to be fair, the other gentleman had already lost by agreeing to "debate" Bryan Fischer

That's exactly the problem.

This is one of those times where it would be nice if we could gracefully submit playlists or channels instead of single videos.

I think it's okay, but what I don't like is submitting videos from official channels that have comments turned off.

I don't like the idea of giving these people's channels views, especially when they prohibit discussion.

Videos like this usually get mirrored by Media Matters or Right Wing Watch, channels that allow comments and the comments are half the fun of these videos.

Also, they generally have a wider audience and I love the idea of mirrors of these videos getting more views than the original.

It shows that encouraging discussion gets a wider audience than censorship, lets the internet openly mock them, shows the world that this rhetoric still exists while also depriving them of views, which actually does impact their business model a bit.

I whole Heartily agree with your idea.

I lived in Kansas for a year in 09 and got to hear this guys shtick straight off the American Family Association's radio station. I certainly understand the appeal of listening to him if you haven't heard him before. And seeing as how he's pretty high up in the AFA people should know who he is and what he stands for.

He isn't worth keeping updates on though. He can't outrageous himself anymore If you've heard him talk on science and the gays, then you know where he will always stand. And no shred of evidence will ever change his viewpoint. That is of course giving him the benefit of the doubt that he does, in fact, believe the stream of liquid shit he says on a daily basis and isn't just pounding the drums for money...which he most certainly is doing.

His entire radio show is just a daily two hour infomercial, "The left wing gestapo fascists are coming for your beliefs, and the mainstream media, even those over at fox news, who mostly do great things, aren't telling you what this is actually going to cause to happen..." ect. ect. ect. is a common running theme.

I like to think I got over this guy awhile ago, but dammit I keep coming back. listening to him speak with his overly saliva filled mouth, so reminiscent of someone trying to, not so much, eat a piece of toffee but savor it. Now I'm just rambling. I am looking forward to the gay scandal though.

They'll never do that. Creationists tend to have a view of the world that's very simple. Something is either right or it is wrong, it is black or white. In their minds, if they can prove evolutionary theory is wrong (or at least not completely correct) then creationism wins by default. And that way creationism doesn't have to explain what it does, it just needs to point out how others are wrong.
