Quentin Smith (1952–2020)

This debate between two philosophers ventures into the bog of obfuscatory language and dense argumentation, not easily followed by even the well educated. Craig starts, and spends an inordinate amount of time demolishing a position his opponent doesn't even hold, forcing his opponent to defend a position that isn't his own. Craig returns ad infinitum to the problem of infinity, giving a ridiculous analogy that makes no sense at all, and insisting that this is a solid argument well grounded show more in logic. Overall, i wouldn't waste your time; Craig's arguments, once you sift out the noise, simply don't hold water, but it's difficult to follow at times, making it seem more learned and grounded than it really is. There are many better treatments of the same subject, from both sides of the argument. show less
