>On December 19, 1997, the well-known PBS program ãFiring Lineä will air

>will be a debate, taking place on a college campus before a student
>audience.

>Host William Buckley has once again invited Michael Kinsley, editor of
>the on-line magazine Slate, to moderate. Buckley will join other
>debaters arguing in favor of the resolution, ãResolved: The
>evolutionists should acknowledge creation.ä All but one guest has been
>chosen from the best-known anti-evolutionists, and the leading defenders
>of evolution. Dr. Eugenie C. Scott, Executive Director of the National
>Center for Science Education; Rev. Barry Lynn, Executive Director of
>Americans United for Separation of Church and State; philosopher
>Michael Ruse, author of But Is It Science? and Monad to Man; and Kenneth
>R. Miller, Div. of Biology and Medicine, Brown University. Buckley will
>be joined by law professor Phillip Johnson, author of Darwin on Trial;
>biochemist Michael Behe, author of Darwinâs Black Box ; and
>mathematician David Berlinski, whose anti-evolution article in
>Commentary drew considerable attention last year. (Miller and Johnson
>have already participated in an online debate sponsored by the
>television science series "Nova".)

>The live broadcast of Firing Line will be at 8:00 PM Eastern time on
