All that Craig is showing is that to try and imply (as the atheist does) that most of the modern intelligentsia are atheists is refuted by the sheer number of Christian philosophy professors in modern prestigious universities. He lists names because the ones the atheist mentions are dead, "he's dead too!"
Go watch the video again and try to understand the context of those names. Those names are not a part of modern intelligentsia, those are the names of philosophers whose work is forms the basis of modern philosophies. The atheist was refuting Craig's stupid claim that there has been a revolution in philosophy in last fifty years by pointing out whose work is still the basis of it.
