exactly how I feel. I can't for the life of me take creationism seriously as a science - and having taught science, it's a complete mystery how I could even teach creationism. Like, chapter 1, the universe was created, and now it's here. The end. idk, seems ridiculous, and so far haven't heard anything very compelling from the creationist. I'm hoping he does say something though.

I actually genuinely appreciate the existence of religion, and think there is much of value to religious participation. but it's not an acceptable foundation for science.

Bill Nye, from what I gather from following him on twitter, is a legit and respected scientist, yes.

I will definitely watch this later, I hope Bill goes in.

Bags Bill Nye was an aeronautical engineer for Boeing before he created his show. He's a legitimate scientist. But uh-oh is correct - there were many opportunities where Bill could've gone for the jugular but didn't. He's a great ambassador for science, and came off as very respectful, but was at times too nice I think. Still easily won though imo.

I differ. Evolution takes more faith to believe than creation.
