Gish'' - Answers in Genesis]</ref>) was a prolific debater for [[YEC|Young Earth Creationism]] and a member of [[ICR|The Institute for Creation Research (ICR)]].
Gish was viewed as the winner of his debates by friend and foe alike based on audience reaction.<ref>Ankerberg Theological Research Institute, ''Truth in Advertising: Damaging the Cause of Science'', by Dr. John Ankerberg and Dr. John Weldon [http://www.ankerberg.com/Articles/science/SC0104W1E.htm]</ref> So profound was Gish's impact on the debate scene, that [[evolution|evolutionary]] websites posted articles stating not how to debate Creationists in general, but instead how to specifically debate Duane Gish. Dr. [[Henry Morris]] wrote of Dr. Gish, who had over 300 formal debates, "at least in our judgment and that of most in the audiences, he always wins." <ref>Ankerberg Theological Research Institute, ''Truth in Advertising: Damaging the Cause of Science'', by Dr. John Ankerberg and Dr. John Weldon [http://www.ankerberg.com/Articles/science/SC0104W1E.htm]</ref>
