=== Evolution ===
Hovind contends that there is no evidence to support the theory of evolution. Hovind mischaracterizes the mutation clause in the theory of evolution, claiming it states that animals produce completely different offspring to their parents. In reality the theory of evolution states that the DNA from one generation to another will be largely unchanged, and mutation will only become apparent on timescales of at least 100,000 years. Hovind says that believing in the Big Bang/Evolution is wrong. He says that it is impossible to determine morality outside of the Bible and therefore non-Christians are people who refuse morality.
