The whole sorry document is a massive slap in the face with a middle finger to everyone who actually put in the time and effort to work for their doctorate.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Especially since Hovind thinks he's pretty special because he bought a PhD. He insists upon being called "Dr." Hovind, and IIRC I read online where he even had his telephone listing as Dr. Hovind. Most PhD's don't list themselves as Dr. It's obviously nothing more than one huge appeal to authority, since "Dr. Hovind" got him into more speaking engagements in churches than he would have gotten as "Mr. Hovind." Too bad that anyone with enough cash and time to write a crappy "dissertation" could get the same PhD he got.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
