William Lane Craig badmouthed Donald Trump.

RE: William Lane Craig badmouthed Donald Trump.
Yeah, Dilahunty is one of the few people who would clearly thrash him and defeat his sophistry.

I think that Shelly Kagan absolutely annihilated him and I think that Billy underestimated him greatly and would have never agreed to debate him if he knew how walloped he was going to get.

That was all about the Kalam crapfest that WLC promotes. No idea why anyone would find Kalam even vaguely convincing of anything And it absolutely does not get to a judeo-christian deity at all'.

CS was way too charitable to WLC and his recent video that supposedly corrected his previous so-called "mistake" is also way too charitable to the Kalam argument.

And we must be careful of overcharitability because '‘there is no statement so absurd that no philosopher will make it" - the philosopher Cicero, 44 BC.


But CS is still overall fantastic as is his channel.

Not familiar with CS, so I cannot comment one way or another.

I am familiar with WLC and he ranks a shoddy second place behind Bruggencate in the apologist top ten.

Sye Ten Bruggencate is the most repugnant and pathetic "debater" I've ever witnessed. Even by the standards of a presuppositionalist apologist! And THAT'S saying something!

At least Ray Comfort is unintentionally funny.

RE: William Lane Craig badmouthed Donald Trump.
I saw recently William Lane Craig spout the idiocy that tolerating and normalizing homosexuals is dangerous because what is then stopping you to normalize pedophiles.

See it at 11:55




And yet this idiot is considered some sort of a reputable philosopher.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Haven't heard that "argument" from the far right in a long time.  Still, it has a long, long history -- interracial marriage, masturbation, women wearing pants, etc.  I have no problem with men shamelessly cross-dressing in public, but, for me, such is strictly gender specific.  Still, if I would met Craig in public and would pass in his eyes as a full fledged biological female, I must confess that I would feel so flattered!  Question is, "When will his organization, Reasonable Faith, be listed as a hate group?"

Outlaw coffee. I can't count the number of times an innocent cup of coffee has led to sex.
