I Don't Have Enough Faith to be an Atheist
#46
RE: I Don't Have Enough Faith to be an Atheist
I watched a bit of a debate Turek did against Hitchens the other day; the guy literally title dropped his own book into the conversation. "I don't have enough faith to be an atheist!" he proclaimed, directly after stating that atheists believe everything came from nothing, and just before launching into the Kalam cosmological argument and the moral argument for the existence of god.

The irony of it all was almost palpable, and when Hitchens took to the stage and opted to not address a single one of those awful points, I had to switch off or else get progressively angrier.
