Aren't Science vs. Creation Debates......rather pointless?
#27
RE: Aren't Science vs. Creation Debates......rather pointless?
Evolution vs creationism debates are very important! We may all know that evolution is right, but we do need to know why it is right. The best way to learn about that is to hear someone challenge it. Most of us don't want to be believing in things without knowing why those things are true. I know that some theists showed up to watch Ham wipe the floor with Nye, and left shaken, and at some point I'm going to be that theist. Not with evolution, but maybe with something else I believed to be true. Putting beliefs through the test is fun, and at the very least it's entertaining and informative to know why I'm right.

Being right and not knowing why is about as useful as being wrong.
