Re: The "debate" has already occurred

Just by being there, whether Nye does well or not, lends a veneer of legitimacy to Ham and creationism;
We should have a series of debates at similar venues - Disneyland, McDonalds. Maybe we could get Goofy to debate the Hamburglar.

Well, even Pat Robertson thinks Ham is bad, and wants him to SHUT UP.
I'm reminded of a parakeet fighting with his own reflection in the mirror.

Re: Transitional forms -- not

So you're expecting to find feline bones that aren't like today's felines but between them and what, fossil felines perhaps?
If the rapid-speciation-after-the-flood scenario was valid, how many generations would it take for "Ark-cats" to differentiate into house cats, lions, tigers, etc.? Wouldn't you expect to find fossil remains of intermediate generations? If so, how would you distinguish between an intermediate form in the Ark-cat-to-housecat lineage and an intermediate form in the evolutionary lineage?
It seems to me that if there was any evidence for your scenario it would actually be evidence for evolution.

Re: Faith proves John Adams was not a seer.

I meant it in the sense that the concepts were inherited from the Christian mindset of western civilization.
And much of that mindset is Catholic, derived from Greek.
