Anyone hear of this? Planning to watch?
It airs at 7 pm EST and is available live stream. I am hoping to watch it. My family has been reading through Answers In Genesis' books Answers 1,2, & 3. We are almost done.
I may have to buy the DVD for our church to use.

From the title description, if you are able to watch it then it then it must be a worth wile watch. |

Ah, well I encourage all to check out answersingenesis.org
The founder of AiG is Ken Ham an Australian who now lives in America. His ministry is that the Bible is true from the first verse and that a literal understanding of Genesis is foundational to all true theology.
Bill Nye is a popular scientist and entertainer in America. He is of similar popularity here as Richard Dawkins and Carl Sagan

And here is the recording for those who would like to watch this the very debate........ For some reason they recorded the count down to the start; Just drag the drag bar at the bottom of the video to the starting point which is approx 12 minutes in.

I watched this one live. Ham addressed several concerns I had with Nye's attitudes and condescension. But it is no surprise that a non-Christian acts in anyway graceless. I was instead impressed by how respectful he was given his incredulity of the young earth wordlview. I was pleased to see Ham be gracious even in the face of condescension.
Ham references the Answers books (1-4). Our family has read through 1-3 together in the mornings these past two years. They are an excellent resource as is Ham's website.

I have also read some of Ken Ham's books and I have several from his AIG people as well. Dr. Johnathan Sarfati is a very prolific writer on Biblical topics and of Young Earth Creation topics. I have met the man and he is very sincere. However, he does not tolerate the stupidity that guys like Bill Nye like to exhibit.
I watched the debate a long time ago. I too thought that Ken Ham was being quite gracious given the adversarial attitude that Nye exhibited. Nye kept referring to "Ken Ham's creation model". How many times was Ken Ham supposed to tell him that it ISN'T KEN HAM'S MODEL! It is a model that many people around the world agree makes a lot more sense than the evilution model.
