isnt it a hoax though?

Yeah, that's why I called it a case of nationalism. The only scientists who wholeheartedly believed it to be authentic we're the British. America and France were rather skeptical.

Creationism. He was YEC and I was BioLogos. He had shown me a presentation that he had from another YEC, and he just skipped over it because we both knew it was fake and didn't see any point in bringing it up. It was a good day.
