Deist vs Christian debates?
#16
RE: Deist vs Christian debates?
Dystopia said what I was trying to say. You can have theists that believe in miracles but are agnostic about which miracles claims are the real deal. You can have theists that are agnostic about the attributes god has, and have others that reject the attributes traditionally given to god like omnipotent and etc.

WLC always does this-- argues intelligent design, the need for an unmade conscious maker, etc. Then at the end of the debate, he blurts out ". . . so Jesus Christ praise God read the Bible."
Hitchens was good at calling apologists out for that. I haven't heard his debate with Craig, I imagine Craig saying something like "that's irrelevant because I'm not arguing for Christianity and I have to remind the audience that you have failed to prove god does not exist," or some slimy reply like that.
