I don't know about laughing at Ken Ham, I'd be more inclined to vomit all over him. Sorry but I genuinely find him the single most odiously repugnant man I have ever had the misfortune of seeing - and we have a town tramp who lives in a bin and only changed his trousers once when he'd filled up the pair he was wearing (which weren't exactly empty themselves when he first found them). It's not for the man himself that I react in this semi-digestatorial way but for the poison in his tongue.
There's an infamous video clip which I won't post but which is freely available if anyone has the stomach to look. He is indoctrinating a lecture hall full of young children and the clip shows him prompting them for the responses he wants. The exchange goes like this:
Ham: Have the scientists always been there?
Kids: No!
Ham: No... who's always been there?
Kids: God!
Ham: Who should you trust first, God or the scientists?
Kids: God!
Ham: God! And I want you to remember that!
Emphasis mine.

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.'
