As to the debate, I don't see how either won, but point to Bill for pointing out that Ham's system can't predict anything. (I actually enjoyed that observation, myself.)

Both of them were, IMO, respectful of one another and of the audience. I was encouraged at how civilized it all was, given the emotions behind the reason everyone was there.

Being a devout Christian myself, I enjoy debates about the whole young earth/old earth issue. I am an old-earther myself - which means neither side is happy with me - and I enjoy that!
