Ham-on-Nye debate pits atheists, creationists
Washington Post ^ | 1/30/14 | Kimberly Watson

Bill Nye may be “The Science Guy,” but Ken Ham is the “Answers in Genesis” man, and a debate between the two over the origins of life has nonbelievers and Christians wringing their hands.

Nye, host of a beloved television science series, and Ham, president of a creationist apologetics ministry, will meet at the Creation Museum, where Ham is also the president, on Feb. 4. In what some wags are calling “the Ham-on-Nye debate,” they will weigh this question: “Is creation a viable model of origins?”

In response to your suggestion:

The first Creationist book I read was ~ 1980.

It was a book of cynical misquotes and it even claimed that evolutionist falsifying their colleges past theories and claims was a reason it was not science, when that is why it is science compared to Creationism.

Clearly written for no-nothings.

I read a few more after that but it became pointless, they are not serious.

So please tell me of exactly what you’ve debunked in that book and what your credentials are [lie if you want to] b/c I specifically addressed one of your ‘debunking’ points yesterday where all you did basically was quote the arthor out of context - which any schoolyard brat can do but what does that really prove?

1) Hoax Book claims that existence of DNA and its weight is evidence of a unspecified Creation process over evo theories, when it is nothing more than evidence of itself and that someone named it.

2) Logical thinker who knows that light moves at a constant speed, which Creationists like Ham seemed to be ignorant of.

I already replied to item number 1 that you took completely out of context -why I oughta..., bang zoom to the moon...

When are you gonna start living up to your moniker and quit acting like them?

Item 2 not worthy of further discussion with you either.

OK,

Here's more cited ‘evidence of creation’ from your hoax book called ‘Compelling Evidence for Creation and the Flood: the Astronomical and Physical Sciences’ sections.

Each planet is unique.’

Unique??? I bet the know nothings in the audience who got their GEDs think this is a great suppressed scientific discovery.

Your book is a joke.
