Some evolutionists who couldn’t get tickets within that two-minute window stated that the museum was actually trying to pack the auditorium with its supporters. One secularist declared that we supposedly want “to keep science people and other trouble-makers out, so that the audience will be all drooling creationists.” Well, the online registration for debate tickets was open to everyone. There was no way our software could detect a creationist from an evolutionist!
There has also been criticism that we made it our policy to ask for a photo ID when people will pick up their purchased debate tickets at the museum, as if we will be screening out evolutionist at that time. Of course, that’s nonsense as well. It’s almost as if these critics believe that photo IDs—like a driver’s license—have a “C” on them to designate the person as a creationist, or an “E” for evolutionist! Furthermore, when people pick up their tickets, we are not going to ask them what their view of evolution is.
Why an ID? It’s to help avoid the scenario of people buying debate tickets and scalping them for a big profit. Thus we are insisting that the purchaser himself or herself will be using the tickets. Therefore, when tickets are picked up, the photo ID can be validated against our registration list. That’s all it is. Not long after the tickets went on sale, someone offered debate tickets for sale on craigslist.org for $500 each. Now you know why we are insisting on IDs to pick up the tickets.
And it appears that many people who do not support AiG are making some false accusation against Ken Ham. What a shame.

It sounds like you're really angry at something.
It's just that evolutionists (or a group of people who support evolutionists) made false statement about Ken invited-only to believers/creationists.
The reason Ken Ham has to force people to show ID is because he tries to prevent people from buying ticket and then sell for $500 to $1,000 on Ebay/Craiglist sites. I've seen people doing like that before. Ken did explained this himself (in case anyone didn't hear it):
Angry? No. It sounds like you are ignoring my post and picking out words for your benefit.
Ken Ham is a liar, nobody ever presented the conspiracy theories he has in his blog. He is being condescending and dishonest.
The blogger was also condescending, but wasn't dishonest, and didn't make the accusations Ken Ham is accusing him of, indirectly.. because Ken Ham doesn't even have enough respect to link or actually quote people. Because if he actually linked to the article, he couldn't make things up about it.
Truthfully, no, I did not ignore all of words you've said. It's just that the quotes I've pulled by you are "louder" than others. Experiences tell me that any time a person is calling names or say things such as "stupid", "dumb", etc. is usually the one who upsets about something. I can clearly see that myself.
He does link to other sites quite a few time if you actually take the time to dig through many of his older blogs. I've been following him for more than 4 years and he does always provide entire sites/blogs whenever he is discussing with other people about issues. Before calling him a liar, I suggest you to dig a bit deeper (including his facebook page, letters from Answers In Genesis site, emails, and such.). In fact, they just discussed about people having some few issues with the event of Bill Vs Ken Ham. Please do yourself a favor and read this link:

This on TV or internet or what?
I'm actually interested in hearing it just to see how he tries to disprove whatever points Nye brings up.It bothers me that Nye would give that douche nozzle the time of day. On the one hand we have physical evidence that everyone can experiment with. On the other hand you'll just have to take my word for it that there's an invisible guy floating around out there who made all of this. Creationism would be a funnier joke if there weren't ignorant people willing to treat it like a hard fact.

In addition to CNN correspondent Tom Foreman who will moderate the debate, over 70 credentialed media will be in attendance, such as ABC, NBC, Scientific American magazine, Sydney Morning Herald (Australia), Al Jazeera, The New Yorker, etc
Immediately at the conclusion of the debate, Bill Nye and Ken Ham will walk inside the Creation Museum next door to be interviewed for the “Piers Morgan Live” program on CNN for a 9:45 PM post-debate analysis. During the 10 PM hour and inside the museum, MSNBC TV will interview Mr. Nye by himself.
I could see that point of view but Christians quote mine the s*** out of scientists in order to pretend that there are people who agree with their stories. This will be no different. Nye will say something, that will be taken out of context, and Christian ministries will print the s*** out of it as proof that "scientists agree with creationism".
