Remember folks, people should stick to what they do and not have opinions on anything else.
Journalists should stick to journalism.
Philosophers should stick to philosophy
WLC should stick to lying and making shit up.
Chloroform should stick to asking people if they want fries with that.
If we ever meet on a professional level, Chloroform. Yes, I want fries.
Whatever you say, I'll gladly play my role of suggesting fries to people. If I happened to have the same rhetorical skill this guy had, it would be dishonest of me to delve into philosophy and, even more specifically, philosophy of religion. I'll be better off using my skills to promote various styles of french fries, for instance. That would be more coherent and intellectually honest.
Even true things can be ridiculed and *dismantled* in a debate when one debater somewhat manages to entertain the audiance more than his counterpart. Debates, overall, are rarely a good way to lay out facts.

Yeah, WLC is a philosopher whose philosophy led him to consider and proclaim that Islam is a fraud and fake religion, that it is wicked and that it is immoral to preach Islam

So..? Is being a philosopher equivalent to getting everything right to you ? I respect lots of christian apologists myself and don't even pretend to be able to "answer" them or anything.
The important thing is that they are intellectually coherent.
