energy.

00:38:01.820 --> 00:38:06.640
See, the Japanese added a bunch of energy
to Pearl Harbor one day. They didn’t organize

00:38:06.640 --> 00:38:08.860
a thing for us, did they?

00:38:08.860 --> 00:38:14.800
So a few years later, we added some energy
to a few of their cities - returned the favor.

00:38:14.800 --> 00:38:18.210
Didn’t organize any thing for them. Adding
energy is destructive.

00:38:18.210 --> 00:38:22.170
The sun adds energy to the roof of your house;
but it’s going to destroy your house.

00:38:22.170 --> 00:38:24.430
The sun’s energy will destroy the entire house.

00:38:24.430 --> 00:38:28.530
The sun’s energy will destroy the roof on
your car. It will destroy your upholstery.

00:38:28.530 --> 00:38:30.740
The sun’s energy will destroy your paint job.

00:38:30.740 --> 00:38:36.550
There is only one thing that can actually
use the sun’s energy: chlorophyll.

00:38:36.550 --> 00:38:39.260
And one little plant cell is more complex
than a space shuttle.

00:38:39.260 --> 00:38:42.440
We cover more on that in video #4.

00:38:42.440 --> 00:38:46.720
Evolution violates the second law, and evolution
is wrong, OK?

00:38:46.720 --> 00:38:52.020
This textbook shows the kids a fossil starfish
and says, “3.4 billion years old... the remains

00:38:52.020 --> 00:38:57.110
of an early ancestor of modern human beings.”

00:38:57.110 --> 00:39:00.580
Was your great-great-great-great-great-great-grandpa
a starfish?

00:39:00.580 --> 00:39:07.580
How about “Discover Magazine,” November 2004?
Was your ancestor a sea sponge? This is your

00:39:10.160 --> 00:39:16.570
ancestor. Wow, who’s your Daddy?

00:39:16.570 --> 00:39:23.570
Now, please don’t laugh at this next picture,
OK?

00:39:24.080 --> 00:39:28.560
This is going to be a picture of my brother
when he first wakes up in the morning, after

00:39:28.560 --> 00:39:32.010
his first cup of coffee, which apparently
was a little too strong.

00:39:32.010 --> 00:39:34.280
By the way, I’ve got to warn these kids.

00:39:34.280 --> 00:39:40.560
Kids, listen carefully. Do not drink coffee!
Because if you drink coffee when you are young,

00:39:40.560 --> 00:39:47.560
when you get married, your babies will be
born naked and illiterate.

00:39:47.940 --> 00:39:53.640
And tea is worse. There was an Indian once,
who drank four gallons of iced tea.

00:39:53.640 --> 00:39:59.610
That night, he drowned in his teepee. Be careful
with that stuff; it’s deadly.

00:39:59.610 --> 00:40:06.140
Anyway, this is going to be my brother, please
don’t laugh- he can’t help it. There he is!

00:40:06.140 --> 00:40:12.450
Notice what the textbook says, “30 million
years ago...” Now kids, let me translate that

00:40:12.450 --> 00:40:13.430
for you.

00:40:13.430 --> 00:40:19.070
Anytime the textbook says, “million of years
ago,” what it means is: long ago, and far

00:40:19.070 --> 00:40:20.020
away.

00:40:20.020 --> 00:40:25.060
It means a fairy tale is coming next, OK?
That’s your warning, a fairy tale is coming

00:40:25.060 --> 00:40:25.610
up.

00:40:25.610 --> 00:40:30.100
“Thirty million years ago these critters evolved.”
There’s that word again, you’ve got to watch

00:40:30.100 --> 00:40:30.650
that.

00:40:30.650 --> 00:40:37.650
It says, “they are ancestral to both humans
and modern apes.” Ancestors to humans?

00:40:38.460 --> 00:40:45.460
Grandpa? “What big eyes you have, grandpa!”
“All The better to see you with, my boy.”

00:40:49.200 --> 00:40:52.130
You know, we’ve been teaching kids they are
nothing but an animal. And today a lot of

00:40:52.130 --> 00:40:54.060
them act like animals.

00:40:54.060 --> 00:40:59.240
Even Barbara Reynolds figured it out. “Your
kids go ape in school?” Here’s why- he’s being

00:40:59.240 --> 00:41:00.630
taught evolution.

00:41:00.630 --> 00:41:05.840
“Guess what, Johnny, you are an animal and
share a common heritage with earthworms.”

00:41:05.840 --> 00:41:09.860
“Ha, ha, you mean I’m just an animal? OK.”

00:41:09.860 --> 00:41:15.970
Have you ever stopped and thought, that possibly
what we are teaching the kids is affecting

00:41:15.970 --> 00:41:17.370
how they behave?

00:41:17.370 --> 00:41:23.560
What you believe determines how you behave.
Kids are taught today that you are just an

00:41:23.560 --> 00:41:24.630
animal.

00:41:24.630 --> 00:41:28.960
The rock music these days is all full of death
and destruction and blood. Well, the Bible

00:41:28.960 --> 00:41:34.970
says, “They that hate me love death!” Kids
are taught today, “There are no absolutes.”

00:41:34.970 --> 00:41:39.750
I was in a debate one time, and this professor
said, “Hovind, there are no absolutes!”

00:41:39.750 --> 00:41:45.550
I said, “Are you absolutely sure?” Blew his
little brain!

00:41:45.550 --> 00:41:48.890
“Now, hold on a minute, how can I be absolutely
sure, when there are no absolutes?”

00:41:48.890 --> 00:41:52.140
I was speaking in a public school in Pennsylvania
a couple of years ago, and this kid sat on

00:41:52.140 --> 00:41:52.620
the second row.

00:41:52.620 --> 00:41:56.640
He said, “Hovind, I am an atheist. There is
no God.” I said, “Are you sure?”

00:41:56.640 --> 00:42:00.100
He said, “I am sure.” I said, “Let me ask
you a question, son.”

00:42:00.100 --> 00:42:03.930
I said, “Do you know everything?” He said,
“Oh, no...no.”

00:42:03.930 --> 00:42:10.790
I said, “Well, OK, good. Do you think maybe
you know half of everything?” He said, “No...”

00:42:10.790 --> 00:42:17.450
Well, let’s pretend for a few minutes that
you know half of everything.

00:42:17.450 --> 00:42:22.650
Would it be possible then for God to exist
in the other half that you don’t know? Brand

00:42:22.650 --> 00:42:27.180
new thought - rattled around in his brain
for awhile and got lost, I’m sure!

00:42:27.180 --> 00:42:31.280
I said, “And by the way son, if you’re an
atheist, let me ask you a simple question.

00:42:31.280 --> 00:42:35.100
How do you tell right from wrong?”

00:42:35.100 --> 00:42:37.000
Ask an atheist that question some time.

00:42:37.000 --> 00:42:40.180
How do you tell right from wrong?

00:42:40.180 --> 00:42:44.620
He said, “That’s easy ... I decide what’s
right and wrong.”

00:42:44.620 --> 00:42:47.590
He said, “I am the god of my own universe.”

00:42:47.590 --> 00:42:52.490
I said, “I am glad to hear about that, son,
because I am going to shoot you in five minutes.”

00:42:52.490 --> 00:42:54.370
He said, “You can’t do that.”

00:42:54.370 --> 00:42:59.720
I said, “Oh yes I can! You see, I am the god
of my own universe, and I decided it’s fine

00:42:59.720 --> 00:43:02.790
for me to shoot you.”

00:43:02.790 --> 00:43:07.050
You see where that logic would lead in a hurry
if “every man did that which was right in

00:43:07.050 --> 00:43:13.520
his own eyes” like the book of Judges says.
Serious problems for society - big time! How

00:43:13.520 --> 00:43:14.780
do you tell right from wrong?

00:43:14.780 --> 00:43:19.750
A simple question to ask an evolutionist.
They don’t have a way to tell.

00:43:19.750 --> 00:43:23.810
Maybe Osama bin Laden should decide right
from wrong. Maybe Bill Clinton should decide

00:43:23.810 --> 00:43:24.600
right from wrong.

00:43:24.600 --> 00:43:31.430
If he has any idea where to find it! I mean,
how do you tell right from wrong? Simple!

00:43:31.430 --> 00:43:33.830
It’s real easy to tell right from wrong-

00:43:33.830 --> 00:43:39.370
“Thus saith the Lord.” Now you see, that is
absolute.

00:43:39.370 --> 00:43:43.490
And the Lord said, “Ye shall not make any
cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print

00:43:43.490 --> 00:43:45.780
any marks upon you.”

00:43:45.780 --> 00:43:51.230
Some people either don’t know what God says,
or maybe they just don’t care what God says.

00:43:51.230 --> 00:43:57.450
But God says don’t do that, OK? Now, if you
did it in the past, you could just say, “God,

00:43:57.450 --> 00:43:59.830
I’m sorry,” and not do it again.

00:43:59.830 --> 00:44:01.240
A lot of teachers don’t seem to understand.

00:44:01.240 --> 00:44:05.100
They just blindly follow the textbook and
think that they have to teach this evolution

00:44:05.100 --> 00:44:05.560
theory.

00:44:05.560 --> 00:44:10.750
No, you don’t have to teach this evolution
theory! Teachers can teach creation in public

00:44:10.750 --> 00:44:12.030
schools if they want.

00:44:12.030 --> 00:44:15.070
We’ve got a video tape called: “The Public
School Presentation” which deals with all

00:44:15.070 --> 00:44:19.640
the laws about teaching creation in public
schools.

00:44:19.640 --> 00:44:25.630
What happened was, Arkansas and Louisiana
passed laws to require that creation be taught.

00:44:25.630 --> 00:44:31.100
The court struck it down in both cases. They
said, “You cannot be required to teach creation.”

00:44:31.100 --> 00:44:34.690
They said, “The teachers can teach it if they
want, but it has to be voluntary on the teacher’s

00:44:34.690 --> 00:44:35.550
part.”

00:44:35.550 --> 00:44:40.320
Even Stephen Gould said, “No statute exists
in any state to bar instruction in ‘creation

00:44:40.320 --> 00:44:40.940
science.’”

00:44:40.940 --> 00:44:46.320
It could be taught before, and it can be taught
now. He was commenting on the 1987 Supreme

00:44:46.320 --> 00:44:46.570
Court decision.

00:44:46.390 --> 00:44:53.390
The ACLU, “the American Communist Lawyers’
Union,” have tried really hard to spread the

00:44:53.580 --> 00:44:57.110
propaganda around that you cannot talk about
creation in the public schools. And that’s

00:44:57.110 --> 00:44:58.890
just simply not true.

00:44:58.890 --> 00:45:02.400
It’s always been perfectly fine to teach creation
in the public schools. There’s never been

00:45:02.400 --> 00:45:05.040
a law against that, OK?

00:45:05.040 --> 00:45:08.510
But if a teacher gets up in front of the class
and says, “OK kids, listen, you started off

00:45:08.510 --> 00:45:12.540
like a slime, and you slowly evolved to a
human.”

00:45:12.540 --> 00:45:16.520
You don’t need to be a genius to figure out
that teaching will destroy some kid’s faith

00:45:16.520 --> 00:45:18.550
in the Bible.

00:45:18.550 --> 00:45:22.870
And anybody that destroys a child’s faith,
better read what Jesus said about that.

00:45:22.870 --> 00:45:26.540
He said, “Whoso shall offend one of these
little ones which believe in me, it were better

00:45:26.540 --> 00:45:29.240
for him that a millstone were hanged about
his neck...

00:45:29.240 --> 00:45:33.200
And that he were drowned in the depth of the
sea.” Anybody that teaches evolution is in

00:45:33.200 --> 00:45:37.170
trouble when they stand before God. The Bible
says, “Be not many masters, knowing that we

00:45:37.170 --> 00:45:40.300
shall receive the greater condemnation.”

00:45:40.300 --> 00:45:45.550
It’s interesting, though, what happened. Back
in the 1950s, the average textbook in America

00:45:45.550 --> 00:45:49.010
had very little evolution - two or three thousand
words was all.

00:45:49.010 --> 00:45:56.010
But in 1957, the Russians beat us in the space
race by launching Sputnik and Americans panicked.

00:45:56.670 --> 00:45:59.320
How many of you are old enough to remember
the panic in America when the Russians were

00:45:59.320 --> 00:46:00.880
winning the space race?

00:46:00.880 --> 00:46:05.280
They had articles in “Life Magazine” like,
“How You can Survive Fallout.”

00:46:05.280 --> 00:46:10.750
They said, “The Soviets are ahead of us in
science, because the Soviets teach evolution.

00:46:10.750 --> 00:46:15.540
We don’t teach it in our schools.” They had
articles on how to build your own bomb shelter.

00:46:15.540 --> 00:46:19.160
People were building them in their back yards
to survive nuclear fallout.

00:46:19.160 --> 00:46:24.640
Wait a minute; the Soviets are ahead in science
because they teach evolution?

00:46:24.640 --> 00:46:28.000
What does evolution have to do with putting
up a satellite?

00:46:28.000 --> 00:46:34.480
Then, in 1959 it was the hundred-year anniversary
of Darwin’s book coming out.

00:46:34.480 --> 00:46:40.360
And in 1959, Eisenhower asked congress for
a billion dollars to push more evolution into

00:46:40.360 --> 00:46:41.300
the school system.

00:46:41.300 --> 00:46:43.400
And he got it.

00:46:43.400 --> 00:46:49.410
American textbooks were rewritten in the late
50s and early 60s to include more evolution.

00:46:49.410 --> 00:46:54.890
They called it “the cold war reconstruction
of American science education.”

00:46:54.890 --> 00:47:00.190
Our whole science curriculum and other curriculums
were rewritten to make sure evolution was

00:47:00.190 --> 00:47:01.720
taught.

00:47:01.720 --> 00:47:07.420
And by 1963 the average textbook had 33,000
words about evolution.

00:47:07.420 --> 00:47:12.370
By 1963, prayer was taken out of our school
system.

00:47:12.370 --> 00:47:14.180
Anybody remember that? Madeline Murray O’Hare?

00:47:14.180 --> 00:47:20.840
By 1963 we saw a great rise in pre-marital
sex for every single age bracket. We saw a

00:47:20.840 --> 00:47:25.200
great rise in sexually transmitted diseases
for ten- to fourteen-year-olds.

00:47:25.200 --> 00:47:32.200
We saw a great rise in unwed birth rates - a
550% increase in pregnancies.

00:47:33.220 --> 00:47:35.520
The difference is being aborted.

00:47:35.520 --> 00:47:38.960
Now one third of all the kids born in the
hospitals are born to a couple that are not

00:47:38.960 --> 00:47:41.190
married. One third of them.

00:47:41.190 --> 00:47:47.680
Illegitimate children. Now listen carefully.
If you are one of those, this is for you.

00:47:47.680 --> 00:47:50.420
Timothy was a “half-breed” that never should
have been born.

00:47:50.420 --> 00:47:54.490
Timothy’s mommy was Jewish, his daddy was
Greek. The Jews weren’t supposed to marry

00:47:54.490 --> 00:47:55.910
anybody but Jews.

00:47:55.910 --> 00:48:00.500
Mama disobeyed; Timothy was the result. But
he wanted to serve God, and God said, “I’ll

00:48:00.500 --> 00:48:03.310
take you, son.” He wrote two books in the
Bible.

00:48:03.310 --> 00:48:07.460
So if your parents messed up, you shut your
mouth- quit whining, and go serve God with

00:48:07.460 --> 00:48:08.270
your life, OK?

00:48:08.270 --> 00:48:11.550
There are no excuses. God will use anybody,
OK?

00:48:11.550 --> 00:48:17.960
The number of unmarried couples living together
has increased radically since 1963. God’s

00:48:17.960 --> 00:48:20.910
Word hasn’t changed. He said, “Thou shalt
not commit adultery.”

00:48:20.910 --> 00:48:26.080
He said, “Whoremongers and adulterers God
will judge.” Jesus said, “If you even look

00:48:26.080 --> 00:48:29.730
and lust, you have committed adultery already
in your heart.”

00:48:29.730 --> 00:48:33.810
By the way, ladies, that’s why it’s important
how you dress.

00:48:33.810 --> 00:48:38.810
My daddy always said, “If you’re not in business,
don’t advertise.”

00:48:38.810 --> 00:48:45.810
Divorce rates have gone crazy in this country.
Child abuse is up 2,300%. Illegal drugs are

00:48:47.300 --> 00:48:51.369
up 6,000% . Violent crimes are up nearly 1000%.

00:48:51.369 --> 00:48:57.190
I am not that old, but I remember the days
when you did not have to lock your house.

00:48:57.190 --> 00:48:59.630
Anybody remember those days?

00:48:59.630 --> 00:49:02.320
And you left the keys in the ignition all
the time. You never took them out, because

00:49:02.320 --> 00:49:03.180
you might lose them.

00:49:03.180 --> 00:49:07.130
And you go up to t the average high school
and half of the pickup trucks in the parking

00:49:07.130 --> 00:49:10.400
lot had a loaded rifle hanging in the back
window.

00:49:10.400 --> 00:49:14.750
And nobody got shot in school in those days,
did they? You probably didn’t hear about this,

00:49:14.750 --> 00:49:19.020
but the kids at Columbine High School that
shot everybody were very strong believers

00:49:19.020 --> 00:49:20.910
in evolution.

00:49:20.910 --> 00:49:23.960
They did the shooting on Hitler’s birthday,
on purpose.

00:49:23.960 --> 00:49:27.900
They shot Isaiah Shoels just because he was
black.

00:49:27.900 --> 00:49:32.110
Hitler hated black people; so did they. This
was evolution-motivated shooting.

00:49:32.110 --> 00:49:37.510
And right after the shooting, Rosie O’Donnell
got on her TV program and said, “See, we need

00:49:37.510 --> 00:49:38.670
more gun control.”

00:49:38.670 --> 00:49:45.670
Rosie, those kids broke 18 gun laws going
into that school. I don’t think two more gun

00:49:45.840 --> 00:49:48.220
laws would have slowed them down.

00:49:48.220 --> 00:49:52.400
See, Rosie can’t figure it out; but one guy
figured out the whole thing and put it on

00:49:52.400 --> 00:49:57.950
the spare tire cover on his van. I saw that;
I said, “Man, I’ve got to get a picture of

00:49:57.950 --> 00:50:00.670
this!” This explains everything.

00:50:00.670 --> 00:50:07.670
He said, “Blaming guns for Columbine is like
blaming spoons for Rosie O’Donnell being fat.”

00:50:11.840 --> 00:50:17.300
It’s not the spoon’s fault, Rosie! And it’s
not the guns’ fault, either. Yeah, blame the

00:50:17.300 --> 00:50:21.200
gun - that’s brilliant! SAT scores have plummeted
since 1963.

00:50:21.200 --> 00:50:24.610
Twice in the last forty years they have dumbed
down the test.

00:50:24.610 --> 00:50:31.310
They made the test dumber, so the scores would
go back up. Teen suicide rates have gone crazy.

00:50:31.310 --> 00:50:36.340
Now, if I told you that if you kissed a frog,
it would turn to a prince, what would you

00:50:36.340 --> 00:50:36.660
say?

00:50:36.660 --> 00:50:40.230
You would say, “No, frogs don’t turn into
princes.”

00:50:40.230 --> 00:50:42.770
How many of you ladies got your husband by
kissing a frog?

00:50:42.770 --> 00:50:46.730
Come on, let’s see. Looks like only about
three.

00:50:46.730 --> 00:50:50.119
See, it doesn’t happen very often; but in
the textbooks it does.

00:50:50.119 --> 00:50:57.119
We started off like an amoeba and slowly evolved
into a frog and very slowly became a prince.

00:50:57.869 --> 00:51:04.550
It’s the same fairy tale. See, if the frog
turns into a prince quickly, we all know it’s

00:51:04.550 --> 00:51:05.710
a fairy tale.

00:51:05.710 --> 00:51:11.400
But if the frog turns into a prince slowly,
now then, that’s modern science.

00:51:11.400 --> 00:51:17.720
No, I’m sorry, that’s still a fairy tale - even
more of a fairy tale.

00:51:17.720 --> 00:51:20.490
The difference is not a kiss. That won’t do
it anymore.

00:51:20.490 --> 00:51:23.100
Today, boys and girls, if you want to turn
your frog into a prince, you’ve got to have

00:51:23.100 --> 00:51:30.100
a super, special, high-powered, magic ingredient
called billions and billions of years.

00:51:31.619 --> 00:51:32.869
How many of you have ever heard that before?

00:51:32.869 --> 00:51:37.560
“Billions of years ago..” It’s all in the
textbooks. You see it on TV, in the magazines;

00:51:37.560 --> 00:51:40.080
it’s in “National Geographic.”

00:51:40.080 --> 00:51:44.700
“Billions and billions of years ago...” They
talk about it like it’s a fact of science.

00:51:44.700 --> 00:51:49.170
Here is a fourth grade textbook. It says,
“Many millions of years ago...”

00:51:49.170 --> 00:51:54.910
Now wait a minute. If anybody ever says that
to me, I say, “Were you there?” They’ll say,

00:51:54.910 --> 00:51:56.940
“No, of course I wasn’t there.”

00:51:56.940 --> 00:52:00.310
Then I’ll say, “Now do you know the earth
is millions of years old?

00:52:00.310 --> 00:52:03.420
Is this really a part of science? Is this
something we can observe, study, test, and

00:52:03.420 --> 00:52:04.119
demonstrate?”

00:52:04.119 --> 00:52:10.110
They’ll say, “No, but everybody believes the
earth is millions of years old.” No, they

00:52:10.110 --> 00:52:10.930
don’t.

00:52:10.930 --> 00:52:16.530
Most Americans believe the earth is less than
10,000 years old and God made it.

00:52:16.530 --> 00:52:22.960
Less than 15% are evolutionists and atheists
in the surveys that they take. Majority of

00:52:22.960 --> 00:52:26.630
Americans do not believe the earth is millions
of years old.

00:52:26.630 --> 00:52:30.290
Now it’s true that slightly more than half
the scientists believe in evolution. That’s

00:52:30.290 --> 00:52:34.880
true, I agree. But that doesn’t make it true.
It’s true that they believe it, but what they

00:52:34.880 --> 00:52:36.110
believe is not true.

00:52:36.110 --> 00:52:39.760
See, just because a bunch of scientists believe
something doesn’t mean anything.

00:52:39.760 --> 00:52:43.690
There was a time when scientists taught that
the planets go around the earth.

00:52:43.690 --> 00:52:47.010
The scientists used to teach that a big rock
will fall faster than a little rock.

00:52:47.010 --> 00:52:51.050
They used to teach that if you were sick,
you had bad blood. Take out your blood, and

00:52:51.050 --> 00:52:53.100
you will get better.

00:52:53.100 --> 00:52:56.510
There were special places all over America
to get your blood taken out.

00:52:56.510 --> 00:52:59.300
You could tell where they were, because they
had a white pole with a red stripe around

00:52:59.300 --> 00:53:00.560
it.

00:53:00.560 --> 00:53:04.619
The barber was the blood letter. And right
beside George Washington, ...

00:53:04.619 --> 00:53:07.560
... when they were bleeding him to death,
was a Bible that told him, “For the life of

00:53:07.560 --> 00:53:09.340
the flesh is in the blood:”

00:53:09.340 --> 00:53:15.600
If they would have read that verse, he might
still be alive today. Well, he would have

00:53:15.600 --> 00:53:16.310
lived longer, anyway.

00:53:16.310 --> 00:53:19.790
But listen, if you went scuba diving and found
a treasure chest full of gold coins.

00:53:19.790 --> 00:53:23.420
And I asked you the simple question, “When
did the boat sink?”

00:53:23.420 --> 00:53:29.369
You say, “I don’t know.” Well, look at the
dates on the coins.

00:53:29.369 --> 00:53:34.340
If there’s a coin in that box from 1750, you
ought to be able to figure out that the boat

00:53:34.340 --> 00:53:38.560
sank after 1750.

00:53:38.560 --> 00:53:43.280
How many can figure that out with no help
at all? It couldn’t sink before that, could

00:53:43.280 --> 00:53:43.820
it?

00:53:43.820 --> 00:53:46.720
You don’t poke around in the box and find
the oldest coin.

00:53:46.720 --> 00:53:52.010
You have to find the most recent coin. And
that kind of limits when the boat could have

00:53:52.010 --> 00:53:52.500
sunk.

00:53:52.500 --> 00:53:54.310
That’s called the limiting factor.

00:53:54.310 --> 00:53:58.500
Did you know that there are probably a hundred
different ways to tell how old the earth is?

00:53:58.500 --> 00:54:02.040
A lot of them give big numbers, and a lot
of them give small numbers, but it’s the small

00:54:02.040 --> 00:54:04.820
ones we’ve got to worry about.

00:54:04.820 --> 00:54:09.750
If you find a dinosaur bone, you should notice
two things about it immediately.

00:54:09.750 --> 00:54:16.020
Number one, it does not talk. Number two,
it doesn’t have a date stamped on it.

00:54:16.020 --> 00:54:23.020
It does not say: “Made by a dinosaur in 70
million BC in Taiwan.” They don’t say that,

00:54:23.450 --> 00:54:23.720
OK?

00:54:23.720 --> 00:54:28.070
So, how do you tell the age of a fossil? How
do you tell the age of the earth?

00:54:28.070 --> 00:54:32.740
How old is this earth anyway? Well, the Bible
dates add up to about 6,000 years.

00:54:32.740 --> 00:54:37.110
The textbooks say it’s billions. Somebody
is wrong.

00:54:37.110 --> 00:54:41.130
There is a difference between 6,000 and 20
billion.

00:54:41.130 --> 00:54:44.210
Congress doesn’t seem to understand the difference,
but there is a difference, OK?

00:54:44.210 --> 00:54:45.630
We’ll talk about that in the next session.

00:54:45.630 --> 00:54:49.130
How do you show that the earth is not billions
of years old?

00:54:49.130 --> 00:54:52.750
But if it is only 6,000 years old like the
Bible teaches, that raises some interesting

00:54:52.750 --> 00:54:53.790
questions.

00:54:53.790 --> 00:54:56.690
What about the dinosaurs? What about carbon
dating?

00:54:56.690 --> 00:54:59.630
How did the light from the stars get here?
What about Grand Canyon?

00:54:59.630 --> 00:55:02.810
Didn’t it take million of years to form? What
about the geologic column?

00:55:02.810 --> 00:55:07.510
Well folks, that’s why my seminar is about
seventeen hours long. I am talking as fast

00:55:07.510 --> 00:55:09.359
as I can go, but we cover all that.

00:55:09.359 --> 00:55:11.600
We’ll cover some more of that in just a minute.

00:55:16.100 --> 00:55:22.760
The Bible says in Genesis 1:1, “In the beginning
God created the heaven and the earth.”

00:55:22.760 --> 00:55:24.560
When was the beginning?

00:55:24.560 --> 00:55:29.780
The Bible says that Jesus created all things
in heaven and earth.

00:55:29.780 --> 00:55:35.180
Well wait, did God create the heaven and the
earth or did Jesus create the heaven and the

00:55:35.180 --> 00:55:35.430
earth?

00:55:35.340 --> 00:55:36.190
Well, they are both fine.

00:55:36.190 --> 00:55:40.920
Jesus is God Almighty in the flesh in spite
of what “Jehovah’s false witnesses” teach,

00:55:40.920 --> 00:55:41.760
OK?

00:55:41.760 --> 00:55:47.900
Jesus said in Matthew 19:4, “Have ye not read
that he which made them at the beginning made

00:55:47.900 --> 00:55:49.920
them male and female.”

00:55:49.920 --> 00:55:55.359
By the way, that was Adam and Eve, not Adam
and Steve. But Jesus said that was the beginning.

00:55:55.359 --> 00:56:01.440
Same thing in Mark 10:6, “From the beginning
of the creation God made them male and female.”

00:56:01.440 --> 00:56:05.609
The Bible says death came into the world because
of man’s sin.

00:56:05.609 --> 00:56:07.790
Nothing died until Adam sinned.

00:56:07.790 --> 00:56:11.420
By man came death. The Bible is real clear
on the topic.

00:56:11.420 --> 00:56:16.510
Adam was the first man and Eve was the mother
of all living.

00:56:16.510 --> 00:56:20.310
Well, that makes it pretty easy then; we just
add up the dates.

00:56:20.310 --> 00:56:23.480
The Bibles says Adam was 130 when Seth was
born.

00:56:23.480 --> 00:56:26.230
Seth was 105 when Enos was born.

00:56:26.230 --> 00:56:28.890
Enos was 90 when Cainan was born.

00:56:28.890 --> 00:56:32.869
You go through the Bible; you add up the dates;
it’s not hard to do.

00:56:32.869 --> 00:56:34.880
You can make a chart like this pretty easily.

00:56:34.880 --> 00:56:39.040
If you get my seminar notebook, the last page
folds out to be that chart, or we’ve got them

00:56:39.040 --> 00:56:40.580
laminated like this one.

00:56:40.580 --> 00:56:43.800
You might want them for placemats when your
skeptic friends come over for lunch.

00:56:43.800 --> 00:56:49.540
You can really stir up a conversation with
one of those. Our ministry has quite a few

00:56:49.540 --> 00:56:51.660
placemats. And the kids can read that instead
of the cereal box.

00:56:51.660 --> 00:56:57.150
But if you add up the dates in the Bible,
you are going to get about 4000 BC for the

00:56:57.150 --> 00:56:58.619
creation.

00:56:58.619 --> 00:57:02.020
Not millions of years ago, but 4000 BC.

00:57:02.020 --> 00:57:04.530
Now I’m not one of those guys that tries to
put an exact date on it.

00:57:04.530 --> 00:57:06.530
I don’t say that it was 4004 BC,

00:57:06.530 --> 00:57:08.250
October 23rd at two in the afternoon.

00:57:08.250 --> 00:57:10.600
I don’t think you can get that close from
Scripture.

00:57:10.600 --> 00:57:16.100
I think Adam was made in the afternoon because
it was just before Eve. It’s the only clue

00:57:16.100 --> 00:57:16.859
I found.

00:57:16.859 --> 00:57:21.619
And I can’t prove this but I think I figured
out why God made Adam first.

00:57:21.619 --> 00:57:27.890
I think God made Adam first because he didn’t
want any advice on how to do it.

00:57:27.890 --> 00:57:31.359
How many would agree with that one?

00:57:31.359 --> 00:57:36.880
By the way, BC means Before Christ. Almost
all the new textbooks are changing it to say

00:57:36.880 --> 00:57:41.390
BCE- before the common era.

00:57:41.390 --> 00:57:46.190
Christ is gone from the schools, folks. Textbooks
say the earth is billions of years old. Jesus

00:57:46.190 --> 00:57:48.930
said the creation of Adam was the beginning.

00:57:48.930 --> 00:57:55.930
Well, was He lying? Did He not understand
science? Or was He right?

00:57:56.119 --> 00:57:59.619
How old is the earth? When was the beginning?

00:57:59.619 --> 00:58:05.430
“Thou Lord in the beginning has laid the foundations
of the earth.” How old is this earth?

00:58:05.430 --> 00:58:09.190
Could that date of 4000 BC be correct?

00:58:09.190 --> 00:58:12.680
I do many debates at universities and speak
on a lot of talk shows and stuff, and there’s

00:58:12.680 --> 00:58:13.609
always some atheist that calls in.

00:58:13.609 --> 00:58:19.280
He will call in and say, “Hovind, I have got
a question, Who did Adam’s sons marry?”

00:58:19.280 --> 00:58:21.130
Good question and a fair question.

00:58:21.130 --> 00:58:25.390
I say that’s a good question and I’d be glad
to answer that. However, you guys are the

00:58:25.390 --> 00:58:27.150
ones that have a serious problem.

00:58:27.150 --> 00:58:31.180
The Bible says “Cain went out from the presence
of the Lord and dwelt in the land of Nod,

00:58:31.180 --> 00:58:34.130
on the east of Eden. And Cain knew his wife
and she conceived.” Well, it doesn’t say he

00:58:34.130 --> 00:58:35.300
found her there.

00:58:35.300 --> 00:58:39.250
But who was his wife and who did Seth marry
anyway?

00:58:39.250 --> 00:58:43.280
And I think I can answer that. However, compared
to the evolutionists we have a minor problem.

00:58:43.280 --> 00:58:47.810
They believe that 18 or 20 billion years ago,
there was a big bang where nothing exploded

00:58:47.810 --> 00:58:49.640
and made everything.

00:58:49.640 --> 00:58:55.050
And 4.6 billion years ago the earth cooled
down and it was a hot ball of rock.

00:58:55.050 --> 00:58:58.020
“The earth began as a hot ball of rock.”

00:58:58.020 --> 00:59:02.670
And then millions of years of torrential rains
created great oceans, and swirling in the

00:59:02.670 --> 00:59:05.660
waters of the oceans is a bubbling broth of
complex chemicals.

00:59:05.660 --> 00:59:11.220
“Progress from a complex chemical soup to
a living organism is very slow.”

00:59:11.220 --> 00:59:14.690
It sure is; it doesn’t even happen; that’s
how slow it is!

00:59:14.690 --> 00:59:19.540
This guy said, “The first self-replicating
systems must have emerged in this organic

00:59:19.540 --> 00:59:20.580
soup.”

00:59:20.580 --> 00:59:25.609
So according to the big bang theory, 20 billion
years ago there was a big bang, and then 4.6

00:59:25.609 --> 00:59:26.890
billion years ago the earth cooled down.

00:59:26.890 --> 00:59:30.500
It rained on the rocks for millions of years,
turned them into soup, and the soup came alive

00:59:30.500 --> 00:59:33.280
3 billion years ago.

00:59:33.280 --> 00:59:38.680
And that first life-form found somebody to
marry (now there’s a good trick) and something

00:59:38.680 --> 00:59:42.830
to eat, of course, and slowly evolved into
everything we see today.

00:59:42.830 --> 00:59:44.250
That’s the big bang theory.

00:59:44.250 --> 00:59:48.850
So great-great-great-great-grandpa was soup.

00:59:48.850 --> 00:59:53.350
I spoke at a college in Boston one time. They
said, “Hovind, you can come to speak at our

00:59:53.350 --> 00:59:56.600
college, if our professors can ask you any
questions they want.

00:59:56.600 --> 01:00:01.359
We would like to show the students how dumb
you Christians really are.”

01:00:01.359 --> 01:00:02.750
I said, “I would be honored to come for that.”

01:00:02.750 --> 01:00:07.070
So I showed up. There were six professors
and all their students in the room. You know,

01:00:07.070 --> 01:00:08.730
I felt like Daniel in the lion’s den!

01:00:08.730 --> 01:00:15.510
I got out my charts and said, “Folks, I believe
the Bible. I believe 6,000 years ago God made

01:00:15.510 --> 01:00:19.490
everything. Then 4,400 years ago, God sent
a Flood which destroyed everything.”

01:00:19.490 --> 01:00:24.470
“Noah saved two of each kind - not species
- kind of animal life on the ark.”

01:00:24.470 --> 01:00:27.140
Then I told them what they believe, because
most of them don’t know what they believe.

01:00:27.140 --> 01:00:28.960
Twenty billion years ago there was a big bang.

01:00:28.960 --> 01:00:32.130
Then 4.6 billion years ago, the earth cooled
down. It rained on the rocks for millions

01:00:32.130 --> 01:00:34.960
of years, turned them into soup and the soup
came alive.

01:00:34.960 --> 01:00:35.890
One professor was really upset.

01:00:35.890 --> 01:00:38.980
He said, “Hovind, do you realize that there
are hundreds of varieties of dogs in the world?”

01:00:38.980 --> 01:00:41.960
I said, “Oh yeah, there’s a bunch.”

01:00:41.960 --> 01:00:45.410
He said, “You mean to tell me that you believe
all those dogs came from just two dogs on

01:00:45.410 --> 01:00:46.160
Noah’s ark?

01:00:46.160 --> 01:00:48.180
Do you expect me to believe that?”

01:00:48.180 --> 01:00:53.190
I said, “Sir, would you look at what you are
teaching your students?

01:00:53.190 --> 01:01:00.190
You’re teaching your students that all those
dogs came from a rock.”

01:01:00.480 --> 01:01:02.280
He didn’t have any more questions after that.

01:01:02.280 --> 01:01:07.530
Anyway, who did Adam’s sons marry? Well, the
Bible says Adam lived after he begat Seth

01:01:07.530 --> 01:01:12.950
800 years and begat sons and daughters.

01:01:12.950 --> 01:01:17.390
How many kids could you have in 800 years?
Several, right?

01:01:17.390 --> 01:01:22.869
A friend of mine in Arkansas had 15 kids in
15 years.

01:01:22.869 --> 01:01:29.869
I met a family from Minnesota with 20 children,
all of them under 20. It’s cold in Minnesota.

01:01:32.350 --> 01:01:37.000
So who did Adam’s sons marry? Well, they married
sisters.

01:01:37.000 --> 01:01:37.980
You say, “Married their sisters?!”

01:01:37.980 --> 01:01:40.440
Well calm down; first of all, there’s no other
choice, OK?

01:01:40.440 --> 01:01:47.180
Secondly, who are you going to report them
to? Think about it.

01:01:47.180 --> 01:01:52.260
Thirdly, there were no laws against it till
2,500 years later when Moses gave the law.

01:01:52.260 --> 01:01:56.700
They didn’t need laws against it at first.
For the first thousand years or so, the race

01:01:56.700 --> 01:01:58.900
had almost no genetic defects.

01:01:58.900 --> 01:02:04.690
There was no problem marrying a sister. See,
everything about you is inherited. Even having

01:02:04.690 --> 01:02:08.160
children is hereditary. If your parents don’t
have any, you won’t either.

01:02:08.160 --> 01:02:15.160
You say, “Wow, I never thought about that.”
Go think about it. You’ll see I’m right.

01:02:15.730 --> 01:02:19.780
People say, “You can’t marry sisters; what
about genetic similarity?”

01:02:19.780 --> 01:02:26.160
Adam married his rib. Talk about genetic similarity!
It was not going to be a problem back then.

01:02:26.160 --> 01:02:29.950
And you won’t notice this reading the Bible,
but when you graph out the date, it is pretty

01:02:29.950 --> 01:02:30.200
amazing.

01:02:30.190 --> 01:02:35.320
You’ll realize that Adam lived long enough
to know his great-great-great-great-grandson.

01:02:35.320 --> 01:02:39.590
Noah’s daddy could have known Adam for 56
years.

01:02:39.590 --> 01:02:42.210
Can you imagine a family reunion back in those
days?

01:02:42.210 --> 01:02:47.740
All right, everybody hop on the camel. We
are going to go visit great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandpa

01:02:47.740 --> 01:02:48.240
Adam.

01:02:48.240 --> 01:02:52.820
And he is going to tell us what it was like
in the Garden of Eden (before the first woman

01:02:52.820 --> 01:02:57.359
ate the first man out of house and home).

01:02:57.359 --> 01:02:59.940
I do tell a lot of Adam-and-Eve jokes. And
I’ll just tell you that right now. And this

01:02:59.940 --> 01:03:02.599
one lady said, “Now just where would you men
be without us women?”

01:03:02.599 --> 01:03:06.470
I said, “In the Garden of Eden.”

01:03:06.470 --> 01:03:13.170
But it’d be lonely; it wouldn’t be worth it.

01:03:13.170 --> 01:03:16.490
You won’t notice this reading your Bible either,
but when you graph out the dates, it’s like,

01:03:16.490 --> 01:03:18.060
wow, that’s pretty cool!

01:03:18.060 --> 01:03:22.520
Noah’s son Shem lived long enough after the
Flood to know Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

01:03:22.520 --> 01:03:29.520
Jacob had 13 kids: 12 boys and 1 girl. One
of those boys was Joseph.

01:03:29.590 --> 01:03:32.730
He’s the guy that got the coat of many colors.
And the brothers got jealous and beat him

01:03:32.730 --> 01:03:34.400
up. They threw him in the pit and he ended
up down in Egypt.

01:03:34.400 --> 01:03:37.090
And he became the “Vice Pharaoh” or whatever
they called it.

01:03:37.090 --> 01:03:40.210
And later Joseph invited all of his brothers
to move down to Egypt and live with them.

01:03:40.210 --> 01:03:45.320
So Joseph is introducing his dad, Jacob, to
Pharaoh. And Pharaoh said to Jacob, “How old

01:03:45.320 --> 01:03:46.550
are you?”

01:03:46.550 --> 01:03:49.130
And Jacob said, “I’m 130 years old.”

01:03:49.130 --> 01:03:52.760
“Few and evil have the days of the years of
my life been and have not attained unto the

01:03:52.760 --> 01:03:54.920
days of the years of the life of my fathers.”

01:03:54.920 --> 01:04:00.970
I read that verse 36 years ago as a brand
new Christian and I thought, what’s he saying

01:04:00.970 --> 01:04:01.440
here?

01:04:01.440 --> 01:04:05.470
I’m 130, but this is nothing compared to my
ancestors?

01:04:05.470 --> 01:04:10.590
Yeah, when you figure he could have personally
known Shem, Arphaxad, Salah, and Eber.

01:04:10.590 --> 01:04:14.720
If you were 130 but you know a 600-year-old
that lives around the corner, you just don’t

01:04:14.720 --> 01:04:15.859
feel so old anymore.

01:04:15.859 --> 01:04:19.740
Anyway, the textbooks say that the earth is
billions of years old.

01:04:19.740 --> 01:04:22.050
Jesus said the creation of Adam was the beginning.

01:04:22.050 --> 01:04:24.920
Now was Jesus lying? Was He stupid?

01:04:24.920 --> 01:04:28.640
Or was He right? How old is the earth?

01:04:28.640 --> 01:04:32.340
Do the books in this town teach the kids the
earth is billions of years old?

01:04:32.340 --> 01:04:35.320
Are they going to learn this in school when
they go back?

01:04:35.320 --> 01:04:37.660
“4.6 billion years ago ...”

01:04:37.660 --> 01:04:41.820
Even some Christians are teaching that the
earth is billions of years old.

01:04:41.820 --> 01:04:45.099
Some people do who really sincerely, honestly
love the Lord!

01:04:45.099 --> 01:04:47.880
This list of folks tells some of those, just
a few of those, who teach that the earth is

01:04:47.880 --> 01:04:49.500
billions of years old.

01:04:49.500 --> 01:04:52.740
I debated Hugh Ross for three hours on the
John Ankerberg show.

01:04:52.740 --> 01:04:56.599
Both of those guys believe that the earth
is billions of years old. People say, “Well

01:04:56.599 --> 01:04:58.700
who cares? What difference does it make?”

01:04:58.700 --> 01:05:00.890
It makes a giant difference.

01:05:00.890 --> 01:05:03.960
Because if you are going to have billions
of years, you are going to have death before

01:05:03.960 --> 01:05:05.940
sin.

01:05:05.940 --> 01:05:09.940
Now you have a heresy. And it is heresy!

01:05:09.940 --> 01:05:13.109
It’s not heresy to believe the earth is billions
of years old, but it is heresy to put death

01:05:13.109 --> 01:05:13.760
before sin.

01:05:13.760 --> 01:05:15.560
Now that is a clear heresy.

01:05:15.560 --> 01:05:21.840
The Bible says death reigned from Adam to
Moses. By man came death. In Adam all die.

01:05:21.840 --> 01:05:23.119
Who cares about the age of the earth?

01:05:23.119 --> 01:05:26.690
Well for one thing, the credibility of Genesis
is at stake.

01:05:26.690 --> 01:05:31.540
The average person reading that book is not
going to find billions of years in there.

01:05:31.540 --> 01:05:33.140
So the question is real simple.

01:05:33.140 --> 01:05:36.619
Can the average person read the Bible and
understand it or do we have to have some guru

01:05:36.619 --> 01:05:38.460
tell us what it means?

01:05:38.460 --> 01:05:44.930
Secondly, the credibility of Jesus is at stake
since He quoted Genesis 25 times. And just

01:05:44.930 --> 01:05:49.510
about every other book in the Bible refers
to the Book of Genesis.

01:05:49.510 --> 01:05:52.940
It’s an important topic. And the evolutionists
really care!

01:05:52.940 --> 01:05:57.810
If you take away billions of years, their
theory looks real silly.

01:05:57.810 --> 01:06:02.440
Jesus said, “For had ye believed Moses, ye
would have believed me: for he wrote of me.”

01:06:02.440 --> 01:06:05.840
Well, the Bible clearly teaches about 6,000
years.

01:06:05.840 --> 01:06:09.390
Let’s see what the scientific evidence says.

01:06:09.390 --> 01:06:14.390
In 1999 the world’s population crossed over
the 6 billion mark.

01:06:14.390 --> 01:06:17.640
In 1985 there were 5 billion people on planet
earth.

01:06:17.640 --> 01:06:20.349
In 1800 there was one billion people here.

01:06:20.349 --> 01:06:24.460
Everybody agrees there were about one billion
people here around 1800. And everybody agrees

01:06:24.460 --> 01:06:26.680
the world’s population is growing rapidly.

01:06:26.680 --> 01:06:32.609
But the world is not overcrowded. Don’t fall
for that over-populated propaganda going around

01:06:32.609 --> 01:06:33.619
the schools.

01:06:33.619 --> 01:06:35.320
The world is not overcrowded.

01:06:35.320 --> 01:06:39.590
The whole world’s population today, all 6
billion people, would fit inside Jacksonville,

01:06:39.590 --> 01:06:42.730
Florida twice.

01:06:42.730 --> 01:06:45.280
That little city has 25 billion square feet.

01:06:45.280 --> 01:06:48.270
The world’s not overcrowded, folks.

01:06:48.270 --> 01:06:53.849
Have you driven across Nebraska? Or Kansas?
Or New Mexico? Or Texas?

01:06:53.849 --> 01:06:56.670
Drive across Texas. Have any of you driven
across Texas?

01:06:56.670 --> 01:06:59.440
You can go for three days. Are we still in
Texas?

01:06:59.440 --> 01:07:04.030
Yeah, nothing out there but flat rabbits,
I tell you what.

01:07:04.030 --> 01:07:04.980
The world’s not overcrowded.

01:07:04.980 --> 01:07:08.420
Drive across Tennessee, for Heaven’s sake.
It’s not overcrowded.

01:07:08.420 --> 01:07:12.180
Look, if it’s overcrowded where you are, move!

01:07:12.180 --> 01:07:17.040
There is plenty of room out there other places,
OK? Back when Jesus was here, the world’s

01:07:17.040 --> 01:07:21.920
population was only about a quarter of a billion!

01:07:21.920 --> 01:07:26.570
It looks like the whole population growth
curve started about 4,400 years ago.

01:07:26.570 --> 01:07:30.140
Now if you believe in evolution, you’ve got
a problem.

01:07:30.140 --> 01:07:33.020
You think man’s been here for 3 million years.

01:07:33.020 --> 01:07:40.020
In 3 million years the population would have
grown. Right now there’d be about 150,000

01:07:40.990 --> 01:07:43.520
people per square inch.

01:07:43.520 --> 01:07:48.290
That would be crowded. No, man’s not been
here for millions of years.

01:07:48.290 --> 01:07:52.200
God told Adam to replenish the earth; fill
it with kids. Have lots of kids!

01:07:52.200 --> 01:07:56.480
“He formed the world to be inhabited,” Isaiah
45 tells us.

01:07:56.480 --> 01:08:00.240
We got people on the other side saying we
should reduce the population of the earth.

01:08:00.240 --> 01:08:02.109
That is Satan’s plan, of course.

01:08:02.109 --> 01:08:07.180
Jacques Cousteau said we need to eliminate
350,000 people per day.

01:08:07.180 --> 01:08:11.840
Ted Turner said we need a 95% decline in populations.

01:08:11.840 --> 01:08:15.030
Okay, Ted, you first.

01:08:15.030 --> 01:08:19.660
These guys for the New World Order want to
reduce the population of the world to a half

01:08:19.660 --> 01:08:20.880
billion.

01:08:20.880 --> 01:08:25.569
See, Satan was told by the Lord in the Garden
of Eden, “You are going to crawl on your belly

01:08:25.569 --> 01:08:28.109
and eat dust all your life.”

01:08:28.109 --> 01:08:32.399
Then the Lord said, “I will put enmity between
thee and the woman, between thy seed and her

01:08:32.399 --> 01:08:35.729
seed, it shall bruise thy head.”

01:08:35.729 --> 01:08:38.880
Satan knows that someday some seed of the
woman is going to bruise his head and he’s

01:08:38.880 --> 01:08:40.250
not looking forward to that.

01:08:40.250 --> 01:08:43.859
So he has decided he’s going to kill every
human being on the planet.

01:08:43.859 --> 01:08:48.920
Satan’s goal is to kill all of humanity to
thwart God’s plan.

01:08:48.920 --> 01:08:51.089
God said to fill the earth with kids; have
a bunch of kids.

01:08:51.089 --> 01:08:52.979
Satan says, “No, we are going to reduce it
to zero.”

01:08:52.979 --> 01:08:58.920
Remember when Herod wanted to kill baby Jesus
in Bethlehem? What did he do?

01:08:58.920 --> 01:09:03.920
He killed all the children. Let’s be sure
to get the right one. Just kill them all.

01:09:03.920 --> 01:09:06.729
And Satan’s going to try to kill every human
being on the planet.

01:09:06.729 --> 01:09:09.960
Charles Wurster said, “People are the cause
of all the problems, we need to get rid of

01:09:09.960 --> 01:09:11.540
some of them.”

01:09:11.540 --> 01:09:14.839
Bill Clinton signed the biodiversity treaty
that said we need to reduce the earth’s population

01:09:14.839 --> 01:09:15.839
to one billion.

01:09:15.839 --> 01:09:20.040
They’ve already got the earth divided up into
regions.

01:09:20.040 --> 01:09:23.950
The red areas on the map are for animals only.
No human beings allowed.

01:09:23.950 --> 01:09:29.020
The treaty’s been signed; it just hasn’t been
enforced yet - coming soon though.

01:09:29.020 --> 01:09:32.469
Peter Singer is the guy who wants to have
abortions after the baby’s born.

01:09:32.469 --> 01:09:36.020
You have got 28 days to decide if you want
to keep it.

01:09:36.020 --> 01:09:37.750
He said, “Christianity is our foe.”

01:09:37.750 --> 01:09:41.899
“If animal rights is to succeed, we must destroy
the Judeo-Christian religious tradition.”

01:09:41.899 --> 01:09:45.469
Like animals should have more rights than
humans. Alan Gregg said, “The world has cancer,

01:09:45.469 --> 01:09:48.609
and the cancer is man.”

01:09:48.609 --> 01:09:51.850
Prince Phillip is the husband of Queen Elizabeth.
She’s the one that invented the “micro-wave.”

01:09:51.850 --> 01:09:58.850
Prince Phillip said, “If I could be reincarnated,
I would wish to return to earth as a killer

01:09:59.780 --> 01:10:03.370
virus to lower human population levels.”

01:10:03.370 --> 01:10:09.610
Nice guy, Phil. By the way, Monsanto is real
busy on developing genetically modified foods.

01:10:09.610 --> 01:10:10.940
They banned them in Europe.

01:10:10.940 --> 01:10:17.239
But 70% of everything you eat now contains
genetically modified foods, causing all kinds

01:10:17.239 --> 01:10:19.040
of problems with health.

01:10:19.040 --> 01:10:21.969
Get the book, “Seeds of Deception,” if you
want a whole lot more on that.

01:10:21.969 --> 01:10:26.840
Or read “Engineered Extinction” from the “New
American” magazine about how our food is being

01:10:26.840 --> 01:10:28.500
tampered with to reduce the population.

01:10:28.500 --> 01:10:32.630
The United Nations said, “Food is power, we
use it to control behavior, ... we do not

01:10:32.630 --> 01:10:33.440
apologize.”

01:10:33.440 --> 01:10:38.170
And before you get excited about vaccines,
you might want to read what’s happening with

01:10:38.170 --> 01:10:41.270
the viruses being injected in with the vaccines.

01:10:41.270 --> 01:10:42.710
Time bombs are being planted in there.

01:10:42.710 --> 01:10:48.400
There’s a long story on that; we cover more
on that in our “Bible & Health” video tape.

01:10:48.400 --> 01:10:55.300
Autism has gone crazy. There’s been a 75,000
percent increase in autism in Illinois! It’s

01:10:55.300 --> 01:10:57.530
from vaccines, most people believe.

01:10:57.530 --> 01:11:00.530
Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) seems
to be from vaccines.

01:11:00.530 --> 01:11:03.020
In Australia they made vaccines non-mandatory.

01:11:03.020 --> 01:11:08.700
50% of the people dropped out, and Australia
had a 50% drop in (SIDS) Sudden Infant Death

01:11:08.700 --> 01:11:09.930
Syndrome.

01:11:09.930 --> 01:11:13.219
Go to www.marytocco.com if you want more on
vaccines.

01:11:13.219 --> 01:11:17.000
But there are people who want to reduce the
population of the earth.

01:11:17.000 --> 01:11:21.590
Go outside of Atlanta, Georgia, to the town
of Elberton. Go north about seven or eight

01:11:21.590 --> 01:11:23.030
miles on Highway 77.

01:11:23.030 --> 01:11:27.370
Look off to the right. You’ll see a place
where they teach that we should reduce the

01:11:27.370 --> 01:11:29.000
population of the planet.

01:11:29.000 --> 01:11:32.950
If you look off to the right, you’ll see these
stones over here that look like Stonehenge.

01:11:32.950 --> 01:11:35.270
You drive over there and it is the weirdest
place - in the middle of nowhere.

01:11:35.270 --> 01:11:41.210
You get up and you read them and it says in
12 languages: The Ten Commandments for the

01:11:41.210 --> 01:11:43.570
New World Order.

01:11:43.570 --> 01:11:48.670
Commandment number one, Maintain humanity
under one-half billion.

01:11:48.670 --> 01:11:53.040
Well now hold on a minute, there are already
6 billion people here.

01:11:53.040 --> 01:11:58.400
How do they propose to “maintain humanity
under a half billion?”

01:11:58.400 --> 01:12:02.070
Looks to me like there would have to be a
dramatic drop in human population. That is

01:12:02.070 --> 01:12:03.730
exactly what the devil wants.

01:12:03.730 --> 01:12:05.710
More on that in our college class: CSE 101.

01:12:05.710 --> 01:12:09.770
Well, regardless of what happens in the future,
the population today tells us that man has

01:12:09.770 --> 01:12:11.810
only been here about 4,400 years.

01:12:11.810 --> 01:12:17.100
They said it looks like there has been a genetic
bottleneck. The whole population was reduced

01:12:17.100 --> 01:12:19.810
to just a few thousand just a couple thousand
years ago.

01:12:19.810 --> 01:12:23.710
Hey, they are getting closer. Actually it
was all reduced to eight persons only about

01:12:23.710 --> 01:12:25.680
4,400 years ago.

01:12:25.680 --> 01:12:29.489
I tell everybody that you keep studying, and
when you get done climbing the mountain of

01:12:29.489 --> 01:12:32.280
truth, you’ll find the Baptists have been
sitting there all along.

01:12:32.280 --> 01:12:37.880
Galaxies are spinning, but the stars in the
middle go faster than the stars on the outside.

01:12:37.880 --> 01:12:42.840
So why do we still have spiral arms on the
galaxies? They should not be there.

01:12:42.840 --> 01:12:48.480
Galaxies are evidence that the universe is
not billions of years old.

01:12:48.480 --> 01:12:51.410
Stars are blowing up all the time. It is called
a supernova or a nova.

01:12:51.410 --> 01:12:55.090
But a star blows up about every 30 years,
and yet there are less than 300 supernova

01:12:55.090 --> 01:12:58.420
remnants or fragments that have been found.

01:12:58.420 --> 01:13:00.980
That’s only a few thousand years worth of
stars.

01:13:00.980 --> 01:13:04.370
Why aren’t there billions of supernova remnants?

01:13:04.370 --> 01:13:07.850
Some people say, “Well, new stars are forming
in the Crab nebula or horsehead nebula.”

01:13:07.850 --> 01:13:11.980
No, that’s a bunch of bologna. We cover that
on video #7. Nobody’s ever seen a star form.

01:13:11.980 --> 01:13:15.030
The planet Jupiter is cooling off rapidly.

01:13:15.030 --> 01:13:19.230
The stars are changing from red giants to
white dwarfs.

01:13:19.230 --> 01:13:23.210
The textbooks say it takes billions of years.
We know that is not true.

01:13:23.210 --> 01:13:28.180
All the ancient astronomers said Sirius was
a red star. Today it is a white dwarf.

01:13:28.180 --> 01:13:31.810
It happens in a few thousand years. Don’t
let them tell you it takes billions of years.

01:13:31.810 --> 01:13:33.730
Jupiter’s cooling off rapidly.

01:13:33.730 --> 01:13:38.980
Constantly losing heat, it cannot be billions
of years old. It would have been cold by now.

01:13:38.980 --> 01:13:43.510
Jupiter’s moon Ganymede has a strong magnetic
field, indicating a liquid core, meaning it

01:13:43.510 --> 01:13:45.570
is not billions of years old.

01:13:45.570 --> 01:13:50.280
Saturn’s rings are expanding away from the
planet. They cannot be billions of years old.

01:13:50.280 --> 01:13:53.410
There’s more about that in the book, “In the
Beginning” by Walt Brown, an excellent book

01:13:53.410 --> 01:13:53.880
by the way.

01:13:53.880 --> 01:13:58.770
The moon goes around the earth. How many knew
that already? The moon goes around the earth.

01:13:58.770 --> 01:14:02.310
Did you know that as the moon moves around
the earth, it is gradually getting farther

01:14:02.310 --> 01:14:02.630
away?

01:14:02.630 --> 01:14:09.440
We are slowly losing the moon. It’s leaving
us a couple inches a year - no big deal.

01:14:09.440 --> 01:14:13.170
Nothing to worry about; plus nothing you can
do about it anyway.

01:14:13.170 --> 01:14:15.880
But the moon is getting farther from the earth
every day.

01:14:15.880 --> 01:14:22.330
Now kids, this is going to be complicated,
so listen carefully. The moon is getting farther

01:14:22.330 --> 01:14:25.270
from the earth every day.

01:14:25.270 --> 01:14:32.270
So that means that it used to be ... closer.
How many can figure this out with no help

01:14:34.390 --> 01:14:35.080
at all?

01:14:35.080 --> 01:14:39.580
Well, if you bring the moon in closer, you
start to create a problem, because the moon

01:14:39.580 --> 01:14:43.450
causes the tides.

01:14:43.450 --> 01:14:46.310
You folks in Knoxville probably don’t worry
about the tides.

01:14:46.310 --> 01:14:48.360
But in Pensacola, you worry about the tides.

01:14:48.360 --> 01:14:52.870
You see, if the moon was closer, the tides
would be higher.

01:14:52.870 --> 01:14:55.380
There’s a law called the inverse square law.

01:14:55.380 --> 01:14:59.370
If you brought the moon in to 1/3 the distance,
you take the 1/3, flip it over and square

01:14:59.370 --> 01:15:03.030
it. It’s nine times the gravitational pull!

01:15:03.030 --> 01:15:07.050
If you run all the math on this, you’ll find
out that the moon and earth would have been

01:15:07.050 --> 01:15:09.830
almost together 1.4 billion years ago.

01:15:09.830 --> 01:15:16.270
Dr. Walt Brown says 1.2 billion years ago
is the max life span for the earth and moon.

01:15:16.270 --> 01:15:21.469
Well, if the moon was whizzing around just
above the surface of the earth, that explains

01:15:21.469 --> 01:15:25.590
what happened to the tall dinosaurs.

01:15:25.590 --> 01:15:31.520
They got mooned.

01:15:31.520 --> 01:15:35.670
Comets are flying around through space, but
comets are constantly losing material.

01:15:35.670 --> 01:15:37.800
Stuff blows off the tail of a comet.

01:15:37.800 --> 01:15:41.500
You can’t just keep losing; pretty soon it
is gone.

01:15:41.500 --> 01:15:43.460
You know, it’s kind of like your checkbook.

01:15:43.460 --> 01:15:48.250
See, if your outgo exceeds your income, your
upkeep will be your downfall, every single

01:15:48.250 --> 01:15:48.610
time!

01:15:48.610 --> 01:15:53.830
Well, these comets are always losing material.
That’s something you just can’t keep doing

01:15:53.830 --> 01:15:54.860
forever.

01:15:54.860 --> 01:16:01.540
Most astronomer’s say comets can’t last more
than about 10,000 years. OK, well then I have

01:16:01.540 --> 01:16:02.900
a question.

01:16:02.900 --> 01:16:07.710
Why do we still have comets out there? They
should all be gone by now.

01:16:07.710 --> 01:16:11.650
I mentioned in a seminar years ago that comets
are an indication that the solar system is

01:16:11.650 --> 01:16:13.650
less than 10,000 years old.

01:16:13.650 --> 01:16:20.650
And an atheist went home and devoted an entire
Web site against me, an anti-Hovind Web site.

01:16:20.650 --> 01:16:22.500
There are now over a thousand.

01:16:22.500 --> 01:16:28.270
One guy told me there is closer to 2,000 anti-Hovind
Web sites now. I’m so proud of myself.

01:16:28.270 --> 01:16:32.320
Well, this one scoffer on his Web site said,
“Hovind, don’t you know about a Dutch astronomer

01:16:32.320 --> 01:16:35.450
back in 1950? His name was Jan Oort.

01:16:35.450 --> 01:16:41.540
He proposed (he hoped; he wished; he prayed)
that there was a great shell of comets out

01:16:41.540 --> 01:16:46.290
there, and new ones kept coming in to replace
the ones that are burning out.”

01:16:46.290 --> 01:16:50.290
So he said that the reason we still have comets
is because new ones are replacing the ones

01:16:50.290 --> 01:16:51.940
that are burning up.

01:16:51.940 --> 01:16:55.210
They called it the “Oort Cloud” of comets.

01:16:55.210 --> 01:16:59.550
He said this Oort cloud is 50,000 astronomical
units away.

01:16:59.550 --> 01:17:04.400
Well, if you don’t know what an astronomical
unit, it is the distance from the sun to the

01:17:04.400 --> 01:17:04.670
earth.

01:17:04.670 --> 01:17:07.550
That is one astronomical unit.

01:17:07.550 --> 01:17:12.840
It’s pretty hard to see Pluto without a really
good telescope. And Pluto’s only 39 astronomical

01:17:12.840 --> 01:17:13.969
units away.

01:17:13.969 --> 01:17:20.210
You’re never going to see a comet at 50,000
astronomical units, that’s for sure.

01:17:20.210 --> 01:17:25.070
Nobody’s ever seen this Oort cloud. Oort never
saw the Oort cloud.

01:17:25.070 --> 01:17:30.580
The whole thing is based on a mathematical
mistake. There is no Oort cloud.

01:17:30.580 --> 01:17:35.770
Even Carl Sagan said, “Many scientific papers
are written each year about the Oort cloud,

01:17:35.770 --> 01:17:37.630
its properties, its origin, its evolution.
...

01:17:37.630 --> 01:17:42.420
Yet there is not yet a shred of direct observational
evidence for its existence.”

01:17:42.420 --> 01:17:44.690
There is no Oort cloud.

01:17:44.690 --> 01:17:48.880
But the scoffer on his Web site said, “Hovind,
if you want to use the comet argument to prove

01:17:48.880 --> 01:17:49.940
the earth is young, ...

01:17:49.940 --> 01:17:55.690
It’s up to you to prove beyond a shadow of
a doubt that the Oort cloud and other sources

01:17:55.690 --> 01:17:56.920
don’t exist!”

01:17:56.920 --> 01:18:03.910
Wait, wait, wait. How would you prove the
nonexistence of something?

01:18:03.910 --> 01:18:09.730
Wouldn’t I have to be all places at the same
instant to prove something doesn’t exist?

01:18:09.730 --> 01:18:12.820
What he’s trying to do here is called shifting
the burden of proof.

01:18:12.820 --> 01:18:15.550
The liberals do it to us all the time, and
we fall for it.

01:18:15.550 --> 01:18:21.210
I’ll show you how easy it is to do. Suppose
I said that watermelons are blue on the inside

01:18:21.210 --> 01:18:28.210
until you cut the skin. Prove I’m wrong.

01:18:28.469 --> 01:18:31.060
It’s called shifting the burden of proof.
That would be pretty hard to do, wouldn’t

01:18:31.060 --> 01:18:31.390
it?

01:18:31.390 --> 01:18:37.670
As soon as you cut the skin - oh see, it turned
red. I was right; it was blue a second ago.

01:18:37.670 --> 01:18:41.770
He says I have to prove there’s no Oort cloud.
Now wait, Dave, here’s what we know.

01:18:41.770 --> 01:18:46.870
We know we have comets. We know they don’t
last more than about 10,000 years.

01:18:46.870 --> 01:18:51.380
We know the Bible says the earth is 6,000
years old. I don’t have a problem with comets.

01:18:51.380 --> 01:18:55.969
But he wants it to look like I have a problem
with comets, when he’s the one who’s got the

01:18:55.969 --> 01:18:56.550
problem.

01:18:56.550 --> 01:19:01.150
The Bible says, “The heavens declare the glory
of God.” It’s interesting. Evolution theory

01:19:01.150 --> 01:19:04.910
has the sun and stars evolving before the
earth.

01:19:04.910 --> 01:19:09.200
The Bible says, God made the earth before
the sun and stars.

01:19:09.200 --> 01:19:14.400
Everything about the evolution theory is backwards
to the Bible. Every single thing - absolutely

01:19:14.400 --> 01:19:16.690
backwards!

01:19:16.690 --> 01:19:19.670
These theories don’t match. Everything’s backwards.

01:19:19.670 --> 01:19:24.719
The Bible says man brought death into the
world. Evolution says death brought man into

01:19:24.719 --> 01:19:26.100
the world.

01:19:26.100 --> 01:19:32.110
The Bible says God created man; evolution
says no, man created God.

01:19:32.110 --> 01:19:34.120
These theories are polar opposites.

01:19:34.120 --> 01:19:38.500
People say, “Couldn’t God use evolution to
create?”

01:19:38.500 --> 01:19:41.580
Well He could have, but it’s not the God of
the Bible, that’s for sure.

01:19:41.580 --> 01:19:44.890
The God that would use evolution is cruel,
wasteful, and retarded.

01:19:44.890 --> 01:19:47.310
It’s not a God you would want to pray to,
that’s for sure.

01:19:47.310 --> 01:19:50.800
We’ll cover more of that on video 7 of the
blue series of tapes back there.

01:19:50.800 --> 01:19:54.000
The psalmist said, “When I consider thy heavens....”

01:19:54.000 --> 01:19:57.890
By the way, heavens is plural; we get into
that more in video #2.

01:19:57.890 --> 01:20:01.500
He said, “when I consider.” Kids, you’d do
yourself a favor every once in a while to

01:20:01.500 --> 01:20:02.670
shut off that TV.

01:20:02.670 --> 01:20:07.270
Go outside, and consider the heavens. Go see
what God has done.

01:20:07.270 --> 01:20:10.640
The psalmist said, “While I was musing, the
fire burned.”

01:20:10.640 --> 01:20:13.910
The word muse means “think.” Think.

01:20:13.910 --> 01:20:17.050
The Bible uses that word twice. Think.

01:20:17.050 --> 01:20:20.250
Now, English is a pretty interesting language,
you know.

01:20:20.250 --> 01:20:23.920
A “theist” is a person who says he believes
in God.

01:20:23.920 --> 01:20:27.600
If you put the letter “a” in front of a word,
it means the opposite.

01:20:27.600 --> 01:20:31.900
So an “atheist” is a person who says he does
not believe in God.

01:20:31.900 --> 01:20:38.680
“Muse” means to think. So what is the opposite?
You got it.

01:20:38.680 --> 01:20:41.489
“Amuse” means literally, to not think.

01:20:41.489 --> 01:20:45.190
Did you know we’ve got entire parks where
you can pay money and go do that.

01:20:45.190 --> 01:20:50.010
They are called amusement parks - a place
to not think.

01:20:50.010 --> 01:20:54.380
He said, “When I consider thy heavens, the
work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars,

01:20:54.380 --> 01:20:57.969
which thou hast ordained: What is man that
thou art mindful of him?”

01:20:57.969 --> 01:21:02.610
You know what’s interesting? A person that
spends his time considering what God has done

01:21:02.610 --> 01:21:05.420
is just not impressed with what man can do.

01:21:05.420 --> 01:21:10.170
And some of you parents ought to go home and
look at your kid’s bedroom. And if what you

01:21:10.170 --> 01:21:17.130
see all over the wall are sports heroes (you
listen carefully), you are training your kids

01:21:17.130 --> 01:21:22.410
to meditate on what man can do, not on what
God can do.

01:21:22.410 --> 01:21:25.969
And his brain, his thinking process, is going
to be about that deep.

01:21:25.969 --> 01:21:32.969
You know the depth of his understanding is
“Wow, he threw the ball through the hoop.”

01:21:34.060 --> 01:21:38.800
Who’s going to care in a thousand years? Who’s
going to care in five years?

01:21:38.800 --> 01:21:43.590
Does anybody know who won the Stupid Bowl,
err, Super Bowl five years ago?

01:21:43.590 --> 01:21:49.000
Does anybody care? It doesn’t matter, does
it?

01:21:49.000 --> 01:21:51.960
All those grown men out there fighting over
that one ball, and they can all afford to

01:21:51.960 --> 01:21:53.090
go buy their own.

01:21:53.090 --> 01:21:59.100
No, I mean it’s not sinful. It is just dumb
to pay a guy five million dollars to carry

01:21:59.100 --> 01:22:05.280
a pig bladder down a cow pasture through some
plumbing.

01:22:05.280 --> 01:22:06.750
It’s not going to last, folks.

01:22:06.750 --> 01:22:10.110
Think about things that are going to last
forever, like what God has done. Meditate

01:22:10.110 --> 01:22:10.620
on that.

01:22:10.620 --> 01:22:13.150
The Bible says, “Speak to the earth and it
shall teach thee.”

01:22:13.150 --> 01:22:17.469
The earth is like a big magnet. Now magnets
always lose their strength.

01:22:17.469 --> 01:22:22.190
The earth’s magnet has lost 10% of its strength
in the last 150 years.

01:22:22.190 --> 01:22:28.050
That means, of course, that it used to be
stronger- since it’s getting weaker.

01:22:28.050 --> 01:22:33.070
And it cannot be more than 25,000 years old.
Just the earth’s magnetic-field decline limits

01:22:33.070 --> 01:22:34.620
it to less than 25,000 years.

01:22:34.620 --> 01:22:40.730
And that also means carbon dating can’t work.
Give you a few examples here: the lower leg

01:22:40.730 --> 01:22:47.730
of a mammoth dated 15,000 years old, but the
skin was 21,000.

01:22:48.340 --> 01:22:54.590
One part of a mammoth is 29,000 years and
another part, 44,000. You talk about a slow

01:22:54.590 --> 01:22:56.430
birth.

01:22:56.430 --> 01:23:02.320
We cover more on Carbon-14 dating in video
#7 and all the serious problems with that.

01:23:02.320 --> 01:23:05.180
The textbooks will say, well, yes the magnetic
field is getting weaker, but that’s because

01:23:05.180 --> 01:23:05.750
it’s reversing.

01:23:05.750 --> 01:23:07.949
It’s a pattern of reversals.

01:23:07.949 --> 01:23:12.050
No, there are no magnetic reversals in the
magnetic field at the bottom of the ocean.

01:23:12.050 --> 01:23:16.070
We cover that in video #6. This is all a part
of another theory called: Pangaea.

01:23:16.070 --> 01:23:17.810
How many have ever heard of “Pangaea” before?

01:23:17.810 --> 01:23:20.030
That all the continents used to fit together.

01:23:20.030 --> 01:23:24.560
Well, I bet they didn’t tell you they shrank
Africa nearly 40% to make them fit, did they?

01:23:24.560 --> 01:23:28.130
Did they tell you they took out all of Mexico
and Central America?

01:23:28.130 --> 01:23:33.840
“Senor, que pasa donde esta Mexico, Panama,
Costa Rica and Guatemala?”

01:23:33.840 --> 01:23:37.940
And you know they don’t tell you what I think
ought to be obvious to a kindergartner.

01:23:37.940 --> 01:23:43.880
Did you know if you take the water out of
the oceans, you will notice there is dirt

01:23:43.880 --> 01:23:50.449
underneath. People say, “Hovind, do you think
the continents were ever connected?”

01:23:50.449 --> 01:23:53.940
I say, “What do you mean? They are still connected.”

01:23:53.940 --> 01:23:58.330
I mean, like right now; it is just the low
places are full of water.

01:23:58.330 --> 01:24:01.380
What do you mean “were they connected?” Hello!
They are still connected.

01:24:01.380 --> 01:24:05.770
What a dumb theory! We cover more of that
in video #6 about Pangaea, in what’s called

01:24:05.770 --> 01:24:07.000
“The Hovind Theory.”

01:24:07.000 --> 01:24:10.480
The earth is spinning about 1,000 miles per
hour at the equator. But the earth is slowing

01:24:10.480 --> 01:24:11.250
down.

01:24:11.250 --> 01:24:16.130
The earth actually slows down about a thousandth
of a second every day.

01:24:16.130 --> 01:24:21.650
The earth slows down. “Astronomy Magazine”
ran an article in 1992.

01:24:21.650 --> 01:24:27.860
They said, “Earth’s rotation is slowing down.
... June will be one second longer than normal.”

01:24:27.860 --> 01:24:32.500
We will have a leap second. Leap second?

01:24:32.500 --> 01:24:37.310
Yes, they have to have a leap second about
every year to year and a half, because the

01:24:37.310 --> 01:24:38.760
earth is slowing down.

01:24:38.760 --> 01:24:43.820
Now kids, this is going to be complicated,
so listen carefully.

01:24:43.820 --> 01:24:48.980
The earth is spinning, but it is slowing down

01:24:48.980 --> 01:24:55.980
So that means that it used to be going faster.

01:24:56.270 --> 01:25:02.440
How many can figure this out with no help
at all?

01:25:02.440 --> 01:25:05.469
Well, if the earth is only 6,000 years old,
this is not a problem.

01:25:05.469 --> 01:25:09.710
I mean, it was going a little faster; Adam
wouldn’t notice. He didn’t have a watch anyway.

01:25:09.710 --> 01:25:15.460
Some of the guys would like me to believe
that the earth is billions of years old.

01:25:15.460 --> 01:25:18.250
Man, if you go back billions of years, you
are going to have a problem.

01:25:18.250 --> 01:25:20.620
The earth would be spinning pretty quick.

01:25:20.620 --> 01:25:26.590
Get up; go to bed. Get up; go to bed. Get
up; go to bed. You’d never get anything done.

01:25:26.590 --> 01:25:29.690
Centrifugal force would have been enormous.
Man, the winds would have been 5,000 miles

01:25:29.690 --> 01:25:32.449
an hour from the Coriolis effect.

01:25:32.449 --> 01:25:35.340
And you want me to believe the dinosaurs lived
millions of years ago?

01:25:35.340 --> 01:25:42.340
I know what happened to them. They got blown
off! No, they did not live millions of years

01:25:42.630 --> 01:25:43.430
ago.

01:25:43.430 --> 01:25:45.980
The Sahara Desert has what is called a prevailing
wind pattern.

01:25:45.980 --> 01:25:50.969
The wind almost always blows the same way.
This creates a serious problem.

01:25:50.969 --> 01:25:56.320
The hot air comes off the desert, kills the
trees next door, and that area becomes desert.

01:25:56.320 --> 01:26:00.360
The process is called desertification. You
can read about it in an earth science book.

01:26:00.360 --> 01:26:05.460
The Sahara Desert has been studied very carefully.
They did a long study on this and said, You

01:26:05.460 --> 01:26:10.890
know what, folks, the Sahara Desert is probably
about 4,000 years old.

01:26:10.890 --> 01:26:15.340
That’s when it started growing. Egypt used
to be fertile land all over the place.

01:26:15.340 --> 01:26:20.590
OK, well then I have a question: If the earth
is millions of years old, why don’t we have

01:26:20.590 --> 01:26:22.770
a bigger desert someplace?

01:26:22.770 --> 01:26:27.010
Why would the biggest desert on planet earth
be less than 4,000 years old?

01:26:27.010 --> 01:26:30.270
Well, I have a theory about that. Now here’s
my theory.

01:26:30.270 --> 01:26:36.750
I believe about 6,000 years ago, God created
everything; 4,400 years ago there was a Flood.

01:26:36.750 --> 01:26:42.090
Now it’s pretty hard to have a desert under
a flood. You have got to admit that would

01:26:42.090 --> 01:26:43.440
be tough.

01:26:43.440 --> 01:26:46.880
So the desert couldn’t start growing until
the floodwater went down.

01:26:46.880 --> 01:26:51.790
So I predict, based on the Bible, the biggest
desert in the world would be less than 4,400

01:26:51.790 --> 01:26:55.180
years old.

01:26:55.180 --> 01:26:59.730
It is! Wow, maybe the Bible’s right.

01:26:59.730 --> 01:27:03.050
You know when they drill into the ground,
sometimes they hit oil?

01:27:03.050 --> 01:27:07.850
The oil is under incredible pressure in some
places, up to 20,000 (psi) pounds per square

01:27:07.850 --> 01:27:12.510
inch. It will come squirting up out of the
ground- 20,000 psi.

01:27:12.510 --> 01:27:16.380
Well, the guys who study the rocks on top
of the oil say,

01:27:16.380 --> 01:27:19.989
“You know, it just can’t handle that pressure
for more than about 10,000 years.”

01:27:19.989 --> 01:27:25.360
I know the weight of rock supplies pressure,
but the pressure in the well is greater than

01:27:25.360 --> 01:27:27.739
the weight of overburden.

01:27:27.739 --> 01:27:31.230
They say it should have cracked the rock and
leaked off in less than 10,000 years.

01:27:31.230 --> 01:27:37.449
OK, well then, I have got two questions: Where
did the oil come from? And why is it still

01:27:37.449 --> 01:27:38.969
under pressure?

01:27:38.969 --> 01:27:44.239
Well, most scientists agree that oil comes
from organisms that are squished.

01:27:44.239 --> 01:27:46.930
They’re changed by heat and pressure into
oil.

01:27:46.930 --> 01:27:53.250
They learned in 1971 how to make oil in 20
minutes in the laboratory. In Australia they’ve

01:27:53.250 --> 01:27:58.300
got a treatment plant that takes sewage sludge
and turns it into oil in 30 minutes.

01:27:58.300 --> 01:28:05.300
There is a factory in Texas that takes turkey
guts and pressurizes them, heats them, and

01:28:06.260 --> 01:28:07.280
turns them into oil.

01:28:07.280 --> 01:28:12.180
It said in the article: “We duplicated what
Mother Nature does, but what took Mother Nature

01:28:12.180 --> 01:28:15.739
millions of years to do, we do in about 30
minutes.”

01:28:15.739 --> 01:28:20.230
Sinclair has the dinosaur as their logo. They
say dinosaurs turned into oil.

01:28:20.230 --> 01:28:27.230
Yes, boys and girls, they mellowed for 80
million years. I don’t think so.

01:28:28.800 --> 01:28:30.850
I have a theory about the oil, and here is
my theory:

01:28:30.850 --> 01:28:37.790
I believe about 6,000 years ago, God created
everything; 4,400 years ago there was a Flood.

01:28:37.790 --> 01:28:41.699
In that Flood, lots of critters and people
drowned.

01:28:41.699 --> 01:28:44.750
They got buried by the gravel and the rocks
and the mud and the sand, and it got pretty

01:28:44.750 --> 01:28:45.980
heavy after a while.

01:28:45.980 --> 01:28:51.770
And it squished them into oil. So the oil’s
down there today from the people and animals

01:28:51.770 --> 01:28:57.160
that drowned in that Flood. Which means if
you stop to think about it, you drove over

01:28:57.160 --> 01:29:00.400
here tonight on some of your ancestors.

01:29:00.400 --> 01:29:06.930
Well, Noah’s uncles anyway. Next time you’re
at the gas station, pumping him in there,

01:29:06.930 --> 01:29:07.890
you can say,

01:29:07.890 --> 01:29:13.190
“Bye, Grandpa. You should have listened to
Noah; he told you it was going to rain!”

01:29:13.190 --> 01:29:18.770
Hovind, “We know you teach the earth is only
6,000 years old. We would like to prove to

01:29:18.770 --> 01:29:19.850
you, you’re wrong.”

01:29:19.850 --> 01:29:22.980
“Would you come with us, please?” I said,
“Sure!”

01:29:22.980 --> 01:29:27.650
They took me to this big freezer outside of
Denver, in Lakewood, Colorado.

01:29:27.650 --> 01:29:32.920
It’s the National Ice Core Laboratory. It
is -36 degrees F (-38C) in there.

01:29:32.920 --> 01:29:36.930
They put this big suit on me, big hat, big
gloves, big boots. I was freezing in five

01:29:36.930 --> 01:29:38.219
seconds when I walked in there.

01:29:38.219 --> 01:29:40.860
I have got Florida blood, you know? It is
real thin.

01:29:40.860 --> 01:29:44.489
They said, “Hovind, we go to Greenland and
we drill holes through the ice.”

01:29:44.489 --> 01:29:46.719
You know, a government job.

01:29:46.719 --> 01:29:50.110
“And, we take this big pipe and we drill it
down, and we bring this ice core out of the

01:29:50.110 --> 01:29:50.920
middle of the pipe.

01:29:50.920 --> 01:29:54.980
And we save it in this big freezer here in
Lakewood, Colorado.

01:29:54.980 --> 01:29:58.260
We have ten ice cores from stored in this
freezer.”

01:29:58.260 --> 01:30:01.610
They took me over and showed me one of the
ice cores. They said, “You see these rings

01:30:01.610 --> 01:30:03.750
on here, looks like tree rings - dark, light,
dark, light?”

01:30:03.750 --> 01:30:05.270
I said, “Oh yeah, it’s real clear.”

01:30:05.270 --> 01:30:10.489
They said, “Well what happens, in the summer,
the snow melts a little bit, and then it refreezes

01:30:10.489 --> 01:30:11.699
and makes clear ice.”

01:30:11.699 --> 01:30:15.489
(It shows up dark in the picture.)

01:30:15.489 --> 01:30:19.500
In the winter, the snow just packs. It doesn’t
get a chance to melt.

01:30:19.500 --> 01:30:21.310
And so it shows up as a white layer.

01:30:21.310 --> 01:30:25.219
So these layers represent: summer, winter,
summer, winter, summer, winter, summer, winter.

01:30:25.219 --> 01:30:30.420
And they said, Now, the deepest hole we’ve
ever drilled is 10,000 feet deep.

01:30:30.420 --> 01:30:35.790
And we counted these ice rings. And there
were 135,000 of them.

01:30:35.790 --> 01:30:39.680
And now you’re going around telling everybody
the earth is 6,000 years old.

01:30:39.680 --> 01:30:44.390
We can prove it is at least 135,000 years
old.

01:30:44.390 --> 01:30:47.330
I said, “Fellas, aren’t you assuming those
are annual rings?”

01:30:47.330 --> 01:30:50.360
See, they didn’t know about the Lost Squadron,
apparently.

01:30:50.360 --> 01:30:54.460
But, in World War II, some airplanes ran out
of gas and landed in Greenland. Has anybody

01:30:54.460 --> 01:30:57.989
ever heard of the Lost Squadron? OK. It’s
been on TV a bunch of times.

01:30:57.989 --> 01:31:02.510
Well, the airplanes got left there in 1942.

01:31:02.510 --> 01:31:04.750
They went on and fought the war, and everyone
forgot about them.

01:31:04.750 --> 01:31:09.320
Until a rich millionaire from Kentucky got
a brilliant idea. Go find those airplanes

01:31:09.320 --> 01:31:10.750
and bring them home.

01:31:10.750 --> 01:31:15.070
He went there looking for the airplanes. They
had to use ground-penetrating radar to penetrate

01:31:15.070 --> 01:31:18.680
the ice, and they located the planes.

01:31:18.680 --> 01:31:25.680
They melted this hole down to get to the P-38.
It was 263 feet below the surface. They melted

01:31:25.830 --> 01:31:29.300
this hole down to get down to the plane, took
the plane apart, and brought the pieces back

01:31:29.300 --> 01:31:31.160
through the hole.

01:31:31.160 --> 01:31:34.900
And they put them back together in Middlesboro,
Kentucky. Not too far from here.

01:31:34.900 --> 01:31:39.640
How far is Middlesboro from Knoxville, Kentucky?
Two hours, maybe?

01:31:39.640 --> 01:31:45.620
That’s where their home base is, Middlesboro.
The planes were in the ice for 48 years. They

01:31:45.620 --> 01:31:48.300
were 263 feet down. That’s 5 1/2 feet a year.

01:31:48.300 --> 01:31:55.040
Now, the deepest hole they’ve ever drilled
is 10,000 feet. You divide that in half and

01:31:55.040 --> 01:31:58.420
you get 1,800 years.

01:31:58.420 --> 01:32:01.400
I know deeper layers get squished - called
glacial firn.

01:32:01.400 --> 01:32:06.110
So really 4,000 years is plenty of time to
put all the ice at the north and south poles.

01:32:06.110 --> 01:32:09.650
So, why isn’t there more ice at the north
and south poles?

01:32:09.650 --> 01:32:15.600
I visited the museum and saw the guy who dug
out the airplane - his name is Bob Carden.

01:32:15.600 --> 01:32:21.030
I said, “Bob, when you went down to get to
that airplane, did you melt through ice rings?”

01:32:21.030 --> 01:32:23.969
He said, “Oh yeah, many hundreds of them.”

01:32:23.969 --> 01:32:30.710
I said, “Now wait a minute. How can there
be hundreds of ice rings in 48 years? Shouldn’t

01:32:30.710 --> 01:32:32.969
there be somewhere around 48?”

01:32:32.969 --> 01:32:39.969
He said, “Who told you those are annual layers?”
He said, “That doesn’t represent summer, winter,

01:32:41.860 --> 01:32:42.530
summer, winter.

01:32:42.530 --> 01:32:45.590
It represents warm, cold, warm, cold, warm,
cold.”

01:32:45.590 --> 01:32:50.230
You can get five of those in one week in Knoxville,
can’t you?

01:32:50.230 --> 01:32:57.230
But here’s a guy still calling them annual
layers. Now either he is ignorant, or he is

01:32:57.250 --> 01:32:57.670
lying.

01:32:57.670 --> 01:33:00.949
I hope he is just ignorant because ignorance
can be fixed.

01:33:00.949 --> 01:33:05.110
You see, stupid is forever, but ignorance
can be fixed. That is the difference by the

01:33:05.110 --> 01:33:06.110
way.

01:33:06.110 --> 01:33:10.610
A guy that works with the Eskimos said, “Brother
Hovind, I got 15 layers of snow on my car

01:33:10.610 --> 01:33:12.870
in 8 hours.

01:33:12.870 --> 01:33:16.930
Not 15 inches, 15 distinct layers of snow!”

01:33:16.930 --> 01:33:21.430
Your kids are going to be taught that each
of the layers of the earth is a different

01:33:21.430 --> 01:33:21.710
age.

01:33:21.710 --> 01:33:25.210
They’ve got Cenozoic, Mesozoic, Paleozoic,
Archaeozoic.

01:33:25.210 --> 01:33:28.170
Did you know the whole geologic column is
bologna?

01:33:28.170 --> 01:33:31.920
It doesn’t exist. We cover that on video #4.

01:33:31.920 --> 01:33:37.699
All over the world petrified trees are found
standing up connecting these rock layers.

01:33:37.699 --> 01:33:42.250
A petrified tree connecting a bunch of layers
- there can’t be millions of years difference

01:33:42.250 --> 01:33:44.110
in the age of the layers.

01:33:44.110 --> 01:33:47.449
One is at Cookville, Tennessee- not far from
here.

01:33:47.449 --> 01:33:51.400
The bottom is coalified; the center is petrified;
the top is coalified again.

01:33:51.400 --> 01:33:54.090
The tree trunk runs through two coal seams.

01:33:54.090 --> 01:33:58.750
We cover more of that in video #6 about coal
formation. Mount Saint Helens blew trees into

01:33:58.750 --> 01:33:59.430
Spirit Lake.

01:33:59.430 --> 01:34:02.160
They’re going to petrify very quickly - standing
up.

01:34:02.160 --> 01:34:06.120
That’s the way they sank to the bottom. They
got water logged. Wood petrifies quickly.

01:34:06.120 --> 01:34:07.890
Here is petrified firewood.

01:34:07.890 --> 01:34:12.969
Here is a petrified fish giving birth. It
does not take millions of years to give birth.

01:34:12.969 --> 01:34:16.370
Petrified cowboy boot with the cowboy’s leg
still in it.

01:34:16.370 --> 01:34:19.699
The article’s on the table down here called
“The Limestone Cowboy.”

01:34:19.699 --> 01:34:26.699
The Mississippi River is depositing sediments
at the rate of 80,000 tons every hour. 80,000

01:34:29.480 --> 01:34:34.580
tons of mud comes down and dumps off round
New Orleans and that delta is growing larger

01:34:34.580 --> 01:34:36.350
and larger.

01:34:36.350 --> 01:34:39.770
They studied the delta pretty carefully, and
they say it probably took 30,000 years to

01:34:39.770 --> 01:34:43.780
put all that mud out there in the delta.

01:34:43.780 --> 01:34:45.989
Well then, I have a question.

01:34:45.989 --> 01:34:49.710
If the earth is millions of years old, why
isn’t the whole Gulf of Mexico full of mud

01:34:49.710 --> 01:34:50.699
by now?

01:34:50.699 --> 01:34:56.000
They’ll say, “Hovind, it’s 30,000 years; that
proves the Bible is wrong. The Bible says

01:34:56.000 --> 01:35:01.440
6,000.” I know, but I have a theory about
that.

01:35:01.440 --> 01:35:08.440
I believe 6,000 years ago God made everything;
4,400 hundred years ago there was a Flood.

01:35:08.500 --> 01:35:15.320
As the floodwater was running off, about half
of that mud washed out there in 20 minutes.

01:35:15.320 --> 01:35:21.460
So it looks like it took 30,000 years to get
the mud out there. It took about 20 minutes

01:35:21.460 --> 01:35:23.540
and then 4,400 years since then.

01:35:23.540 --> 01:35:26.219
A friend of mine from Louisiana is a pastor
of a church.

01:35:26.219 --> 01:35:30.860
He said, “Brother Hovind, I used to work in
the oil field drilling in the Gulf of Mexico-

01:35:30.860 --> 01:35:32.320
drilling for oil.”

01:35:32.320 --> 01:35:37.750
He said, “We drilled down through 14,000 feet
of mud and hit trees 60 feet tall standing

01:35:37.750 --> 01:35:40.000
up.”

01:35:40.000 --> 01:35:44.570
60-foot vertical trees under 14,000 feet of
mud.

01:35:44.570 --> 01:35:45.710
More about that on video #6.

01:35:45.710 --> 01:35:48.610
Here is a picture of the oldest tree on the
planet.

01:35:48.610 --> 01:35:50.380
It’s called the Bristle cone pine.

01:35:50.380 --> 01:35:52.890
We have a piece of Bristle cone in our museum
in Pensacola.

01:35:52.890 --> 01:35:56.949
It’s only 30 inches in diameter and it’s 700
years old. You can count the rings with a

01:35:56.949 --> 01:35:57.900
magnifying glass.

01:35:57.900 --> 01:36:03.140
It grows real slow. Now tree-ring dating is
not an exact science.

01:36:03.140 --> 01:36:07.230
Trees can produce two rings a year or three
rings a year.

01:36:07.230 --> 01:36:10.830
And be very careful about tree-ring dating
with overlapping sequencing.

01:36:10.830 --> 01:36:13.040
We cover more on that during video #7, Q & A
time, if you would like.

01:36:13.040 --> 01:36:19.800
The oldest tree in the world, this textbook
says, is 4,300 years old, earth’s oldest organism.

01:36:19.800 --> 01:36:26.120
That’s a pretty old tree. But I’ve got a question.

01:36:26.120 --> 01:36:30.620
If the earth is millions of years old, why
don’t we have an older tree someplace?

01:36:30.620 --> 01:36:37.620
Why would the oldest tree be 4,300 years old?
I have a theory about that. Here’s my theory.

01:36:37.630 --> 01:36:43.630
I believe about 6,000 years ago God made everything;
4,400 years ago there was a Flood.

01:36:43.630 --> 01:36:49.940
And so I predict the oldest tree ought to
be somewhere around 4,300 years old. It is!

01:36:49.940 --> 01:36:51.000
Wow!

01:36:51.000 --> 01:36:55.190
Maybe that Bible is right! Maybe I ought to
read that thing and believe it.

01:36:55.190 --> 01:36:58.630
Here is a picture of a coral reef. Did you
know that the largest reef in the world is

01:36:58.630 --> 01:37:00.510
in Australia?

01:37:00.510 --> 01:37:03.050
I had a call from a church in Brisbane one
time. They said, “Do you want to come preach

01:37:03.050 --> 01:37:04.260
over here in Australia?”

01:37:04.260 --> 01:37:10.910
I said I need to pray about this. (He said,
“Yes!”) I took my whole family over to Australia

01:37:10.910 --> 01:37:10.910
with me.

01:37:10.910 --> 01:37:15.640
My daughter and I got to go scuba diving at
the Great Barrier Reef. It was incredible!

01:37:15.640 --> 01:37:20.910
Some of the reef was destroyed during World
War II by ships and anchors and bombs and

01:37:20.910 --> 01:37:21.620
stuff like that.

01:37:21.620 --> 01:37:25.640
So the environmentalists went out there to
see how fast it grows back.

01:37:25.640 --> 01:37:32.640
They watched the reef grow for 20 years. (It
was a government project.)

01:37:36.989 --> 01:37:41.770
After watching it grow for 20 years, they
said the reef is less than 4,200 years old.

01:37:41.770 --> 01:37:47.030
OK. Well, than I have a question.

01:37:47.030 --> 01:37:51.719
If the earth is millions of years old, why
don’t we have a bigger reef someplace?

01:37:51.719 --> 01:37:58.640
Why on earth would the biggest reef be only
4,200 years old? I have a theory about that.

01:37:58.640 --> 01:38:03.300
I bet you know what it is, don’t you? Can
you figure it out by now? Here’s a picture

01:38:03.300 --> 01:38:04.750
of Niagara Falls.

01:38:04.750 --> 01:38:08.760
The textbook says, “Boys and girls, the rocky
ledge above Niagara Falls has been eroding

01:38:08.760 --> 01:38:10.340
for nearly 9,900 years.”

01:38:10.340 --> 01:38:15.370
Now how do they know that? Well, the rocks
are breaking off the edge.

01:38:15.370 --> 01:38:20.469
I mean, all waterfalls do that. They break
rocks off and the waterfall eats its way backwards.

01:38:20.469 --> 01:38:22.980
Flows one direction; erodes the other direction.

01:38:22.980 --> 01:38:27.650
Niagara Falls is moving back 4.7 feet a year.

01:38:27.650 --> 01:38:31.469
Charles Lyell went there in 1841 and said,
“Well, Niagara Falls is here. Obviously, it

01:38:31.469 --> 01:38:36.400
started up here at the cliff by Lewiston,
New York [moving back down the gully].”

01:38:36.400 --> 01:38:41.239
He said, “10,000 years worth of erosion.”
The people that lived there said, “Charlie,

01:38:41.239 --> 01:38:44.719
it erodes a whole lot faster than you think.

01:38:44.719 --> 01:38:49.080
One good rainstorm and there is a whole lot
of erosion takes place.” He figured three

01:38:49.080 --> 01:38:49.630
feet a year

01:38:49.630 --> 01:38:53.140
(purposely to make the Bible look wrong).

01:38:53.140 --> 01:38:55.630
He hated the Bible. We get into more about
him in video #4.

01:38:55.630 --> 01:38:59.290
Today Niagara Falls is way back there, split
over that island.

01:38:59.290 --> 01:39:04.640
There are actually two Niagara Falls: the
Canadian side and the American side.

01:39:04.640 --> 01:39:07.880
It has eroded back quite a ways just since
Charles Lyles’ time.

01:39:07.880 --> 01:39:14.880
The textbook says, “This gorge that the river
runs into is 7.5 miles long. A simple calculation

01:39:14.880 --> 01:39:19.429
shows it’s been 9,900 years.” Oh, it’s not
that simple.

01:39:19.429 --> 01:39:24.020
See Niagara Falls is right here. It started
up further north up by Lewiston.

01:39:24.020 --> 01:39:29.420
If the earth is millions of years old, why
hasn’t it eroded back to Lake Erie by now?

01:39:29.420 --> 01:39:36.420
Why is Niagara Falls right there? I have a
theory about that. Here is my theory.

01:39:36.699 --> 01:39:42.620
You see about 6,000 years ago, God made everything;
and 4,400 years ago there was a Flood.

01:39:42.620 --> 01:39:48.530
As the floodwater was running off, about half
of that creek washed out in 20 minutes.

01:39:48.530 --> 01:39:51.530
So it looks like it took 9,900 years. They
forgot the Flood.

01:39:51.530 --> 01:39:56.219
They also forgot to get the right number.
It should have been 8,400 had they used 4.7,

01:39:56.219 --> 01:39:58.130
but what do you expect?

01:39:58.130 --> 01:40:01.630
When it rains, 30% of the water runs into
the ocean,

01:40:01.630 --> 01:40:06.190
bringing with it mineral salts. The oceans
are getting saltier every day.

01:40:06.190 --> 01:40:12.540
Today the oceans are 3.6% salt. They could
have done that in less than 5,000 years.

01:40:12.540 --> 01:40:15.570
Question: Why aren’t the oceans saltier?

01:40:15.570 --> 01:40:22.570
Well, you see 6,000 years ago God made everything;
4,400 years ago there was a Flood.

01:40:23.940 --> 01:40:29.010
Now since the Flood’s been over, the oceans
have gradually gotten saltier.

01:40:29.010 --> 01:40:32.710
One atheist I debated said, “Hovind, can you
please tell me how the fresh-water fish survived

01:40:32.710 --> 01:40:33.770
the Flood?”

01:40:33.770 --> 01:40:40.140
I said, “Sir, aren’t you assuming the flood
was salt water.” He said, “The ocean is salt

01:40:40.140 --> 01:40:43.410
water.” I said, “It is - today.

01:40:43.410 --> 01:40:49.380
During the Flood it was probably mostly fresh
water and it has gradually gotten saltier.

01:40:49.380 --> 01:40:53.130
And today some animals have had to adapt to
salt water.

01:40:53.130 --> 01:40:56.890
And now we have fresh-water crocodiles, and
salt-water crocodiles, and they probably had

01:40:56.890 --> 01:41:03.469
a common ancestor.

01:41:03.469 --> 01:41:05.840
A crocodile.” He said, “That’s evolution.”
I said, “No, it’s not.”

01:41:05.840 --> 01:41:11.160
“Going from a fresh-water croc to a salt-water
croc is a minor change compared to your evolution

01:41:11.160 --> 01:41:16.920
story. You believe they changed from a rock
to a crocodile. Now, that’s a major change!”

01:41:16.920 --> 01:41:22.750
A friend of mine in Alabama raises fish and
said he took a fresh-water fish, Black Mollies.

01:41:22.750 --> 01:41:27.230
He slowly added salt to their aquarium. In
two weeks, they became salt-water fish.

01:41:27.230 --> 01:41:32.070
When he put them back in fresh water, they
died in 30 minutes.

01:41:32.070 --> 01:41:34.090
They can adapt to salt water, not a problem.

01:41:34.090 --> 01:41:37.980
How many have ever gone into a cave and the
guide said, “Don’t touch the formations; they

01:41:37.980 --> 01:41:41.239
take millions of years to form.” They’ve all
got the same speech, right?

01:41:41.239 --> 01:41:47.250
What’s the one in Kentucky? Mammoth Cave?
Or go to Carlsbad Caverns, and they say it

01:41:47.250 --> 01:41:48.780
took 250 million years.

01:41:48.780 --> 01:41:52.260
They did a study on these stalactites. And
one guy said, “You know, the fastest they

01:41:52.260 --> 01:41:57.590
can grow is 2.5 inches per thousand years.
That’s the maximum growth rate.” I don’t think

01:41:57.590 --> 01:42:01.510
so. Here are some 50-inch stalactites growing
under the Lincoln Memorial.

01:42:01.510 --> 01:42:07.360
They did that in 40 years. Here is a bat covered
up with flowstone before it could even rot.

01:42:07.360 --> 01:42:12.429
Here are 2-inch stalactites growing off a
refrigeration shed in Pensacola, Florida.

01:42:12.429 --> 01:42:16.699
Here is a guy in a building in Indiana built
just 40 years ago. It has huge cave formations

01:42:16.699 --> 01:42:19.530
in the basement of the building from water
leaking through the limestone.

01:42:19.530 --> 01:42:24.140
Here’s a mine that was shut down in Australia
for 55 years. When they opened it back up

01:42:24.140 --> 01:42:27.590
to check it out, there were already huge cave
formations in 55 years.

01:42:27.590 --> 01:42:34.120
Here is a pipe that was dripping for 7 years.
It made a 13-inch stalactite. I thought it

01:42:34.120 --> 01:42:39.650
was 2.5 inches per thousand years. It’s more
like 2 inches per year.

01:42:39.650 --> 01:42:43.850
They broke off the stalagmite that was under
it and gave it to me. It’s in my museum.

01:42:43.850 --> 01:42:49.620
Here is a parking garage built in 1997 in
Texas. It was making stalagmites on the students’

01:42:49.620 --> 01:42:51.120
cars parking under it.

01:42:51.120 --> 01:42:54.040
They had to put up a drip pan to catch the
water.

01:42:54.040 --> 01:42:59.179
A guy in Wyoming had a hot mineral spring
on his property in Thermopolis, Wyoming; so

01:42:59.179 --> 01:43:00.969
he stuck a pipe in the ground.

01:43:00.969 --> 01:43:05.050
The water came out the top of the pipe and
bubbled down the side of the top of the pipe.

01:43:05.050 --> 01:43:08.020
They had a little fountain. They called it
the Tepee Fountain.

01:43:08.020 --> 01:43:12.150
Well, the guy died. They left the pipe sticking
in the yard.

01:43:12.150 --> 01:43:16.590
As the pipe was there, it left behind mineral
deposits as the water evaporated.

01:43:16.590 --> 01:43:20.739
How many have seen these mineral deposits?
You get them on your sink up here.

01:43:20.739 --> 01:43:26.179
The guy died, and about 95 years later, the
pipe was still stuck in the ground. I went

01:43:26.179 --> 01:43:27.020
to see it.

01:43:27.020 --> 01:43:34.020
Here it is, back in 1998. That would take
some Lime A-way to scrub that thing clean,

01:43:34.320 --> 01:43:35.480
don’t you think?

01:43:35.480 --> 01:43:41.360
Yes, a little bit. The guy down the street
started his later. It’s not quite as big.

01:43:41.360 --> 01:43:48.340
You know, at the current rate of erosion,
the continents will erode flat in 14 million

01:43:48.340 --> 01:43:49.350
years?

01:43:49.350 --> 01:43:52.410
Why do they tell us that we’ve got fossils
that are 300 times older than that, still

01:43:52.410 --> 01:43:53.190
above sea level?

01:43:53.190 --> 01:43:55.190
They should have washed out to sea 300 times.

01:43:55.190 --> 01:43:59.880
All you’ve got to do is fly out west and look
at the erosion patterns, and you will say,

01:43:59.880 --> 01:44:02.290
“This place was destroyed by a flood.”

01:44:02.290 --> 01:44:04.300
The whole world was destroyed by a Flood.

01:44:04.300 --> 01:44:10.010
Just fly around like I do and look out the
window once in a while.

01:44:10.010 --> 01:44:15.170
The oldest languages in the world are kind
of interesting. “Origin of Major Writing Systems”

01:44:15.170 --> 01:44:19.210
from “National Geographic.” What do they say?

01:44:19.210 --> 01:44:26.210
Well, they say that the oldest writing systems
in the world started about 3,000 BC - 5,000

01:44:27.140 --> 01:44:27.780
years ago.

01:44:27.780 --> 01:44:34.780
The oldest writing systems. And the oldest
languages are modern, sophisticated, and complete.

01:44:35.370 --> 01:44:39.050
The Chinese said the year 2,000 was the year
4,700.

01:44:39.050 --> 01:44:44.219
They think they started their calendar with
the Flood. They called Noah, Phu Hi.

01:44:44.219 --> 01:44:50.489
The oldest recorded capital punishment was
3,800 years ago. The Hebrew calendar said

01:44:50.489 --> 01:44:53.400
the year 2000 was 5760.

01:44:53.400 --> 01:44:56.380
We know the Hebrew calendar was messed up
because a Rabbi purposely took some years

01:44:56.380 --> 01:44:59.239
out, to make it not match the prophecy to
fit Jesus.

01:44:59.239 --> 01:45:04.850
The Saxons had a genealogy going back to Adam.
The Danes and Norwegians had a king list going

01:45:04.850 --> 01:45:07.449
back to Noah.

01:45:07.449 --> 01:45:10.520
Don’t trust the Egyptian king list. It is
greatly exaggerated.

01:45:10.520 --> 01:45:13.199
See the work by Courville on that, in “The
Evolution Cruncher.”

01:45:13.199 --> 01:45:18.380
Why are the oldest reliable historical records
less than 6,000 years old?

01:45:18.380 --> 01:45:25.100
Well, I have a theory about that. I bet you
know what it is, don’t you?

01:45:25.100 --> 01:45:29.190
That Bible is absolutely right, folks. Absolutely
correct, scientifically.

01:45:29.190 --> 01:45:35.790
The evidence for a young earth is overwhelming.
Students aren’t taught that.

01:45:35.790 --> 01:45:40.449
Students are only shown the evidence for an
old earth. Remember the coins in the box?

01:45:40.449 --> 01:45:44.630
They’d better deal with the youngest ones.
Not the oldest ones.

01:45:44.630 --> 01:45:48.550
These books aren’t really science books anymore.
They are books about evolution.

01:45:48.550 --> 01:45:51.440
I think it’s part of a much bigger picture,
for a New World Order.

01:45:51.440 --> 01:45:55.699
You see, the guys that started this country
said, “We hold these truths to be self evident...

01:45:55.699 --> 01:46:02.699
All men are created equal, they are endowed
by their Creator with certain unalienable

01:46:05.830 --> 01:46:12.280
rights.”

01:46:12.280 --> 01:46:19.280
But did you know that 75% of kids from Christian
homes who go to public schools will reject

01:46:22.330 --> 01:46:24.699
the Christian faith after one year of college?

01:46:24.699 --> 01:46:28.660
That’s what happened to Crawford Toy.

01:46:28.660 --> 01:46:32.030
Most people have never heard of Crawford Toy,
but he was a very famous Southern Baptist

01:46:32.030 --> 01:46:34.989
seminary professor.

01:46:34.989 --> 01:46:40.179
He almost married a girl named Lottie Moon.
Has anybody ever heard of Lottie Moon?

01:46:40.179 --> 01:46:43.679
You know, you guys have the Lottie Moon offering
every Christmas. She was a great missionary

01:46:43.679 --> 01:46:44.670
to China.

01:46:44.670 --> 01:46:50.070
Crawford Toy, after the Civil War, went to
Europe and learned about evolution.

01:46:50.070 --> 01:46:54.719
He sucked it in, and believed it. He became
an evolutionist.

01:46:54.719 --> 01:46:57.739
Crawford came back to his Bible class and
said, “You know, the Bible intends to teach

01:46:57.739 --> 01:46:59.600
a plain six-day creation.

01:46:59.600 --> 01:47:05.500
The Bible is simply in error at that point.”

01:47:05.500 --> 01:47:08.510
The Bible is in error?! Now Crawford, hold
on!

01:47:08.510 --> 01:47:14.610
Maybe your theory is in error and maybe you
got brainwashed. It’s very easy to get brainwashed.

01:47:14.610 --> 01:47:20.080
I am going to try to brainwash the whole crowd,
and then we are going to quit and go home.

01:47:20.080 --> 01:47:23.640
Tomorrow we’ll talk about the Garden of Eden.
What was that like? And why did they live

01:47:23.640 --> 01:47:24.560
to be 900?

01:47:24.560 --> 01:47:27.620
But first, I want to try to brainwash everybody.
Here’s what’s going to happen.

01:47:27.620 --> 01:47:33.830
I am going to tell you a little story. As
I tell the story, I will brainwash you.

01:47:33.830 --> 01:47:37.239
Maybe you’ve never been brainwashed before.
It’s a harmless procedure. Don’t worry about

01:47:37.239 --> 01:47:37.969
it.

01:47:37.969 --> 01:47:43.280
When I am done telling the story, I will ask
you two simple questions about the story.

01:47:43.280 --> 01:47:47.090
If you know the answer, I just want you to
raise your hand.

01:47:47.090 --> 01:47:51.699
If you don’t know the answer, it will be because
you have been successfully brainwashed.

01:47:51.699 --> 01:47:58.699
Now pay attention: here goes the story. Once
upon a time, a man left home, jogging.

01:47:59.530 --> 01:48:04.840
He jogged a little ways and turned left. He
jogged a little ways and turned left.

01:48:04.840 --> 01:48:08.710
He jogged a little ways, turned left, and
jogged back home.

01:48:08.710 --> 01:48:14.080
As he was jogging home, he noticed two masked
men waiting for him at home.

01:48:14.080 --> 01:48:18.219
Who were the masked men? And why did he leave
home jogging?

01:48:18.219 --> 01:48:22.449
If you know, raise your hand, but don’t say
it out loud. There are about five or six.

01:48:22.449 --> 01:48:28.110
The rest of you, pay attention, we are going
to try it again.

01:48:28.110 --> 01:48:32.710
Once upon a time, a man left home jogging.
He jogged a little ways and turned left.

01:48:32.710 --> 01:48:37.850
I’ll give you a hint - that’s important. He
jogged a little ways and turned left.

01:48:37.850 --> 01:48:41.719
He jogged a little ways, turned left, and
jogged back home.

01:48:41.719 --> 01:48:45.570
As he was jogging home, he noticed two masked
men waiting for him at home.

01:48:45.570 --> 01:48:50.469
Who were the masked men? And why did he leave
home jogging?

01:48:50.469 --> 01:48:53.820
Anybody new figure it out? ...Two more.

01:48:53.820 --> 01:48:58.820
The rest of you, pay attention. We are going
to try it one more time.

01:48:58.820 --> 01:49:02.679
But now I am going to un-brainwash you.

01:49:02.679 --> 01:49:08.130
See, you didn’t realize it, but I had you
brainwashed in the first three seconds.

01:49:08.130 --> 01:49:13.170
I am going to un-brainwash all of you now,
just by showing you a couple of pictures.

01:49:13.170 --> 01:49:17.310
I’ll tell the same story word for word, but
watch the pictures.

01:49:17.310 --> 01:49:19.860
You will feel yourself get un-brainwashed.

01:49:19.860 --> 01:49:24.370
It’s the coolest feeling. Are you ready? Here
goes.

01:49:24.370 --> 01:49:31.310
Once upon a time, a man left home jogging.
He jogged a little ways and turned left.

01:49:31.310 --> 01:49:35.850
He jogged a little ways and turned left. He
jogged a little ways, turned left, and jogged

01:49:35.850 --> 01:49:37.260
back home.

01:49:37.260 --> 01:49:42.510
As he was jogging home, he noticed two masked
men waiting for him at home.

01:49:42.510 --> 01:49:46.620
Who were the masked men? The catcher and the
umpire!

01:49:46.620 --> 01:49:53.260
You say, “Brother Hovind, is it that easy
to get brainwashed?” Oh yeah!

01:49:53.260 --> 01:49:57.690
You see, as soon as I said, “A man left home...”

01:49:57.690 --> 01:50:02.030
You started thinking about a house. And you
were off track.

01:50:02.030 --> 01:50:05.750
And once you get off track, it’s pretty tough
to get back on.

01:50:05.750 --> 01:50:09.810
Would you like to see how kids get brainwashed
in your school system by the millions every

01:50:09.810 --> 01:50:11.560
year?

01:50:11.560 --> 01:50:15.310
Millions of kids in America, every single
year, get brainwashed. And it’s so simple

01:50:15.310 --> 01:50:16.489
how they do it.

01:50:16.489 --> 01:50:20.580
They put the kid in kindergarten; he can’t
even read yet.

01:50:20.580 --> 01:50:26.679
And they give him a book like this: “I Can
Read About Dinosaurs.”

01:50:26.679 --> 01:50:31.330
Would anybody like to just take a wild guess
at what the first sentence in the book says?

01:50:31.330 --> 01:50:35.100
“Millions of years ago....”

01:50:35.100 --> 01:50:40.640
And that kid’s being thrown off track in the
first five seconds.

01:50:40.640 --> 01:50:46.610
How many kids are being taught that in your
town? Like all of them. That’s calling Jesus

01:50:46.610 --> 01:50:47.640
a liar.

01:50:47.640 --> 01:50:52.870
Did dinosaurs live millions of years ago?
Dr. Seuss even says it, “Millions of years

01:50:52.870 --> 01:50:54.710
before you were born.”

01:50:54.710 --> 01:50:58.739
Jesus said the creation of Adam was the beginning.

01:50:58.739 --> 01:51:03.750
Somebody’s wrong, folks! Now wait a minute,
the Bible says before the Flood came, they

01:51:03.750 --> 01:51:06.040
lived to be 900 years old.

01:51:06.040 --> 01:51:13.040
How is that possible? Oh, we’ll cover that
in seminar part #2 tomorrow. What about the

01:51:13.480 --> 01:51:13.980
Flood?

01:51:13.980 --> 01:51:18.280
Well, that’s covered in video #6. And what
about dinosaurs? Well, that’s covered on video

01:51:18.280 --> 01:51:18.610
#3.

01:51:18.610 --> 01:51:22.640
But listen, you are going to be told in school
you started like a slime and you slowly became

01:51:22.640 --> 01:51:26.000
a human. You be careful, because that philosophy
will spoil you.

01:51:26.000 --> 01:51:31.460
Jesus said, “Beware lest any man spoil you
through philosophy and vain deceit, after

01:51:31.460 --> 01:51:35.350
the tradition of men, after the rudiments
of the world, and not after Christ.”

01:51:35.350 --> 01:51:39.590
Hey, if a child goes 12 to 16 years to school
in your town, how is he going to view the

01:51:39.590 --> 01:51:42.060
world?

01:51:42.060 --> 01:51:44.790
Probably as an evolutionist.

01:51:44.790 --> 01:51:50.280
If the Bible is right about the beginning,
maybe it’s right about the end. Let’s summarize

01:51:50.280 --> 01:51:51.580
here.

01:51:51.580 --> 01:51:56.159
God made the world. He owns it. He makes the
rules. And we are all guilty of breaking His

01:51:56.159 --> 01:51:57.640
rules.

01:51:57.640 --> 01:51:59.420
Everyone of us. Let me show you. Here are
the Ten Commandments.

01:51:59.420 --> 01:52:05.790
He told us, “Thou shall not bear false witness.”
(Don’t lie.) How many of you have ever told

01:52:05.790 --> 01:52:09.100
a lie in your life?

01:52:09.100 --> 01:52:12.640
Put your hand up, or you’re telling another
one if you don’t!

01:52:12.640 --> 01:52:17.210
“Thou shalt not steal.” How many ever stole
something?

01:52:17.210 --> 01:52:22.850
Come on, you already told me you are a liar.
Put your hand up. (Did your hand go up, there,

01:52:22.850 --> 01:52:24.440
brother? Put it up.)

01:52:24.440 --> 01:52:28.120
So far, we know we’re all a bunch of lying
thieves, right?

01:52:28.120 --> 01:52:31.770
Do you want to read the whole list and see
how we are doing? We’d better stop right there.

01:52:31.770 --> 01:52:35.310
There is no question, we are guilty. And we
are going to be punished.

01:52:35.310 --> 01:52:39.090
God is a righteous judge. He cannot look upon
sin, and we are going to be punished.

01:52:39.090 --> 01:52:44.199
Or, you need to find a substitute. That’s
where Jesus comes in.

01:52:44.199 --> 01:52:46.190
He wants to pay for your sins.

01:52:46.190 --> 01:52:49.679
Thirty-six years ago, I told him he could
pay for mine. I asked him to forgive me and

01:52:49.679 --> 01:52:50.570
save me.

01:52:50.570 --> 01:52:56.550
Hey, if you died today, where would you go?
Smoking or non-smoking?

01:52:56.550 --> 01:53:01.850
Where are you going when you die?

01:53:01.850 --> 01:53:08.780
You ought to think about that, because you
are going to be dead for a really long time.

01:53:08.780 --> 01:53:13.090
All you get in this life is a little bitty
dash between two dates. I am going to die

01:53:13.090 --> 01:53:13.600
someday.

01:53:13.600 --> 01:53:19.409
I am going to try to make it the last thing
I do, but it’s going to happen. It could happen

01:53:19.409 --> 01:53:20.550
today.

01:53:20.550 --> 01:53:25.060
Have you seen the way they drive around Knoxville,
Tennessee?

01:53:25.060 --> 01:53:26.969
You have got some certified rednecks out there,
folks.

01:53:26.969 --> 01:53:32.310
And you could get killed on the way home tonight.
Where are you going when you die?

01:53:32.310 --> 01:53:37.179
If you are not sure you are saved, why don’t
you ask the Lord to forgive you and save you.

01:53:37.179 --> 01:53:41.140
And if you are saved, what on earth are you
doing for Heaven’s sake?

01:53:41.140 --> 01:53:45.219
Everybody ought to find something to do for
the Lord. There is a war going on; find something

01:53:45.219 --> 01:53:45.750
to do.

01:53:45.750 --> 01:53:50.280
Get busy. Win souls. Be a Sunday school teacher,
bus driver; do something for God with your

01:53:50.280 --> 01:53:50.530
life.

01:53:50.420 --> 01:53:53.640
If we can help, that is what our materials
are for. There’s a catalog on the back table

01:53:53.640 --> 01:53:54.130
back there.

01:53:54.130 --> 01:53:57.390
as well as our videos. We want to help strengthen
your faith in God’s Word.

01:53:57.390 --> 01:54:02.460
We hope you’ve enjoyed this series on creation,
evolution, and dinosaurs.

01:54:02.460 --> 01:54:06.100
Much more important, though, than knowing
all the truths and facts about science,

01:54:06.100 --> 01:54:08.260
is to know the truth about whether you’re
going to Heaven or not.

01:54:08.260 --> 01:54:11.000
If you’ve never trusted Christ as your Savior,

01:54:11.000 --> 01:54:13.890
Let me explain quickly what you need to do
to be able to go to Heaven.

01:54:13.890 --> 01:54:17.370
The Bible says we’re all sinners. We’ve all
broken God’s laws.

01:54:17.370 --> 01:54:22.350
We’ve disobeyed the Creator. We’ve done wicked
things; we’re sinners.

01:54:22.350 --> 01:54:26.590
Some are worse than others, at least in man’s
eyes, but we’ve all broken God’s laws.

01:54:26.590 --> 01:54:29.719
The Bible says you have to repent. The word
repent means “to turn.”

01:54:29.719 --> 01:54:33.800
It actually means two things, “to turn from
your sin, and to turn to God.”

01:54:33.800 --> 01:54:35.360
God’s looking for a change in your attitude.

01:54:35.360 --> 01:54:39.820
You say, “Lord, I don’t want to do wrong anymore;
I’m sorry I have offended You. I want to do

01:54:39.820 --> 01:54:40.320
right.”

01:54:40.320 --> 01:54:42.900
And you turn from sin and you turn to God.

01:54:42.900 --> 01:54:46.070
You say, “God, would you please forgive me,
would you save me?”

01:54:46.070 --> 01:54:48.750
The Bible says in Romans 3:23,

01:54:48.750 --> 01:54:54.159
“All have sinned and come short of the glory
of God.” You need to admit you’re a sinner.

01:54:54.159 --> 01:54:58.290
Number two, the Bible says in Romans 6:23,
“The wages of sin is death.”

01:54:58.290 --> 01:55:03.840
We deserve to die and go to hell because of
our sin, but Jesus died for you.

01:55:03.840 --> 01:55:06.530
He loves you. He wants you come to Heaven.

01:55:06.530 --> 01:55:10.949
Anybody that will ask Him for free salvation
God will give the gift of eternal life, it

01:55:10.949 --> 01:55:12.429
says in Romans 6:23.

01:55:12.429 --> 01:55:17.489
It’s a free gift. And it says in Romans 10:13,
“Whosoever shall call upon the name of the

01:55:17.489 --> 01:55:19.590
Lord shall be saved.”

01:55:19.590 --> 01:55:24.010
If you would just call and say, “Lord, I’m
a sinner. Please forgive me,” and ask Him,

01:55:24.010 --> 01:55:26.510
He will give you that free gift of eternal
life.

01:55:26.510 --> 01:55:29.840
Why don’t you just pray with me right now
and you could receive Christ as your Savior.

01:55:29.840 --> 01:55:33.370
There are no magic words; God’s looking at
your heart, but if you could say this and

01:55:33.370 --> 01:55:35.030
mean it, God would forgive you.

01:55:35.030 --> 01:55:40.980
Just say, “Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I’m
a sinner. I’ve broken Your laws. I’m sorry.

01:55:40.980 --> 01:55:42.620
Please forgive me.

01:55:42.620 --> 01:55:48.600
Please apply Your blood to my account. Forgive
my sins and take me to Heaven. In Jesus’ name,

01:55:48.600 --> 01:55:49.100
Amen.”

01:55:49.100 --> 01:55:52.940
The Bible says if you call upon the Lord,
you shall be saved.

01:55:52.940 --> 01:55:56.600
So if you’ve asked the Lord to save you, He
promised He’d save you. Now your job is to

01:55:56.600 --> 01:55:57.170
grow.

01:55:57.170 --> 01:56:00.770
Read your Bible, pray, get involved in a good
Bible-believing church, and begin to grow

01:56:00.770 --> 01:56:02.030
to be a good Christian.

01:56:02.030 --> 01:56:05.880
Thank you so much. Call or write if we can
be any help at all. We’d be glad to help.
