Hi VenomFangX,
You may have heard of my program. I have been conducting my talk program for almost a decade. We focus on religious history, social issues, science and more.
We are inviting you to make an appearance on 'Live with The Infidel Guy' to discuss, "Why you believe the Bible is Literally True."
We can schedule you sometime in the next coming weeks. It will be a Thursday or Friday at 8PM ET.
I hope you are interested and Thanks!

Considering his antics on youtube, I wish you'd reconsider your offer to him. He's someone who, IMO, should not be given any attention. I know that it's your show, and I know that you like bringing to light the utter morons (viz. shows with Hovind and Friel). But I firmly believe that giving this idiot a forum only emboldens him, rather than shames him into stopping. |

I for one will listen if this happens. For the lulz.
Besides, IG has had Kent Hovind on his show multiple times, and this isn't really any worse.
Here's my response to one of VFX's videos from back when he was just starting out:

Don't make too much fun of me. :/ |

Actually, it is worse because he's just a bastard child of Hovind who isn't even as unintentionally funny. |

Oh man this guy is brutal. Have you heard anything yet? That would be an entertaining show for sure.
He is one of the most SMUG Christians I've ever seen. |

Man, ...that guy is an idiot. He tries to sound intelligent but fails horribly in the face of someone who's heard it all before. IG, I wouldnt waste my time with him. It would only spread his ignorance and make him more popular, I mean really...he is nothing to even debunk. |

I think it's a great idea to get him on the show. He represents many such arrogant and ignorant teenagers, so confident in their beliefs, moving in small circles, not yet aware of all they do not know. |

With Hovind in jail, I guess this is the next "best" thing. |

Especially since he plagiarizes Hovind, in many cases, word for word. I would love an opportunity to call him on it. VenomFangX even said "many people ask me if I think there is intelligent life on other planets, I say, no, I don't think that there's a lot of intelligent life on THIS planet." This was something that Hovind said, word for word, in one of his seminars. Which means that VenomFangX is lying claiming that people asked him about aliens when it wasn't him.
He also vouches the authenticity of the Ica Stones (well-known forgeries), and puts them up as evidence that humans and dinosaurs coexisted, yet he has nothing to say on the advanced medical techniques and aliens also depicted on these stones.
I watch his videos and usually I can rebut everything he is saying without doing any research at all. His arguments are that paper-thin. |

The point would be to show everyone what an idiot he is.

lol that sounds like it could be used against him. He's not even answering the original question. Reminds me of Mike Huckabee saying "I don't believe we're evolving; we're devolving- just take a look at Congress" to get around the question of why he doesn't believe in evolution. |

He can't be any worse than that Baptist preacher who called in on the show about the Psychology of Mohammed. Geez, what an idiot. |

I agree, I watched his videos on YouTube and we are talking here about stupidity on a very basic level, no education and textbook cognitive dissonance.
Maybe if IG is using him as an example to represent that kind of population... |

Maybe it would be good if Reggie got him on the show and absolutely tore him apart. |

I guess that would serve some purpose, because he's just parroting fundy nonsense, they've got special on-line courses to incite other people to parrot such nonsense.
And trifecta combo of stupidity, no education and religious background(which gives emotional incentive) is channeling that nonsense everywhere like poison.
Then you have a situation of legitimate fakeness, fake debates, evolution-creationism, where uninformed people that are not a part of that trifecta perceive this to be a legitimate issues, because they are not aware how poor social infrastructure can create such processes to make people spew idiocy.
Now, I'm from Europe and I have to say that this is idiosyncratic to USA because of this-

So, from that angle it would make sense for IG to talk to this IDiot. |
