creationism? evolution? so, what's the dif?

Kent Hovind explained the Biblical account of Noah as follows: Noah's family and two of every "kind" of animal (including young dinosaurs) safely boarded the Ark before a minus 300° F (~-184°C) ice meteor came flying toward the earth and broke up in space. Some of the meteor fragments became rings and others caused the impact craters on the moon and some of the planets. The remaining ice fragments fell to the north and south poles of the earth.

He explains the fossils were created by billions of organisms that were washed together by the mass destruction of the worldwide flood, completely buried, and rapidly fossilized.

During the first few months of the flood, the dead animals and plants were buried, and became oil and coal, respectively. The last few months of the flood included geological instability, when the plates shifted. This period saw the formation of both ocean basins and mountain ranges and the resulting water run-off caused incredible erosion.

Hovind states that the Grand Canyon was formed in a couple of weeks during this time.

Hmmmmmmmm.... The Grand Canyon was made in a couple of weeks? After hearing that statement I no longer have the urge to argue with this guy and consider Kent as just one of God's little jokes. I mean, IF I were to attempt to prove evolution is correct, all I'd have to do is throw out the Adam and Eve thing about how Eve was Adams clone, made from his rib, and since Adam and Eve both had the same DNA, it stands to reason we all should be exact duplicates of them.

I tend to think Carl Sagan has a more elegant explanation of what may have happened.
