I've heard a few atheists say Craig wins debates. I don't see how. Most public debates don't have any winning conditions. There are no judges giving points or anything close to that. Craig just declares himself the winner because his opponents don't refute every argument he makes like that is how public debates work. That's silly.(August 9, 2015 at 3:38 am)Pizza Wrote: Debates are often for entertainment purposes and never do justice to a topic do to time and format limitations. So, I don't see why apologists make a big deal out of them. If someone doesn't want to debate they aren't obligated to.
I think it is precisely because they do not do justice to a topic that apologists love them - they don't have a chance in a real scientific discourse. Look at how WLC fans boast about the multitudes he has allegedly defeated in debates, all the while being a dishonest idiot.
