Yeah, doubling down on the same bad argument isn't going to help you. As I said in the last post, and the original post, so you have no reason not to get this and are either terrible at reading comprehension or outright lying, I'm not rejecting the argument because WLC said it. I'm rejecting the argument because I have good reason to; aside from the man's long history of distorting science to fit his views, not to mention his lack of any relevant credentials, WLC has stated numerous times in print and speech that he will disregard anything that does not outright confirm his views about god, that when the evidence might contradict scripture, it is scripture that takes precedence.
The reason I reject the argument isn't because I don't like Craig, and I trust anyone willing to go back one page will be able to see your dishonest oversimplification of my position for what it is. The reason I reject it is because Craig is a presuppositionalist conman; he's ill educated, demonstrably dishonest, and states from the outset he refuses to come to the discussion honestly. Why should anyone trust the word of a man whose position is "I'm not going to consider anything that doesn't confirm what I already believe."?
