OP...Kent Hovind is quite possibly the most convincing man I know when it comes to disproving evolution and aiding in the concept of creation. His stint in prison is for no other reason than a pissed off bunch of bearcats who were paid to quiet him. He found a loop hole in the tax system and exploited it...and propagated to other people to do the same thing. He denounced government funded religion, i.e. evolution, and he is passionate about a cause that is ultimately going to call on the U.S. to be judged by God.

All of these things put together will win you 10 years in federal prison...even though...if you sing, or shoot people, or sell drugs, or run criminal activity on the streets...you will get less time AND you will be capable of early release...neither of which occurred for Hovind.

Hovind’s biggest enemy is ignorant people who THINK they can argue with him. I’ve put the skeptics in front of his creation DVD’s and they walk away apologizing and admitting evolution is false. He is quite possibly the best thing that ever happened to creation scientific study. BUT…he has an attitude as well. That may have been part of what led to his arrest as well.
