They would have done better to invite Francis Collins, director of the National Human Genome Research Institute and author of _The Language of God: A Scientist Presents Evidence for Belief_. He never would have sunk so low as to drag out an artist's rendering of a crocoduck. That was even lamer than the banana defense.
The producer of the segment and his editor did an extremely poor job with last night's "Face Off." They should have shown less Bashir and build-up and more content from the debate. We hardly got a teaspoon of the arguments, and the way they were edited together made them seem somewhat disconnected and incoherent.
I personally thought Bashir showed favoritism to the Christian apologists. He interviewed them face to face, as opposed to having the atheists' comments taped as they were standing in the hallway. The sound mix on the Christians' voices was far superior, lending a subliminal advantage. And it really was unethical of the sound editors to include the atheists' sotto voce comments to one another: "What a nutjob!"
In my opinion, the producers should have run the whole debate, or as much as would have filled the full length of Nightline, axing that other fluff segment about...I've forgotten what, it was so trivial.

The info of the problem is that this. God created guy to stroll in fellowship with Him, mankind fell and God needed to repair His liked mankind to the place they have been. The Bible says that without the laying off of blood, there is not any remission or forgiveness of sin- why, i don't know, God in no way defined that to us, we probably does not comprehend the mechanics at the back of it besides, no extra advantageous than a canines can comprehend why or how an inner combustion engine works. besides, the Jews had to furnish a blood sacrifice each and every years for the forgiveness of their sins, yet that wasn't sufficient. God want a brilliant sacrifice, a suited, spotless, sinless, sacrifice- one that is suffucient do the interest perpetually, yet there became into nonne to be got here upon. So, God presented a suited blood sacrifice, a suited, spotless lamb to do away with the sins of the entire international, subsequently He deliver Jesus, the long was hoping for Messiah, that could stay a organic, sinless existence, might shed His blood for all of our sins and might make it feasible to be forgiven so as that we, as persons could make it to Heaven. It stands to reason that in case you settle for Jesus as your blood sacrifice, which you would be able to and gets to Heaven, yet once you reject that comparable sacrifice, then if he's the only thank you to get your sins forgiven, then you quite've rejected the only thank you to Heaven. Jesus pronounced I (Jesus) am the way (to get to Heaven), the very fact, and the existence, NO guy is composed of the father different than by ability of or with the aid of Me. Now if there is somebody who lives in Cape CatahoocheeOlgascopa or someplace in the jungle and has in no way heard of Jesus, then God, being the loving and merely God that he's, will take that into attention and that i don't know what standards God makes use of, yet you are able to know that that's honest, and full of Grace. yet, basically, in case you do not settle for Jesus as your suited blood sacrifice so as which you will nicely be forgiven on your sins, then you quite have not have been given any way of being Forgiven and specific, you do not visit Heaven. Sorry, i did not make that rule, God did, i'm merely the messenger.

No, I saw them last night and thought they were a bit inarticulate for the challenge. At least they tried.

Considering Y!A they seemed par for the course. Personally I wasn't too fond of the atheists either.

Nope. There are many other knowledgable Christians who could have done much better.
