I don't believe either that you listened or that you have been truthful about the debate. I have seen an outline of each parties points and you failed to describe it accurately.

"while prof Fox gently clapped the poor petulant lad quite soundly about the ears. Meyer went thru his entire rehearsed dog & pony show right up to the end playing the appeal to authority card when Prof Fox disagreed Meyer became vehement like an angry child"

I think Dawkins made the right response:

"I have never come across any kind of creationism, whether you call it intelligent design or not, which has a serious scientific case to put.

The objection to having debates with people like that is that it gives them a kind of respectability. If a real scientist goes onto a debating platform with a creationist, it gives them a respectability, which I do not think your people have earned."
