Ken Ham is debating Bill Nye

[Subduction Zone]

Have they restricted the debate to any specific topics? That would be a good idea because it helps shut down the Gish Gallop.

It seems from Bill Nye's response that it will more likely to be two combating lectures rather than an actual debate.

 

[USincognito]

So you say the two just interpret the bible differently and you choose one side that you think is lying.

So's Law!

Well, there no denying that he subcontracted that job out to some vastly inferior personnel...

Meaning anyone that breathes?

It is a categorical certainty that the creationists in this 'debate' are going to behave dishonestly. They don't know how to do anything else.

Thing is, Bill Nye isn't dumb, and he's dealt with them before. He has to know what to expect, so it will be interesting to see how he prepares for that inevitability.

One could argue that Jesus lost all His debates.

On the other hand, the collateral damage done to Satan's kingdom was phenomenal.

Mark 12:37 David therefore himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he then his son? And the common people heard him gladly.

Absolutely phenomenal, Satan's kingdom barely survived, then again it had to survive didn't it,
where would we all be without good old Satan? if he was gone who would take the blame?

Hold your bereavement until Satan is thrown into the bottomless pit for a thousand years, why don't you?

Better yet, submit yourself for collateral damage.

Don't you think knowing the outcome in advance takes the excitement out of it?

Only a thousand years? you mean Satan will eventually get out? fantasies you just got to love em.

AronRa chimes in, and says he will be there at the event:

Ken Ham vs Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill! - YouTube

I was thinking more specific, as you undoubtedly know.

Yeah, I was going to share this. His attitude reflects mine.

Only one who was utterly ignorant of the Gospels would do such a thing -- got anybody specific in mind, AV?

 

[AV1611VET]

No ... I'm excited now!

 

[AV1611VET]

Only a thousand years?

Ya ... during the Millennial Reign of Christ.

you mean Satan will eventually get out?

Oh, indeed.

And he's coming out with a vengeance!

fantasies you just got to love em.

What's fantasy to some is basic doctrine to others.

And yet it manages to be both.

Well, well, well ... look at this, all you guys who have rubbed [the late] Henry Only-A-Hydraulics-Engineer Morris' [lack of proper] credentials in our faces, when we quote something he said:

William Sanford "Bill" Nye (born November 27, 1955), popularly known as Bill Nye the Science Guy, is an American science educator, comedian, television host, actor, writer, and scientist who began his career as a mechanical engineer at Boeing.

A mechanical engineer at Boeing.

How typically ironic.

I guess the creation museum is going down the tubes [it had to happen because the exhibits never change]
it seems that God is good at everything except handling money, God always seems to needs more and more money.

Ken Ham is out to get donations again to try and stave off the inevitable bankruptcy of the myth museum,
they syphoned off millions of dollars from the Ark scam that is not now going ahead, who would have guessed?

Ken Ham might not have set his sights low enough this time.

The problem is that you have to be extra smart to pass off lies as truths. Morris was not that smart.
