If there is such a thing as a respected theologian, which there isn't, Comfort obviously does not fit the mold. There are three rules that I use to determine whether a person in any field is worthy of respect.

2.) Does this person think that bananas are proof of Jesus?
3.) Does this person work with Kirk Cameron?
Comfort fails all three smell tests, and probably more. The brilliant Myers confounds me by agreeing to this, because it lends credence to the notion that Ray Comfort should be afforded the respect of debating a brilliant biologist who is being considered (albeit slightly) for the Simonyi Chair.
Myers realizes this, and says on his blog:
My opponent is…
Really, I'm embarrassed to say it…
My opponent is…Ray Comfort
