@PhilosophyExp Is debate a good way to do that, especially if you lose? I suspect not, but I'm not sure.

@sjzara I think once you begin to make that sort of argument, you're moving away from the claim that the mere truth of evo rules out debate.

@PhilosophyExp What I'm trying to suggest is that it's not evolution itself that needs to be debated.

@PhilosophyExp What needs to be debated, I think, is the value of science itself for looking at reality, as against religious experience.

@sjzara to be gain in terms of disseminating the truth by debate, etc.

. @PhilosophyExp Ah. I see your point. Yes.. it's not because evolution is true, but because you don't do science by debate.

@sjzara Agreed. But you might do science *education* by debate, & that might be important (not saying it's the best way for our situation).

@PhilosophyExp @sjzara (sorry to butt in) New to it, I learned a lot from Shermer vs Hovind, evo vs creationism, so I agree with Jeremy.
