Time after time theology fails as a moral guide, historical reference, or as a way of understanding the world but none of that makes any difference. When talking to any theist the only thing that matters is who is their god and why should I believe in it. If there isn't anything concrete in those answers there is nothing more to talk about.
Most of the time I get answers like god is love, or he is the god of the bible and I can assure you there there is no reason to believe those gods are real or true. In fact the god of the bible is the easiest to disprove.
However there has never been a compelling reason to believe in anyones god. Ever. So we are now at the point that there shouldn't be any more debates on whether or not god is good or evil of why it allows bad things to happen. Without a believable god to debate about the rest gust falls apart.

Bill Nye and Ken Ham
In the upcoming debate I feel that Bill could just show up and say "Ken you are an idiot" and he would have told more truth then Ken ever will in his lifetime and win the debate. I personally think it is a slam dunk. But then again I don't see how anyone could ever be as mentally shallow as to except creationism as anything but a joke. There are absolutely no facts to support any of the claims offered by creationists. Oh, excuse me. There is one fact. They have an old book of broken theology that says so. But that's it. So to win against people with so little water in the deep end of the pool will be hard. But any reasonable person will "see the light" of reason and side with evolution.
In fact I can't see a reason why any person that thinks about the subject honestly would deny the overwhelming evidence confirming evolution.
However the problem I have with the debate is that Ken will make money from it. He will then go to the editing room and remove any damaging facts that Bill brings up and sell videos of his great victory over an evolutionist.
I feel that to give any money to a snake oil salesman like Ken is a bad idea. And for that reason I feel that the debate should have been held in another place and it should be made free to everyone to view right away.
