Can you imagine what the 'examining committee' for that one must have looked like?

That center monkey must be what the pope looks like when reports of yet another priest molestation scandal comes in.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
That is so poorly written that I'm not entirely convinced that a grown man actually came up with that in a serious manner. The quality of his writing leaves open the possibility that his kid wrote that, or this is not so clever satire.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
I know many adults who would write just like that if they had to write a paper on something. I think it clearly shows why he went to Patriot University for a diploma instead of an actual accredited college.

I'll either do it in a British accent to amuse my kids, or in a Sarah Palin accent to amuse myself. I want you to do a video of you reading some of this in a Sarah Palin accent. That might even go viral on Youtube. 
At the very end of the document (of course I didn't read it all, its funny but melts you brain with concentrated insipid stupidity) My internet addled brain saw handwritten 101 as LOL.
LOL was certainly more apt.
Self-authenticating private evidence is useless, because it is indistinguishable from the illusion of it. ― Kel, Kelosophy Blog
If you’re going to watch tele, you should watch Scooby Doo. That show was so cool because every time there’s a church with a ghoul, or a ghost in a school. They looked beneath the mask and what was inside? The f**king janitor or the dude who runs the waterslide. Throughout history every mystery. Ever solved has turned out to be. Not Magic. ― Tim Minchin, Storm
I've often thought that Kent's "dissertation" would work as an Onion parody, but sometimes parodies just write themselves.

The real question is how he managed to get to the point in his education that he was actually able to submit this to ANY school as a serious dissertation.
'The difference between a Miracle and a Fact is exactly the difference between a mermaid and seal. It could not be expressed better.'
-- Samuel "Mark Twain" Clemens "I think that in the discussion of natural problems we ought to begin not with the scriptures, but with experiments, demonstrations, and observations". - Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) "In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else!

Wait, this guy has children? I remember watching a video of him speaking once - I felt like smacking him around the head to wipe that fake smart-ass smile off his face. But then I remember that someone just as stupid and ignorant as him probably taught him the bullshit he's pedalling now; he's just as much a victim as the unfortunate people whose minds he's keeping in an infantile state.
