...which has (more or less) equal contributions by equally educated advocates of Creationism\Intelligent design and Modern Evolution Theory respectively? All the websites I can find have a definite view they espouse, and while I'm sure this is valuable in its own right, it isn't very helpful to me.

What I'm thinking of is an academic site in an open discussion format with formal rebuttals et aliae eiusdem generis, open to editing only by specialists with at least an MA, and a forum for questions from laymen.

I have to do a scale drawing of the earth's atmosphere. The scale is 1 mm=3 km. I want to put a picture of the aurora borealis on here. How big should it be and where should it go to? Should i start at the Karman line (100 km) and go up? Where should i go up to? I really need to know at what height above the earth's surface a typical aurora borealis begins and also at what height above the earth's surface a typical one ends? Where should I start drawing it and where should I end it? If you can give me numbers in km, that'll be great, but other units are alright also. I am asking because I've found very different numbers, such as 97 km-1000 km and 90 km -130 km. Also where should meteors go? For meteors I've found 80 km-110 km, 80 km-120km, and 65 km-135km. The last one is height of ablation. Which one is correct?

I've come across a lot of people talking about alternate theories to plate tectonics recently and the most outrageous and well-constructed one is the expanding earth theory. One such proponent is Neal Adams. He has a video on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjgidAICoQI
What concrete arguments are there against his theory? He's a tough nut to crack.

At a coast line I found a shell in a tree back in the nearby forest. Going back to my geography lessons, would this be because years ago the coast line was where the forest used to be, but due to succession and longshore drift, the coastline expanded outwards?

Young Earth Creationists make an interesting point that you cannot believe the Bible and believe in an earth older than 6-10k years old because any other viewpoint than this indicates that there were many years of death (whether animals or human) before the Bible's story of the Fall begins. The Fall of man, the original sin, led to death. That said, there had to be a time when there was no death, if there was no death, then billions of years equals billions of animals and not enough resources and land mass to support this compounding problem. With this in mind, can I claim to believe the Bible and still somehow believe the earth is as most scientist (only Christian Scientists believe in a young earth) believe is billions of years old?
