Ken Ham banned from homeschooling convention.

Ken Ham, the man behind the Creation Museum and the future Ark Encounter amusement park, has been disinvited from a homeschool convention in Cincinnati next week because he made "ungodly, and mean-spirited" comments about another speaker, according to the convention's organizers.

Hilareous! Thank fuck he exported himself from Oz. I think I met him once, about 12 years ago, when a group of us evil skeptics went to a public creation seminar in a church in Adelaide. He tried to through us out, but the local minister intervened and said we should be allowed to stay as long as we didn't cause any trouble. Which we weren't.
Although it may look like a forum, this site is actually a crowd-sourced science project modelling the slow but inexorable heat death of the universe.

"Ungodly" comment? Tut tut. :nono:

Surely not from Ken. He was just hamming it up.
