Debates Generate Vigorous Response | Gish, DT. 1975.
Impact 24:i-xii. CELD ID 3159Abstract The creation-evolution debates on the University of Tennessee campus on January 14 (, February 1975) and on the campus of Texas Tech on February 9 (, March 1975), not only generated considerable excitement on these campuses, but also inspired a series of totally insupportable and false charges against Dr. Morris and Dr. Gish, particularly Dr. Gish, by their opponents and other faculty members on these campuses. The creationists have been accused of misquoting sources, quoting out of context, distorting evidence, mislabeling slides, and other questionable tactics. Dr. Morris and Dr. Gish, on the other hand, have always assumed that their opponents were men of integrity and sincerity. ICR scientists have never publicly accused their opponents of dishonesty or of deliberately distorting evidence. Perhaps these attacks on the creationists have been inspired by the poor showing the evolutionists have made in these debates.
