Dr. Atkins forgets that the talmud discusses Jesus' miracles. The talmud was written by the Pharisees - Jesus's enemies! Why would Jesus' enemies falsely assert his miracles??

Atkins has been struggling this whole debate, hes got nothing.

Hahahaha Atkins claims that science has does explain the natural world, which I agree. However he still ha yet to make an argument....only saying that science."can" disprove God but not giving any reasons

[CharlesDilkes]

@APaleDot They're not 'theological arguments' - Craig isn't a theologian, he's a philosopher.

@2005ndcstudent To build a bigger lie on them?

[daleshankins]

If the Talmud provides favorable evidence of Jesus' miracles why was it banned by the Pope in 1553?

[APaleDot]

As much as I hate William Lane Craig, this Peter Atkins guy is just failing so hard. I mean, WLC is just spewing the old theological arguments for god. Couldn't Peter Atkins have studied up and actually come up with a strong case, instead of relying on such vacuous rhetoric?

Materialistic science is a presupposed foregone conclusion. Recording a function/process does not require a mindless origin. Western science is heavily influenced by 17th century naturalism.

Self experience has absolutely nothing to do with immortality. We can only ever know this world through self experience, so one's own experience of it is central to one's understanding of it.

I think that Atkings said something that applies to anyone who doesn't believe in God: "I won't accept it".

[DonPetruccci]

Of course you can explain everything through science. Actually anyone can explain anything through absolutely any method. What I'm concerned with is if the answers are TRUE or FALSE.

The bible answers in the same way that science "Believe with faith because I will not give you a straight answer". Still the facts shows that the Bible is true and more reliable that science.
