The point is made to you. I would also allow that, for me, it is evidence enough of an intelligent designer, and more to the point, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

However, a FACT stands on its own.

This is the issue. Were I Nye I never would have taken the invitation, because in BOTH cases faith is required. Once you arrive at this, you look at the evidence on both sides, and there is so little supporting evolution that it isn’t worth exposing yourself.

Not necessarily. "Facts" have to also be collaborated and proven as well. "Facts" to you may not be facts to another. Four people who watch an accident may have four different accounts of the same accident, so "facts" are not always as solid as you might think. Even scientific "fact" may not be unanimous. "Circumstantial evidence" is considered oftentimes more reliable than eyewitness accounts.

What is solid is truth, but that is another story and another discussion.
