It was a debate for the ages -- although in this case, the ages in question are either 6,000 or several billion.

Bill Nye, TV's "Science Guy," debated the age of the universe, evolution and other matters of science vs. faith with creationist Ken Ham.
It's worth watching not only to see how silly the creationist argument is, but also for what they would have in mind for free thought and science in general. Everything comes back to the Bible as translated and interpreted by people like Ham, for them.

"Rob explores the difference between a natural, organic, bottom-up connection consciousness and our corporately imposed top-down hierarchical collective consciousness. What Rob is speaking about is the difference between an artificial and ultimately stagnate way of organizing the world and a natural, organic growth, which starts with a seed, sends downs roots and sends up shoots which blossom. By returning to a Nature-based theory of connection, the Bottom-Up revolution brings us back into alignment with Earth's laws, returning humanity to its place in creation. Like a good gardener, Rob works into the soil of his thesis different voices that exemplify how this Bottom-Up revolution is expanding in politics, business, religion, personal self-awareness and story. And he places technology where it belongs""as a tool to further our connection consciousness, not an end in itself. The bottom-up revolution is about democracy finally living up to its original ideals, where we the people decide what we need from our society."
