It was not a representative debate for anyone. First, "creationism" and "evolution" were not defined. Old Earth Creationists, Progressive Creationists, and Theistic Evolutionists were ignored by Young Earth Ham. Meanwhile, Nye never went into the internal divides of evolutionary theory. For example, if you consider yourself a "Darwinist" you are outside the scientific mainstream. Darwin's gradual evolution has been replaced by most scientists in favor of punctuated equilibrium.
The debate in the end was by two people deeply convicted in their own views which they presented as the only view. Mr. Ham dismissed every sort of God-related theory but his own and Mr. Nye completely ignored any theory of evolution that involved God and kept his argument vague enough to not disown Darwin.
