The exhibits and tour guides at Dinosaur Adventure Land teach the Hovind Theory. The phrase "evolution" is used as a catch-all phrase for many theories that conflict with a literal six-day creation. True scientific viewpoints are encouraged where there are testable hypotheses. This is different from what evolutionists endorse. Kent teaches science from a perspective of observation and testable hypotheses from which we can derive facts. Evolutionary thought teaches that theory comes first and then one day we may have a testable fact.
