How you classified Rev. John Todd as an erudite is beyond my comprehension. His speech is babbling, his mannerisms are crude, and even his grammar and spelling ("blatently"???) are atrocious! I find the letter entirely laughable, and it baffles me how you define him as having "extensive learning" from THIS letter. He explains nothing, and makes very haphazard references to physical formulas, as if he is trying to prove some kind of point.
His factually-unsupported claims of superior scientific understanding, enshrined in his childish web of slander, do not indicate an extensive understanding of anything. I WOULD like to see him debate Kent Hovind, however, to see him put his money where his mouth is.
I got the chance to meet Kent Hovind, and he seemed in every way to be a great man. John Todd, as a Christian (Reverend, even!), should be ashamed of this malicious and harsh verbal attack on a morally upstanding citizen. Christians are supposed to rebuke one another in love and kindness.
Thanks for your time
