I don't even want to waste my time thinking about this kind of exercise. What a waste of public attention.
It's not a waste of exercise if you go there prepared and ready to use both good logic and rhetoric (that's what Shelly Kagan did and why I believe he crushed WLC in the discussion). The problem with most of the atheists who challenge WLC is that despite having very good logic on their side, their rhetorical skills are relatively poor, making it really easy for someone experienced in debates like WLC (regardless of his views) to play around with their words and make them seem like fools in the eyes of the audience.
