Actually, I did. In my book, I often quoted apologists and Bible "scholars". Their own arguments are so ridiculous that they almost pwn themselves.
They almost pwn themselves..hahaah could not agree more. I actually read The Case For Christ during my doubting days, as a last ditch effort to convince myself that what I had believed was actually true. Needless to say this didn't work, and even though I still considered myself a Christian at the time, I found the arguments he presented to be incredibly flimsy. I'm actually not familiar with the book the Case For Faith. The one I have been coming up against lately is his newer book, The Case for a Creator. According to a relative of mine, it put all his worries about God to rest. That is what makes me so angry, that a christian who is doubting can be encouraged to ignore his doubts by reading these books.
