Inside the Nye-Ham DebateInside the Bill Nye Ken Ham Debate by Ken Ham and Bodie Hodge
Well, it’s been over seven months since my historic debate with Bill Nye “the Science Guy.” Our conservative estimate is that upwards of 15 million people have now seen this widely recognized debate. And now we have an exciting announcement to make. Popular AiG speaker and author Bodie Hodge (my son-in-law) and I have written what we believe is a unique and powerful book about the debate—not just dealing with the content of the debaters, but detailing behind the scenes and personal information. We believe this publication (estimated to be well over 300 pages), will be a phenomenal teaching tool, and will be a fascinating read for what has been called by some as “the debate of the century.”

The book is not only written from Bodie’s perspective as my son-in-law, but also from someone who understands the content in regard to both sides of the debate. I also have given Bodie a lot of information behind the debate, and a considerable amount of personal information that gives this book a unique twist.

Inside the Bill Nye Ken Ham Debate thoroughly dissects the entire debate from the opening statements to the question-answer period at the end. This book expounds on many of the statements and arguments that I made during the debate, and respectfully addresses Bill Nye’s arguments against the biblical position and for evolution and naturalism. As an added feature, it also contains the entire debate transcript!

Many people have lingering questions from the debate and are curious about how, if given more time than I had during the debate, I would have countered Mr. Nye’s claims. This new resource does just that. I encourage everyone who viewed the debate—believer or skeptic alike—to get a hold of this resource. Believers will be equipped to stand firmly on the authority of God’s Word and respectfully dialogue with others. Skeptics will be challenged with the truth of God’s Word, the bankruptcy of evolution and naturalism, and the abundance of scientific evidence for the biblical model of origins.

I also answer many questions people have asked me, such as, “Who won the debate?” And I give my personal thoughts on Bill Nye and his beliefs. And of course, as I did in the debate, we share why I even involve myself in such debates: to be a soldier for the King and obey the Great Commission.

This exciting new resource is available as a preorder.

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying,

Ken

I guess the debate with Bill Nye looks good on his CV. He can use it now to further his career. Dawkins was right.

Another LOL line:

We believe this publication (estimated to be well over 300 pages)...


Shows the mentality of his target audience, that they would consider this an impressive selling point. I also like the "estimated" part. His son-in-law couldn't figure out how to enter page numbers on a Word document?

They're not renowned for numerical accuracy. Still, 300 is probably as close to the actual number of pages as three is to pi.

Probably a sizeable number of pages will be taken up by this.

Actually I have a different opinion to the rest of ya i've read. Nye did well in the debate and it's spread pretty far. He has it for a talking point and has used it in several talks and lectures to point and again the gross earnings even with a book the sheeple will buy is only a drop in the bucket to Ham's pore fiscal derision to build a fucking big boat.
Next time a creationist says, "Were you there to watch the big bang", say "Yes we are".

I don't deny that he did well in the debate. But that's besides the point. Ham's public profile was raised by the event much more than Nye's was, and it even appears that the debate may have allowed Ham to raise the funds to complete the Ark project, which prior to that was floundering.

How do you figure? Ham got a bit of bump but from what I've read 3 months after groundbreaking ground has yet to be broken and there is still not even contractors hired. It looks like it is still floundering. Probably why the new stunt. Or this might just be a scam as with other creationist theme park.
