The rational one would be "yes"; when you see that something is wrong, you admit that it's wrong.

Craig said no. Even if he knew his religion was wrong, he would still think it was right.

I know you're itching for it, so why not just post the youtube video where that happened? Wink

Actually, I think it was something he wrote about in one of his books. But here he is, confirming it in writing on his own website. And here's a podcast where he dresses up his base presuppositionalism with quotes from Plantinga. Here he is, saying this:

Quote:But I think you can see that the issue isn’t what it would take to get me to abandon my faith, but are there circumstances under which I would be rationally obliged to abandon my faith? And the answer to that latter question seems to me to be, No. The witness of the Holy Spirit is what Alvin Plantinga calls an intrinsic defeater of the defeaters brought against Christian belief. The warrant it brings to Christian faith will always exceed the warrant brought against Christian faith by various objections. So Christian faith is unfalsifiable for the person who attends to the witness of the Holy Spirit, not in the sense that are no conditions we can imagine under which Christianity would be false but in the sense that such a person will always have sufficient warrant to continue in Christian faith, even in the face of objections he can’t answer.

Gross. Undecided

And just for fun, here's WLC being directly asked "doesn't this crap beg the question?"

His answer was essentially "No, it's not begging the question, because I know it's correct." Rolleyes

The man is a liar and a conman, and the fact that H_M promotes him so much indicates that he's either a dupe, or the same.
