Quote:Hovind's dissertation (or "book" as he likes to call it) rejects the formal, technical style expected of most mainstream Ph.D dissertations and other high-level academic work. Patriot Bible University does allow "a popular writing style" to be used. The opening lines of Hovind's dissertation demonstrate this quite suitably:
Hello, my name is Kent Hovind. I am a creation/science evangelist. I live in Pensacola, Florida. I have been a high school science teacher since 1976. I've been very active in the creation/evolution controversy for quite some time.
Many armchair commentators immediately came to the same inescapable conclusion: "This is not a dissertation, this is a letter to Santa."[3]
Although Hovind gives thanks to his typist, the document is riddled with spelling and grammatical errors which reflect poorly on his credentials as a high school teacher.
