Unfortunately this debate will be used by both sides to denigrate the views they disagree with for years to come. All people of Faith will have the weak scientific arguments of this creation museum guy thrown in their face, and those who believe that evolution is part of God’s Creation will have Bill Nye’s stumbles endlessly dragged out. I can’t think of two worse guys to have a debate like this. They are leaving out the views of the huge segment of us who hold a deep Faith in God while accepting that the Universe is billions of years old.
Ken Ham and his fellow young-earthers have done more to drive thoughtful people away from Christianity than Dawkins, Dennett, Harris, Hitchens etc. could possibly have dreamed of doing.
True, they are two poor spokesmen. It’s going to be Richard Dawkins vs Kirk Cameron, all over again.
There’s a saying I’ve heard about two bald men fighting over a comb.
