http://www.bethinking.org/craig - Don't forget about Dr. Craig's UK 2011 Tour!

http://reasonablefaith.org - (This video would not have been possible without the help of user youtube.com/birdieupon). This is William Lane Craig's debate with atheist A. C. Grayling. Oddly, Grayling claimed he never debated Dr. Craig [1] when it's obvious they did! The video is proof of that. Here they debate the problem of evil.

Dawkins' mods are censoring people on RD.net who try to point this evidence out to him. Following the "source" link (in the info section) to get to Dawkins' post (now number 54, then 52) and you can click to the end of the thread to leave a message, if you wish.

@Birdieupon LOL! I'm glad people are haunting him about this.

[Birdieupon]

So, cast your vote:

A) Did Grayling Lie?

B) Is he suffering from senility?

:-)

[drcraigvideos]

@Birdieupon It's A.

I have been wondering. Someone who does not worship God and has not been made sufficiently aware of the true God, through little fault of their own (place of birth, parents, education etc.) will be consigned to Hell for not worshipping God. Is this correct? If so does this fit in with the notion of God being loving? I accept that free will can give rise to evil in this life, but this person is also subjected to unavoidable eternal damnation in Hell. I wonder if this consistent with God's love?

[StygianDysnomia]

@Birdieupon Probably both. A. B. Grayling.

@Supernegromagic

Lol, but the funny part is they call religious universities evil for having affiliation with religion.

[soccerdanny4]

@UniversalSleuth The comment is foul, however, he is talking of a time where ac grayling claimed that he did not actually debate William Lane Craig. Silly, because as you can see, the video....

@RosesTimes

Uhhh... That's an unbelievably foul mouthed assessment of the results of a debate about God.(!) Assuming God does exist (and I am confident that he does), This kind of statement does nothing to display the character and goodness of God.

[CharlesDilkes]

Craig is articulating the work done by Alvin Plantinga on the problem of evil - Plantinga is considered the greatest living philosopher of religion, he is, incidentally (and not surprisingly) a Christian.

I don't really understand how Grayling, a professional philosopher whose waded into the religion debate, can not of heard the argument, or read the work, before.

[terminat1]

Dr. Craig always dominates his opponents.

[JonnyWiseGuy2764]

Haha what is Grayling on about!? He is talking to himself it's true :P

[Falcondick69]

if you listen to grayling talking the way he talks and what he talks about almost makes it sound like he is mentally insane, like literally does anyone els enotice it seems like he is talking to himself rather than adressing anything?

[JCrownwell]

@Birdieupon

It looks like he did make an admission that he "forgot" about the debate, and gives an excuse for it. Even though it looks contrived, I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.
