Each side in something like this always thinks they won. Debates like this are silly.

I tend to agree.

Many debates are structured on a format that both parties simply state their position and the viewers are left to decide who won.

Rarely is there a moment in which a counter party is forced to publically acquiesce.

I’m not sure about tonight’s debate format.

Ken Ham certainly knows this.

There were a lot of debates on this topic many years ago that allowed for direct questions.

As an example of how debates can be more productive.
