It's funny, I've read that most creationists will refuse to have written debates these days, instead preferring to have nothing but spoken debates. Why? Because it's easier for someone like Gish to shoot out 15 half truths in 60 seconds than it is for someone like Gould to correct them in 60 seconds. In a written arena, you can't effectively use the "shotgun" approach that Gish loves so much. Could be also that there is no money to be made in a written setting, eh? Don't you wonder how much Gish etal gets in a speaking engagement at a church?

Also, consider this. Ever wonder why there's never a debate offered by a Creationist speaker about the scientific evidence of creationism? They are always about the evils of Evolution. Why is that?

From the article:

But another type of evolutionary arrogance consists of their repeatedly professed amazement that anyone of intelligence could ever disagree with them.
