There are many Christian literalists but also many, many Christians who believe as I do. The Christian site I frequent (not the same one referred to above) may be dominated by old Earth believers. The posts I've read over there agree that Nye won the debate.

Nye is a heavyweight and Ham a lightweight, so not a fair fight. I'd love to see Nye debate Dr. Francis Collins on the existence of a deity and how the universe came about. That would be heavyweight vs. heavyweight.
I don't think that Nye would much care to have that debate. He didn't debate Ham because he's a Christian, he debated him because he promotes blatant denial of science.
