(Note: not sure if this is the right place for this post)
Bob Enyart, a notorious YEC proponent of the hydroplate theory, a fanatical antivax/antimask COVID denier, and a bigot who would literally play Queen's "Another One Bites the Dust" while reading obituaries of AIDS victims, died of COVID-19 complications. The Friendly Atheist covers this, noting just how deep in the conspiracy theories Enyart was in their post on the matter. This guy was a jerk and I've long since lost any sympathy for people who die of COVID-19 when theyre the ones actively peddling the conspiracies. AronRa once had an excellent debate with Enyart in 2011 which first showed me how slippery this dude was. I would sometimes check in on his website over the years. Way back when in 2015, I called him out on RationalSkepticism for blatantly fabricating quotes from several papers to claim that dinosaurs had young, endogenous amino acids in their remains. Other things of his I source checked were almost always just as bad.
I'm sure Walt Brown will miss Bob's peddling of his hydroplate nonsense. Hopefully this convinces much of Enyart's congregation to take COVID seriously and get vaccinated.
