Some Debates I'd Like To See On Future Episodes of "Meet The Press" (Updated)

This morning on Meet The Press, Bill Nye The Science Guy debated Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn) on whether climate change is human caused.  I found this a worthy topic for debate, given that the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's most recent report states that there is only a mere 95% chance that humans are responsible for global warming.

Although I caught only the last few minutes of this "debate," it occurred to me that Meet The Press should host a lot more of these things.  Here are some suggestions for future topics:

• Stephen Hawking could debate Todd Akin on whether or not the Earth revolves around the sun (after all, 26% of Americans believe the Sun revolves around the Earth).


• Buzz Aldrin could debate Sarah Palin on whether or not the Moon is made of cheese.


• John Glenn could debate Ted Cruz's dad on whether or not the Earth is flat.

Those are just a few of the many controversial topics on which Meet The Press could hold debates in the future.  I'm also looking forward to a discussion on whether Jesus's preferred way to travel was to ride a brontosaurus or to fly around on the back of a pterodactyl.

UPDATE:  More on this here.
