Creation Museum founder Ken Ham is once again furious that Pat Robertson has mocked proponents of Young Earth Creationism, and now wants to appear on the “700 Club” to debate the televangelist.

Yes, please. This must happen.

Pat Robertson's apostasy can be summed as follows:

Now if the world were millions of years old as suggested by evolutionists, blood was shed and death occurred before Adam's original sin. This would destroy the foundation of the atonement brought by the death of Christ on the cross.

Good point, Ken Ham. If we start believing the earth is billions of years old, then it definitely calls into question a literal interpretation of the bible.
 
Ham just wants more donors, and figures Robertson's crowd is ripe for the picking. Robertson gains nothing from the debate, so - never happen.

Not to mention ham is biblically unclean;

Leviticus 11:7-8; and the pig, for though it divides the hoof, thus making a split hoof, it does not chew cud, it is unclean to you. You shall not eat of their flesh nor touch their carcasses; they are unclean to you.
 
Ham and Robertson in the same room at the same time?

Debating whether their invisible friend created the universe a) 6000 years ago or b) 14.6 billion years ago?

Sounds good to me! I can't think of anything better for the atheist cause than watching these two loons try to make each other look silly(ier)

Robertson won't do it, though. Though it's hard to pick which one is whackier, I think Robertson is - dare I say it - 'smarter'
 
"You have to deaf, dumb and blind to think that this Earth that we live in only has 6,000 years of existence." - Pat Robertson, 13 May 2014

It must be the End Times. I agree with Pat Robertson.

It is one of a series. Ham also has declared the Hovind/Baugh/Juby brand to be wrong for putting forward really poor physical evidence like the Texas dinosaur on human footprints and the like. There is a page on the AiG wensite of ten or twenty hopeless evidences that should not be used in creationist arguments.

What's weird is that Pat Robertson would be the "normal" one in this debate.
 

Against my better judgment I clicked on that link and looked around. I found gems like these;

Evolution has to be one of the absolute dumbest ideas man has ever came up with. Did you evolve from a rock? Might sound like a pretty stupid question; however, if you examine the evolution theory, they actually believe that they came from a rock.

The theory behind a black hole is that light can be attracted by gravity. Well, if this is true you cannot say that the speed of light is a constant. At Harvard University back in 1999 they slowed light down to 38 mph. The next year they slowed it down to 1 mph and later they slowed it down to a complete stop! At Princeton University back in 2,000 they accelerated the speed of light by 300 times its normal velocity!

If I told you that if you kissed a frog, it would magically turn into a handsome prince; you would know that this is a fairy tale. Did you know that this same fairy tale is being promoted as science today? However, the magical ingredient is no longer a kiss. The new magical ingredient is millions of years.

Alternately, he's a conman who gets rich off of convincing people to believe things. There is, sadly, no shortage of people who buy much of what he's selling, though.
