To fully express my feelings for William Lane Craig would involve intemperate language. Suffice it to say I think he is an idiot who not only misrepresents Hume in some respects, but also fallaciously argues against him in instances in which he does not misrepresent Hume. This has been common practice among those who dislike Hume's conclusions, starting when Hume was alive.

Craig is an idiot who reminds me of Pee Wee Herman for some reason
You are being very unkind to Pee Wee Herman with that remark.
