Carrier vs. Marshall

[Tea Earl Grey Hot]

I think Carrier clearly won this debate. Everything Marshall said was so cringe worthy. He's one of the most illogical "academic" apologists I've heard. Everything he said could be a potential keyboard cat fail video.

Marshall at one point in the debate (paraphrase): "If the world was as Carrier wanted [i.e. no suffering] then I'd want to take a gun to my head but I'm afraid flowers would shoot out the barrel."

I haven't watched the debate, but if you're talking about David Marshall, the guy is kind of an ass. He's got an Amazon account, and he goes around trashing negative reviews of books that he likes. John Loftus has tangled with him extensively, and there are several point by point reviews of his work on the Arizona Atheist's blog.

I've watched this debate. Don't bother. Marshall blathers on incoherently and Carrier basically has so little to refute that he gives up like three minutes of his rebuttal time because he simply has nothing else to say.

To call this a merely a win by Carrier is being too charitable; It was a nuclear holocaust.
