Awesome! Just in case you change your signature, I'm gonna copy and paste it below. I was too lazy to look for the exact words! Lol..Thanks!
"If you wake up tomorrow morning thinking that saying a few Latin words over your pancakes is going to turn them into the body of Elvis Presley, you've lost your mind. But if you think more or less the same thing about a cracker and the body of Jesus, you're just a Catholic." - Sam Harris
Also, there were a couple of really great objections raised by the audience that had Craig pinched in the corner a couple of times. One of them gave Harris the segway needed to illustrate how psychotic Christianity is! That was especially enjoyable. The objection raised pertaining to a lack of consensus that Craig fallaciously avoided was also fun to watch. I really enjoy Harris' calm approach to Craigs insistent rubbish. Always a treat to watch these old debates. Shelly Kagan has some good stuff to say at the end of his morality debate with Craig as well. Kagan aslo has some pretty interesting Philosophy lectures from when he taught it at Yale. I'm not sure if he's still there or not. Interesting guy though.
