[[Creation science|Creation scientists]] tend to win the [[creation]] vs. [[evolution]] debates and many have been held since the 1970's particularly in the [[United States]]. Given the [[evolution|lack of evidence for the evolutionary paradigm]] and the [[creation science|abundant evidence for biblical creation]], this is not surprising. Robert Sloan, Director of Paleontology at the University of Minnesota, reluctantly admitted to a ''Wall Street Journal'' reporter that the "creationists tend to win" the public debates which focused on the creation vs. evolution controversy.<ref>Ankerberg, John, and Weldon, John, [http://www.ankerberg.com/Articles/science/SC0104W1E.htm Truth in Advertising: Damaging the Cause of Science]</ref>

Morris also said regarding the creation scientist [[Duane Gish]] (who had over 300 formal debates): “At least in our judgment and that of most in the audiences, he always wins.”<ref>[http://www.ankerberg.com/Articles/science/SC1200W1.htm Voices for evolution - John Ankerberg website]</ref>
