Interestingly, this is a belief that Jack holds.<ref>https://youtu.be/3Hwl2vyT4fw</ref> According to the theology of retribution, Jacks [[The strokes|strokes]] are proof that Jack's indulgent life wasted in sin angers God, and are righteous marks of Devine punishment in response to Jacks gluttony and sloth. | Interestingly, this is a belief that Jack holds.<ref>https://youtu.be/3Hwl2vyT4fw</ref> According to the theology of retribution, Jacks [[The strokes|strokes]] are proof that Jack's indulgent life wasted in sin angers God, and are righteous marks of Devine punishment in response to Jacks gluttony and sloth. | ||

{{#evt: | Jack uploaded a video to his [[EYE TO EYE|Eye to Eye]] channel on 20 January 2020 in which he interviews Eric "Independent, temperamental, fundamental, chicken-eatin' Baptist - the dangerous kind" Hovind. Jack spends most of it just nodding along, as Eric decries the scientific community in favor of a American Baptist interpretation of history and the Bible. Jack never disagrees with anything Hovind says, and it can be reasonably assumed that Jack holds many of these beliefs himself.{{#evt: | ||

The first chapters of the Bible detail a story of creation. This singular fact is the entire basis of this belief system, and is the cudgel of logic Hovind uses to smash idiotic ideas such as radiometric dating, cosmic ray analysis, the Hubble constant and Geology. According to Hovind, the only valid piece of information in existence is the Bible, and therefore the only valid way to compute the age of the universe is to add up the ages of all people detailed in the Bible. Through this process, Hovind has determined the age of the universe to be about four to six-thousand years old. | The first chapters of the Bible detail a story of creation.
