I can't believe people believe in a childish, jealous god! Can't people see that this is purely human-created bullshit? It's ridiculous.

Richard Dawkins is awesome.

@ikawpipa

If Dawkins did not study his lesson , it would be an easy match for Craig. But if Dawkins studies his lesson, he will run over Craig. But Dawkins had to study some physics for fine tuning argument, mathematics for cosmological argument, some history for Jesus case.

Victor Stenger did his homework and Craig definetly failed. Or Shelly Kagan in morality issues.

@ikawpipa I generally like Dawkins but I did not find rational. I also find Craig's literally obsession with Dawkins is interesting.

There is no doubt that WLC is a good debater. But most arguments for God's existence dated back to Aristo (Prime mover etc etc). And WLC is using same arguments with same sentences for 20 years, but somehow most of his opponents acted on debates like they hear those arguments for the first time.

is it rational that Richard Dawkins is running away from William Craig?!?

@PatriotTrueAmerican Oh dear... you fell for the religious right's convoluted history... Please educate yourself, historical documents have become very easy to find with the advent of the internet. Stupid comments like these don't help your dying religion one bit. You are only making an ass out yourself and your religion if you think that you can continue to pander this bullshit

Hitler tried to rule by stuffing folks into ovens and concentration camps. Let's not try in any way to associate an educator with this type of activity. Yes, the intent of his education is to bring out truth and thus relegate religious belief to believing in the Tooth Fairy, but it's through our own rational progression,not force. Believe what ever ridiculous thing you want to believe, but if your going to use your belief to try and shut him up, you, yourself are part of the problem.

@yero77 sick? LOL Lot giving up his daughters to be raped by a mob outside his house that is sick. Then after that they live in cave and his daughters get Lot drunk and know him and have babies. How sick is that? Lot and his daughters should have been destroyed too. But I guess Yahweh is cool with insets and letting your kids be raped by a mob outside your house. But at least they have plenty of salt back then salt was very expensive.

"Barking mad." lol I love it this guy.

@DCNY31279 Yeah. Promoting knowledge, science and rational thought is really "Hitler-esque" to be sure. How anyone could even remotely draw a distinction between Hitler and Dawkins boggles the mind. I would love to hear your explanation for this rather audacious claim.
