Bill Nye and Ken Ham

bill nye ken ham


Creationism has become an issue that has many school distracts debating on the viability of this so called model. Despite the fact that evidence grows every year and it is accepted by most of the world as fact, there are still a few who think it is completely wrong and that they are right and should present a religious arguments into science classrooms. While creationism has been around for a bit of time now the level of impact it has had when it comes to the education system in the United States have gone up to new levels. The debate posted below shows how much of a "fighting a brick wall" kind of fight this really is. Ken Ham who has made a name for himself pushing his brand of Christianity has made very little real arguments during this whole thing. It is kind of sad that Bill Nye has had to take the stage to try and have a sensible conversation with a charlatan of this degree. Recently Ham has been caught in a legal struggle in which he is accused of using tax breaks to fund the building of a religious park that will only hire people who subscribe to his religious views. He used the excuse of job creation to take tax payer money to not just create a theme park but to also build a life size Noah's Ark to prove that it was possible for such a ship to have existed at any point.
