Jack Cuazzo went to Europe with an x-ray machine and actually x-rayed the original Neanderthal skulls He said "Several of them have the jaw one inch out of the socket just to make it look more apelike" When he showed them they tried to kill him. He had threats on his life for simply exposing the fraud of the Neanderthal.

Just because the jaw may have been positioned incorrectly (which is doubtful, given the source of this information is Hovind) does not mean that other information about the Neanderthal is incorrect.
That's like saying that just because Brontosaurus had the wrong head on its shoulders, that long-necked dinosaurs of any kind never existed.
"They" tried to kill him.
This is not your passive uneducated sunday sheep you are talking to here. I simply do not believe your story.
As to going to Europe with an Xray machine - there are such machines in Europe, you know. The mere statement belies what you are saying. Of course you cannot travel yourself to verify. But take my word for it. It is not my way to lie. Xray machines abound in Europe.
As to Neanderthal fraud, how come it is only those with a fundie agenda who are calling fraud? You want to evidence to made to fit you Bahble? Seems that way.
Ah, Kent, with your mystery stories and intrigue, and, well, nonsense, really. Now go back to the shower, and be sure to drop the soap.
This is just so hopeless I do not know where to begin. "Citation needed" may be a good start. "Please stop making stuff up and presenting it as fact" would be another.
I can confirm that we do have X-Ray machines here in Europe. Well, producing Herr Roentgen in the first place we would do wouldn't we.
Mind you, as an X-Ray machine is a product of science and all science is Wrong and Bad, why should we trust the evil X-Ray machine?
Perhaps the X-Rays tried to kill him. Who knows what Kent is on about.
Yes, all us europeans tried to kill jack.
Citation needed.
And you stupid fuck, why the fuck would we need a x-ray machine.. röntgen is german, you know?
Wait, wait, wait - the Neanderthals tried to kill him?
Oh, it's Hovind. 'Nuff said.
See, this proves that we can't trust the evil, dirty, liberal-slanted Wikipedia (or COMMIEpedia, amirite?) for anything. It says that the man's name is Cuozzo, not Cuazzo, and there is not a word about "them" trying to kill him. All evil commie-atheist-satanist lies!
Seriously though. How can creationists just keep bringing us wild accusations like this time after time after time without ANY collaborating evidence and just except us to believe it? Oh right, because they believe in the bible that way...
Oh, and by the way, Dr. Jack CuOzzo is a doctor in...... Dental Surgery. Admittedly, this does mean that he studied more biology than our dear Doctor Hovind, but still, not all that much.
One must wonder why the big name Creationist "scientists" have never studied biology exclusively.
"Jack Cuazzo went to Europe with an x-ray machine and actually x-rayed the original Neanderthal skulls."
Oh, Kent, he needn't have bothered. We have all the mod cons in Europe now. Indoor plumbing, furniture, electricity, spoons.
@Zabimaru
Apparently Dr Cuozzo has written a book called Buried Alive in which he tells a story of being chased around Paris (France) in a van by people in sports cars who are trying to shoot him as a result of his "discoveries" ,well that's what the Amazon book review says anyway .
About as believable as "Dr" Hovind though in my opinion.
@Lucretius: I knew about the book, but not so much about the contents. It seems really fun! Maybe I'll read it some day.
I really hope it's meant as fiction though... Because if it's not it's probably less of the "fun" and more of the "depressing untreated paranoid delusions".
Who tried to kill him?
Look, Kent, the Neanderthals portrayed in the Geico commercials are actors in prosthetics. It's a TV commercial, for fuck's sake!
"Yeah, because they dont have x-ray machines in Europe he had to take his own. "
Everyone knows that since gay marriage was allowed over there the continent has descended into a dark age of bloodshed and anarchy. Atleast thats what my pastor told me.
Kent perhaps if you didn't break the ninth commandment on such a regular basis, then you wouldn't currently be getting sodomized by your cellmate every night. Please stop making this shit up expecially when you are falsely accusing people (although not by name) of attemped murder. You also have a track record for such lies in the past with your claims that the smithsonian institute killed people to use their bones as evidence for evolution. These lies are even worse than the usual creotard crap you normally come out with.
@JDC1: Hovind probably believes, like a lot of his ilk, that Europe is an undeveloped wasteland. It's worth noting that of the 50 most livable cities on the latest Mercer Quality of Life Survey , 25 are in Europe and only 7 in the US (all in blue states, I might add).
Do either of these whackos ever actually narrow it down and say specifically WHO tried to kill him. If so, couldn't that be a case for the courts ?? Defamation of character or whatever ???
Okay, I admit it. I'm just desperate to see Hovind have to argue this kind of bullshit in a court of law, any way I can. Sort of how they got Al Capone on his taxes ... oh, on second thoughts, never mind.
Wait, someone tell me how a skull has a jawbone out of socket? Last I looked, the bottom jaw is usually laid next to the skull... as the "socket" is mostly soft tissue and prone to rotting away.
Are we basing proof of god on someone's inability to tighten wires securing skeletons together? Who's the big scientist now? Hell, who probably tugged on them a bit more...
It was said but I've got to say it again. Kent, my son..you do know Europe has x-ray machines? They also have potties, clothes and all the other stuff us Americans must have. They also have some serious architecture and food/drink to die for.
They are not barbarians. Moe-ron. When you get out of the slammer maybe you could go live there.
*apology to our European friends here* Maybe you guys can do something with him.
We bloody well have our own x-ray machines, Hovind. We also have the LHC, and inthe coming decades I predict we will surpass the USA in the science department, because we have less kooky religious idiots trying to steer everyone away from science. Now go get lubed up before bubba gets back from weight-training, and wants something to put his dick in.
@Barikada: "SENTRY GOIN' UP!"
@Paler_Face: Please do surpass us, maybe that'll give our schools the kick in the arse they need to teach more effectively.
There are excellent articles on Cuazzo over at Talkorigins and Pharyngula, please read them alongside his own BS. Basically, his 'Neanderthal bones' are just oddly shaped lumps of flint, one of them even has a sea-creature fossilized inside it.
"There are excellent articles on Cuazzo over at Talkorigins and Pharyngula, please read them alongside his own BS. Basically, his 'Neanderthal bones' are just oddly shaped lumps of flint, one of them even has a sea-creature fossilized inside it."
Yep, he's full of shit.
If this story is actually true *snickers* the museum employees were probably trying to keep him from fucking up/breaking the skulls.
And of course in his "Oh noes we is being persekyuted" mind, a little resistance = attempted murder.
"Ozzie - How did he get the x-ray machine through the x=ray machine at airport security?"
He divided by zero??
Don't you get it, people?! The Europeans are EVILutionists, so their X-ray machines are obviously rigged! If they weren't, they'd clearly show that EVILution is a Satanic lie!
"one inch"
That's how much wider your arsehole's gonna be when you leave prison, Kent m'boy. And with the way HIV is rampant among certain sections of the prison population in the US, coupled with the fact that rape is the national sport in American jails, frankly you're gonna be lucky to walk out of there & still be HIV-
And I bet the old lags & lifers there just LOVE your sparkling wit & repartee there!
Y'know, I avoid 'Reality TV' like the plague. I value my IQ too much to allow it to be eroded by that crap. However, if there were CCTV cameras in that prison, especially in all the areas where Kent Hovind was (including the showers), I'd watch THIS version of 'Big Brother' religiously! Just to see him getting violently buttsecksed by Bad Boy Bubba!
Damnit Kent, stop ripping off ideas from other fiction authors.
At least come up with your own original plots.
There's one thing that'll definitely need X-raying, Kentypoos - and it won't be a skull.
It'll be your abdomen, for your physician to check out the damage to your rectum, colon, and potentially your pelvis when you get out of prison!
Enjoy your prolapsed arsehole, Kent!

@Old Viking:
> The guy strapped an x-ray machine to his back and flew to Europe in order to x-ray a Neanderthal skull. Did no one have the courtesy to tell him this was silly?
We're too polite to interfere in someone else's business.
@Elphada:
> *apology to our European friends here* Maybe you guys can do something with him.
Only if we get to use the cricket bats.
Ah, the old "when you don't have evidence, pretend you lost it in a gun-play filled car chase through the streets of a foreign capital" trick.
Sorry, that was old even before the Bourne trilogy.
I don't want to shock you, Kenny, but we do have our own x-ray machines here in Europe. We even have MRIs and CAT scans. That was probably not the first time those Neanderthal skulls were x-rayed.
He was probably laughed out of town for bringing his own x-ray machine and for trying to disprove evidence using childish fairy tales. I googled a bit and he seems to think that Neanderthals were not humans; "Neanderthals, cavemen or humans" was the titel of a work of his. Duh! All the first human species were cavemen, idiot!
I wonder what he was doctor in, and where he got his doctorate...
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
