Why Lock the Bill Nye Debates Ken Ham

[Engineer1]

Surely given it is a science Vs Creationism debate video it would make more sense in Science! than locking it stating it should be in the You tube thread.

weird...I just searched for a topic on it (watching it now) to see what others thought of it.

Nearly 3 hours long it's not really appropriate imo to talk about the debate in the YouTube thread as it's not just about the location of the hosting of the video but the content just like the 1000's of other topics that link to YouTube in some way.

I believe there's a blanket policy not to allow YT links regardless of the content or intent of the post.

As I recall, it's because posting YT links could easily be advertising and / or someone promoting their own YT channel so easiest just not to allow it at all.

From a personal perspective, I thought that posting a link to a two and three quarter hour video (with no real comment in the OP) was never really going to generate any worthwhile replies.

If it's an area which interests you, it'd be better to start a new "Creationism Vs Evolution" thread with reference to the debate but not a link to the YT video. I won't be contributing.

You may be right neither side will suit through the whole thing as if you are right and understand evolution then Ken Ham will get old quick and if you are deluded enough to beleive Ken Ham then there is no hope for you.

I see this one has now been revived.
