A literal interpretation of Genesis which is part of the greater belief of Ken-Hamism is incompatible with our current scientific theories on how the Earth was formed. Note that incompatible doesn't designate that all aspects of science conflict with the Ken-Ham spin of making science fit into religion, but that the current theories formed of the creation of the earth along with evolution both conflict with his belief that dogs make dogs, horses make horses, and humans make humans. Again highlighting that he doesn't sign off on macro-evolutionary changes, but doesn't deny concepts like mutations and hereditary when it comes to life as we know it.
