Thumbs up if you keep fast forwarding though all the other speakers opening statements in order to hear Chris Hitchens own them

Craig is ridiculous....very misleading and a skilled double talker

[jackflash341]

Every single debate Craig has been in, he has always struck me as someone who avoids answering questions and claims that others avoid answering his purely because he does not find the answers satisfying.

What the fuck is William Craig talking about? Christian philosophers are oxymorons.

[Resenbrink]

Craig is a well spoken professional ignoramus.

[BjornH65]

@tublet13 I don’t have an explanation for why the universe exists. I don’t need one. Pointing out a gap in human knowledge is not evidence for the existence of a divinity. It is merely a gap.

All I am doing is rejecting the theistic explanation because they have failed to meet the burden of proof.

You assume that I don’t like the narrative that an entity created the universe to fulfill a cosmic objective. I like the story; however, what I like or dislike doesn't change reality.

Curious that a force "outside of time" would be so trenchant in the primitive Jewish zeitgeist. Commanding murder for working on Sunday, since he apparently sat in a hammock all pooped out on the first Sunday, making it appear you think you're a harder worker than him, is worthy only of laughter. The assumption that I haven't thought about the origin of the universe lends no credence to your baseless suppositions. Wisdom is realizing how much you don't know.

@JiangZiyaTabooDays Study old testament law, they were designed for the jews as a nation at that time as they were chosen by god, one of the laws is dont keep mold in your house, do you think jews knew what bacteria was back then? Your example with animals is a clear example of the difference between humans and animals which should lead you to think were different, on a christian view objective morals are not known by the bible but by them being embedded in our conscience from god.
