Evangelist Ray Comfort says last week's debate between himself, fellow Christian Kirk Cameron and two atheists was a unique opportunity to present the message of salvation to millions. The debate was moderated by Nightline host Martin Bashir and broadcast on ABCnews.com, with highlights played on the show.

The debate was taped in New York City by ABC's Nightline and was billed as a battle to prove the existence of God. During the debate, Comfort was able to present the biblical plan of salvation by using God's moral laws, the Ten Commandments, to show the reality of sin and mankind's need to accept Christ's payment.

During the debate, both Comfort and Cameron used creation, DNA, the conscience and conversion to prove God's existence, while the two atheists spoke of evolution as proof that God does not exist. However, Comfort has recently launched a website on intelligent design versus evolution, which looks at the facts.

"On that site, we offer $10,000 for anyone who can offer any living transitional forms," the evangelist points out. "So it's just another interesting site people can go to," he says, "to see how evolution is a fairy tale for grownups. There's no scientific evidence for evolution whatsoever."
