This is the definition of trolling. Obscene.
The Son Rises: Historical Evidence for the Resurrection of Jesus
Frequently viewed as evangelicalism’s foremost Christian apologist, William Lane Craig’s name is most often associated with his ministry organization Reasonable Faith, the name of his most famous book and also weekly podcast.
He's been around quite a while and for the longest time he was the "go-to" philosopher/theologian/apologist for Evangelical Christians when they were looking for rational answers about the Bible. He has seemed to have fallen out of favor of late, especially after he took he took a controversial (and arguably heretical) view of the nature of Christ.
He was a one trick pony in the debates, using a Lincoln-Douglas style point-counterpoint-fall method that gave many the impression that he ‘won’ those debates.
He's a Biblical determinist who has said some other dumb things like “animals don’t feel pain”.
This guy used to be a famous Protestant apologist— I (a Catholic) had heard of him.
His logic seems unhinged. If one must be baptized or believe in God to be saved, how does he think babies get to go to Heaven? Do people get to go to Heaven if they die before a certain age and then they have to be saved, or how does it work?
Just another heretic. They’re a dime a dozen these days.
He describes himself as a philosopher who practices apologetics. Rarely uses scripture.
He seems to be wobbling further from scripture.
“FReepers who is this guy?”
An idiot. By his logic, every murderer is doing his victim(s) some great favor.
I once respected Craig. But this is bonkers.
For apologetics people should stick with Gary Habermas or old time writers such as Arnold Lunn.
The man is a collossal idiot.
He just made the case for every kind of murder. He further made the case to murder every child becore its born.
Alex O’Connor will find himself at the judgement seat and be told, “Alex, where you’re going, it will be hot but, don’t worry, it won’t harm you.”
I’ve talked with him at conferences and have gone to dinner with him several times. I’m surprised that he believes this.
No idea.
I’ve followed William Lane Craig for years. He’s a brilliant man but I’ve disagreed with him on a couple of things the last couple of years. He’s also coming across as a little too arrogant in recent years.
John 3:30 He must increase, but I must decrease
Using that logic, murder doesn’t harm drug addicts and thieves and adulterers and, frankly, every human being on the planet.
Still, I’m not going to murder anyone because I think it does do them a great harm. And more importantly, our creator tells us simply not to do that.
