Craig has to staple massive illogical leaps onto the end of it to shoehorn it into his bible story. The sheer number of cards he has to palm would get him banned from Vegas for life. And all that simply to prop up a stupid argument that runs out of steam before it goes anywhere.
All of WLC's arguments run out of steam immediately, once you bear in mind his "self authenticating witness of the holy spirit," and the way it leads him to reject all evidence that doesn't lead him to the christian god conclusion. Kinda hard to take any argument seriously that was only concocted in the first place to lead to the conclusion the interlocutor had already come to.
