Watch the debate.
For every question, Mr Ham told Mr. Nye that if he wanted all the answers to how old the earth was or information about Flood Geology all he had to do was read one Book.
Mr. Ham did not have to be there, because he has read about it from a book written by The One who was there.
It is as simple as that.
Do you understand the faith required by both evolutionists and Creationists ?
Do you understand that science and it’s standards are based on methods that science CAN”T explain ?
No, “science” isn’t “wrong”. And hammers aren’t “wrong”, either.
It’s a tool for examining the observable.
Please watch the debate.
In that debate at the Creation Museum, Mr. Ham pointed to several instances where scientists were wrong and if they were wrong before it is highly probable that they are wrong now.
It’s really funny that in conversations with liberals, you run into the same thing.
For some reason, they’re able to determine that some part of society was “wrong” in the past, but it just doesn’t occur to them that what they believe now might be determined to be wrong sometime in the future...
And Ham paid Nye his 30 pieces of silver because???? Could it be he needs some publicity, any publicity to generate interest in his failing museum? And is willing to pay someone to pollute the minds of children and corrupt their souls as you say?
Im sorry you feel that way but the age of the Earth has no bearing on my salvation. The Bible also describes man being formed out of dust - but does not discuss the staggering complexity and nanotechnology of the living cell, and the digitally-coded information content of DNA. I also will not deny DNA and claim it is really dust but I will marvel at Gods creation.
“I Alone”
it’s easier not to be wise
and measure these things by your brains
I sank into Eden with you
alone in the church by and by
I’ll read to you here, save your eyes
you’ll need them, your boat is at sea
your anchor is up, you’ve been swept away
and the greatest of teachers won’t hesitate
to leave you there, by yourself, chained to fate
I alone love you
I alone tempt you
I alone love you
fear is not the end of this!
it’s easier not to be great
and measure these things by your eyes
we long to be here by his resolve
alone in the church by and by
to cradle the baby in space
and leave you there by yourself chained to fate
oh, now, we took it back too far,
only love can save us now,
all these riddles that you burn
all come runnin’ back to you,
all these rhythms that you hide
only love can save us now,
all these riddles that you burn yeah, yeah, yeah

Out of all the things I don’t understand, those questions would be among them.
God wrote the Bible? Who knew?
The Creation Museum is not failing and will not fail, because the Truth never fails.
Did he provide any evidence showing creationism was right?
Since when did a belief in young Earth creationism become a deciding factor of whether one is a conservative or not?
As such, I'm not overly concerned about what various people speculate as to the actual age of the earth. It's a distraction from what really matters.
A testable idea. If the museum fails sometime in the future then it is wrong?
The truth may never fail. But Ham's sideshow needs money and attendance to keep the doors open. He seems to be having problems attracting it.
Seems you made that connection, not I...
I was just observing that the same blindness as to the mutability of what is “settled” or “known” applies to those who rely on “science” as the root of their epistemology as it does to those who rely on the zeitgeist as the root of their epistemology.
“where scientists were wrong and if they were wrong before it is highly probable that they are wrong now.”
You mean like the inquisitions whereby science was told to shut up that the Earth is the center of the universe, that there couldn’t possibly be a vacuum, that stars are not other solar systems? You mean religious ignorance like that?
Evidence is everywhere. You just need faith to see it. That’s just logic.
