atheists; are there any creationists or apologists who can offer a reasonable debate to a scientific atheist?

i have seen hundreds of such debates, but have yet to find any from the theist side that can offer something new, original, or thought provoking.

Shirley, there must be somebody.

theists: i am genuinely not interested in your opinion on this matter

Update:

shut up Shirley

    No, there never has been and never will be.

    The debate will go something like this

    Creatard: "I don't understand science or how science works but I believe in magic because I don't understand x section pertaining to x topic and this book claims that it does exist."

    Scientist: ...

    If I understand you to mean: are there creation scientists who can offer a reasonable debate with a mainstream scientist? The answer is no. Creation science isn't science. For the same reason, an alchemist cannot offer a reasonable debate with a mainstream chemist. Forget the aims of the alchemist, forget his motivations, forget his goals--the fact is, science explores the world as it is. Alchemy doesn't actually explore anything at all.

    Similarly, creation science doesn't seek to understand the world. They seek to prove that a nonscientific entity is possible, and usually go about trying to poke holes in theories that they very clearly don't understand at all, as if they're the only conceivable alternative to the mainstream. There's no point in debating the merits because they promote no scientific theory. They make no testable predictions that can be explored. They're just a bunch of assertions that the mainstream has it wrong.

    You can always debate the merits of scientific exploration versus faith, but that debate is about epistemology, not scientific theory.

    The proof in the news and science page of the website mentioned below, none can dispute His Word revealed therein...

    {{Website mentioned below has many pictures with zoom and copy ability, and Image of Darwin being Beat down By MY Lord Jesus on the proof in the news and science page}}

    Go to your google search and type in Adam and Eve seed gathering, and enter the website {{especially the about page and services page where the unclean spirits/satan are actually exposed in images}} and through out the site on each page are many proofs of the now end of sickness and premature aging, and the end of all unnatural acts of Mankind/womenkind, the mystery of God is finished Rev:10:7, and the code/key given of His Bible and the now end of death is soon brought through His medical code/key sent Rev:21:4, Rev:1:18...contact page is for questions and proofs being sent or received, as is the e-mail...IT HAS BEGUN

    Must be of an age of understanding to visit the Epic gathering website

    Many are good debaters. But that doesn't mean they are right or smart. They just know how to use fallacies.
