Dan Barker (atheist) vs Hamza Tzortzis (muslim)

[Angrboda]

I saw Barker debate Tzortzis last winter, to a crowd surprisingly packed with a lot of Muslims. Tzortzis was surprisingly effective, no doubt because of his relaxed, cheerful style. Barker, imo, uses too much aggression in his openings, and alienates more than persuades as a result. I talked with Barker a bit at a book signing. He's a real nice guy, in spite of his "bulldog" style of presentation.
