Friday post

I enjoyed watching Bill Nye debunk many of the key points of Ken Ham's creationist model. The idea that earth is only 6000 years old which is preposterous from the start seems even more ridiculous after he explains many of the problems with such a theory. It was actually quite entertaining hearing Nye explain that under Ken Ham's model we should be discovering 19 new species a day as it really takes a small amount of common sense to see that Ken Ham's model is outdated and preposterous.  Ken Ham's defenses are still as juvenile as before , essentially reiterating the fact that god's word trumps all because Bill Nye wasn't around thousands of years ago , thus deeming him unfit to draw conclusions from it. At this point I would say the debate is pretty much over although I would like to see where Ken Ham takes the debate next after Nye's increasingly convincing arguments.
