The debate was held at Liberty Baptist College (now Liberty University). It was between Dr. Duane Gish from the Institution for Creation Research (ICR) in San Diego, California and Dr. Russell Doolittle. Prof. Doolittle is a famous evolutionist who agreed a couple of years prior to 1981 to a face to face confrontation with Dr. Gish over the issue of creation/ evolution

«No single creation-evolution debate, regardless of how glorious or dismal, could undo what the Bryan-Darrow confrontation did. Nevertheless, ICR achieved a set-piece victory that more or less expiated the 1925 disaster and let the ghost of William Jennings Bryan rest in peace.
Duane Gish, ICR's premier debater, met Russel Doolittle, a biochemist at the University of California, San Diago, in a debate at Rev. Jerry Falwell's Liberty Baptist College in Lynchburg, Virginia on 13 October 1981. Both parties agreed that Falwell's television program, the "Old-Time Gospel Hour", would tape the debate and broadcast it later. The timing was ideal for creationists: the cause was in the news almost every day, attracting support subsequent to the Segraves trial at March, the Arkansas law of the same month, and the Louisiana law in July. Excitement was rising as the Arkansas law approached its December trial.
Doolittle and Gish had debated previously, though not for television. With Falwell as the moderator and his college as the audience, Gish had the advantage of talking on his own turf.
..<..>..Gish. the T. H. Huxley of creationism was smooth, telegenic, and perfectly timed. ICR could justifiably claim vicroty, and, even better, it had the victory on videotape».
(Christopher P. Toumey, «God's Own Scientists: Creationists in a Secular World», p. 115)

«The protein chemist from the University of California came to Jerry Falwell's fundamentalist country in Lynchburg, Va., to defend evolution against Biblical creationism. It was the biggest debate of its kind ever, one that will be aired in prime time on national television in four to six weeks.
"I am aware that I shouldn't be doing this. It's a no-win situation," the chemist, Russell Doolittle, said before the debate Tuesday night.
He was right. If there had been debate judges present, they would have given the match to the fundamentalist, Duane Gish of the Institute for Creation Research, who attacked the "atheistic theory of evolution" and maintained that dinosaurs and all other creatures were created by God and lived in recent times alongside man».

The late Dr. Duane Gish was a man who, in addition to his accomplishments as a speaker and writer, was known by many as the foremost creationist debater in the world today. He logged literally hundreds of thousands of miles in order to bring the truth of creation to adults and children alike. Dr. Gish's travels took him to virtually every state in the continental U.S. and into 25 foreign countries, including the Soviet Union.

His book, Dinosaurs: Those Terrible Lizards, was published when there was very little creationist literature available for children. Evolution: The Challenge of the Fossil Record is the book God has used in the lives of many to lay aside, once and for all, the fallacious ape-man theory.

He held key positions at Berkeley, Cornell University Medical College, and The Upjohn Company, where he collaborated with former Nobel Prize winners in various projects. His interest in the creation/evolution issue grew until, in 1971, he left The Upjohn Company to join the faculty at the newly established (1970) Christian Heritage College and its research division. In 1972, the latter changed its name to the Institute for Creation Research, and Dr. Gish has served as Associate Director and Vice President since that time.

Dr. Gish was not only a distinguished scientist, but also a gracious Christian gentleman. He passed away in March 2013.

Dr. Duane Gish Retires
by John D. Morris, Ph.D.

As noted in the lead article of this month's Acts & Facts, Senior Vice President, Dr. Duane Gish has retired from full-time activity at ICR. You can well imagine that this announcement was received with mixed emotions.

On the one hand, we rejoice with Duane at this milestone. Certainly he deserves a little less stress in his life. He has had enormous impact on the creation movement, joining ICR's staff nearly at its inception, he became known as Creation's Bulldog, a champion for its defense, and a tireless proponent of its validity. This early partnership with my father, Dr. Henry Morris, put ICR on the map and raised creation thinking to respectability.He will be especially well remembered for his prowess in creation/evolution debates. I can't imagine how anyone could understand more issues, control more data, remember more sources, and articulate them more clearly than Duane Gish. He will be sorely missed. Already we are finding him impossible to replace. Much has been made of his numerous debate victories. I can remember one he did not win. In preparation for my first formal debate back in 1985, we held a mock debate before the ICR staff. Playing the part of the evolutionist, he pulled every dirty trick on me that had been pulled on him. Thankfully I had been to lunch with him enough to know the answers to the tricks. Most thought the debate ended in a draw. Even with Duane Gish as an advocate, evolution is a loser.

There have been many dirty tricks and cheap shots leveled at Duane Gish over the years, but to his credit he always responded as a Christian gentleman. Often this even carried the day, as personal attacks were rebutted with gracious logic and scientific data.

Actually, his career is far from over. Duane has plans to update his current books and write at least two more. He just completed another grueling debate with geneticist Dr. Ed Max, enduring personal insults and debate tricks, while answering all serious arguments. Appropriately, he is to receive the Issachar Award this month from Cornerstone University. The Award is named after the "Men of Issachar, who understood the times and knew what Israel should do" (I Chronicles 12:32), which is awarded to "one that not only grasps the meaning of a Christian world-view for their own good, but also exercises a leadership that applies their Christian values for the good of others. Issachar awardees are in the best sense men and women of God. They know the truth and seek to make it known."

Every encounter with Duane Gish has been an enjoyable one, full of good humor, warmth, and Christian fellowship. He will now have the title "Emeritus Vice President" of ICR and retain an office just down the hall from mine. He will still speak and write for ICR as often as he cares to, so you haven't heard the last of him.

Duane, we thank God for you and all you've done. He has used you mightily. We pray God's very best for you in the years to come, until He returns.

The debate took place on 1981..
The resolution of the debate is this: the theory of evolution is superior to the theory of special creation as an explanation for all the scientific evidence related to origins.

ORIGINS: How The World Came To Be
Part 6: The Fossil Record

produced by Films for Christ and EO

The fossil record is a huge embarrassment to Evolutionists. Here’s why!

What does the fossil record really prove? Do earth’s massive dinosaur graveyards and coalified vegetation beds point to a millions-of-years-old environment where only the fittest survived, or to a lost world completely erased by the just hand of a loving God?
This fast-moving documentary reveals thought-provoking discoveries related to the Grand Canyon, geology, fossilization, “missing links,” coal formation, a worldwide flood, and more. Ph.D. scientists reveal why the Earth’s fossil record actually provides more evidence against Evolutionism than for it. This film is part of the award-winning ORIGINS: How the World Came to Be series

Evolution: Fact or Belief? (1997)

Scientists from around the world with PhDs in everything from paleontology to chemistry, molecular biology to engineering give the program substantial academic credibility and the graphics and animations, while a little dated and simplistic, nevertheless do a good job of illustrating the various points…The section on sedimentation is particularly interesting and devastating to the evolutionary model.” Eric Holmberg, The Apologetics Group

The controversy regarding the theory of evolution vs. Biblical creationism has been going on ever since Darwin penned The Origin of Species. And the trajectory of modern science has tended to heavily favor, even insist upon, the materialistic assumptions that gave rise to and sustains Darwin’s theory. But that is slowly beginning to change as new scientific evidence is being uncovered that supports the creationist position.

Scientists from around the world are interviewed in this fascinating documentary. We learn why they do not except blind chance and evolution as a reasonable explanation for the origin of the universe, life or man. We further uncover remarkable new evidences that support Biblical creationism. For example, recent experiments conducted at Colorado State University cast serious doubt on one of the pillars of modern geology and evolutionary theory: that rocks and sediments can be used to date both fossils and the earth.

This well-produced video features graphics, illustrations and interesting locations in introducing the viewer to one of the most important and far-reaching disputes of the modern era.

Scientists featured:
•Dr. Giuseppe Sermonti, molecular biology
•Dr. Roberto Fonda, paleontology
•Dr. Pierre Julien, engineering – river mechanics, erosion & sedimentation
•Dr. Maciej Gietych, dendrology (science and study of wooded plants)
•Dr. Guy Berthault, sedimentology
•Dr. Edward Boudreaux, chemistry

What I believe:

Niceno-Constantinopolitan Creed. The only true Church is the [eastern] Orthodox Church.
Catholics, protestants and anyone who is outside of Orthodox Church is not saved!
Theistic evolution is a compilation of heresies and stubborn theistic evolutionists (who are not willing to abandon it after being given reasonable refutation of this belief) are not saved!
