Talk:Bill Nye

!

Part of this article was copied from CreationWiki but the copied text was originally written by me, 1990'sguy (under the same name) and does not include any additions made by others on those sites.

Here's the permanent link. Much of the info was also originally from CP's page, which I originally wrote here as well. --1990'sguy (talk) 22:36, 17 January 2017 (EST)

Transgenderism

Once upon a time, Bill Nye put science ahead of shilling for left-wing causes: "Bill Nye In 1996: Chromosomes Determine If You’re A Boy Or Girl." PeterKa (talk) 08:13, 3 May 2017 (EDT)

I added that to the article (even though I used WND as a source). --1990'sguy (talk) 08:48, 3 May 2017 (EDT)

The "Ken Ham Responds to Bill Nye The Humanist Guy" link

I removed that link because it is dead on the internet. It says "This video is unavailable". External links commonly go stale, and I generally remove them when I find them. Now it's been put back. There are 2 explanations: (1) There's something about my computer that makes it unable to see a site that others can see (this wouldn't surprise me that much; the internet is full of messy authorization issues), or (2) 1990'sguy didn't check the link when putting it back. Please check this, and remove it (or find out where it went and link to its new home) if it is in fact dead.

evolutionISM and creationISM

1990'sguy, you're right about these terms. The usage should be symmetrical. And I've always been bothered by the term "evolutionist" or "evolutionism" (though Cons likes them). Though people who accept Biblical creation don't seem as bothered by being called "creationists" as I am about being called an "evolutionist".

The problem was that "creation" is much more likely to be considered ambiguous than "evolution", so people put the "ism" on it. But, after giving it some thought, I'm convinced that, in the context of articles like this, no one is going to think "evolution" refers to mathematical graphs, and no one is going to think "creation" refers to web sites.

I assume people are OK with my usage of the word "Biblical". I don't think that anyone who believes that the universe came into being 6000 years ago believes that for any reason other than that it's in the Bible. Feel free to take that word out if you think I'm overusing it.
