Breaking: Kent Hovind in Solitary
From Kent Hovind’s outfit, Creation Science Ministry’s Facebook page comes word that Kent is now in solitary:
Creation Science Evangelism Pleas pray for Dr. Hovind. We were just informed that he is solitary confinement. We are not sure why he is there and how long he must stay. He is need of your prayers. Thank you!
No word on how prayer is supposed to help, or what he did this time, though I’m sure we’ll be seeing a selectively-edited account of the events at some point.
(And just to keep the schadenfreude from getting out of control, I should add that solitary confinement is not something I’d wish on anyone.)
Update, 17:17: According to this thread at the JREF forums, this isn’t the first time Hovind has (been said to have been) placed in solitary. And given creationists’ penchant for repeating ancient and out-of-date information, for all I know this latest instance may be referring to something that happened three years ago.
