This is my issue with a "professed" scientist. You declare no proof will change your view on the matter (no pun) regardless of what it is. How can people call this sham a scientist? No scientist would ever say anything like this as noted by the response from Bill Nye.

Agreed. Ham (and many other Christians & theists) erroneously asserts that the infinite truth is, in fact, knowable to us finite beings. He compounds this error, by stating this knowledge can be gained by ignoring our five senses. His is simply the flip side to atheistic claims that the universe is bound by our five senses (i.e. - if a thing's existence in the universe cannot be discovered by our five senses, it does not exist in the universe. Thus, the universe itself is not infinite but, rather, is limited to the ever expanding human ability to see, hear, feel, taste or smell the universe).

Ham seems a nice enough person - as does Nye for that matter, but claims to ownership of any of the universe's "Ultimate Truths" is a sure path to destruction - either your own or that of others.

In the timeless (and contemptuous) words of Pontius Pilot ..."What is truth?"
