An Evolution v. Creation Debate

At IU South Bend today was a lunchtime debate on that well traveled subject of evolution v. creation. The event was sponsored by the campus Anthropology Club. A panel consisted of 3 faculty on the evolution side and 2 on the creation side (actually, one of those was a non-faculty who leads the Campus Bible Fellowship group).

Nothing new came out. I mean, what really could? The science faculty had all their data down as to why evolution clearly wins over creation. The creation advocates had all their reasons to why it's a matter of believing God's word. Both sides did an admirable job. The debate could have gone on all day without either side ever coming to a consensus. Although I believe the evolutionists were a little prickly at times and borderline scoffing, while the creation advocates got a little preachy.

Oh well, like I said, not much new to report on this topic. The debate continues. After it was over, everyone was invited to have a piece of cake in honor of Darwin's 198th birthday. I wanted to ask, "Was it created or did it just randomly appear while we weren't looking?" But I didn't.
