Lol, WLC an "Academic Christian".
Anyone can look back at old apologetics, slap their modifications on, and use it in the contemporary era; theists haven't gotten any smarter from the time the argument was originally concocted, so it doesn't suprise me that they gobble it up now, too.
My conclusion is that there is no reason to believe any of the dogmas of traditional theology and, further, that there is no reason to wish that they were true.
