Is evidentialism a dead philosophy?

[Faith No More]

I don't know about this specific counter-argument, but every time I hear about how awesome one of Plantiga's arguments is, it turns out to be total bullshit. In fact, I can think of plenty of evidence to believe in other minds, and that second part about about the verifiability of the external world and the fallibility of our senses is hardly a blow against evidentialism. It's actually a plus for skepticism and all the more reason for empirical evidence to be necessary, two things Mr. Platinga abhors.

The man appears to be less a philosopher than he is a justifier of his own pre-conceived beliefs, and I have seen nothing from him that wasn't just a bunch of hot wind. And no offense, but the fact that you take him seriously makes me wonder if you truly are an atheist.
