Is there still a Vim vs Emacs debate? There was, 20 years ago, but Vim made an entree (renaissance?) outside the old school Unix crowd 5 or 10 years ago, and since then, Vim users vastly outnumber Emacs users (in my highly unscientific observations).

I'm certainly one of the Vim clique and I love a little religious infighting between communities. So I'm quite happy that this battle is ongoing. Just in another thread a few days ago HN community discussed about how much org-mode strengthens the interest in Emacs. And I have to say it's really great, if you can accept that everything happens in Emacs.
