Hopefully it’s a good one, and the issues are addressed. Many times these debates turn into “your logic is invalid because of___”, “no, your logic is invalid because of ___”! Straw men are set up and attacked, and both sides claim victory. I’ll pray for them both!
Is Dr. Craig a good debater? I know about Hitchens. Just curious!

Deuteronomy 6:4-9
I’ve found Dr. Craig to be a pretty good debater. From what I’ve seen, I have no doubt he’ll hold his own.
What’s been your take on Hitchens, from what you’ve seen? Any argument he’s thrown out there that has been particularly strong, IYO?
Here is a downloadable mp3 file of Dr. Craig speaking on the topic of Advice to Christian Apologists.
I don’t know if there have been any really strong arguments Hitchens has thrown out. Blamig Christians for bad things (but look @ what the athiest governments of Russia and China have done…) doesn’t disprove God. He’s never, that I’ve seen, disproved the concept of God, or shown EVIDENCE that his point of view is the truth. That’s may just be because He can’t.
Maybe I’m just a bit biased though. :-)

Deuteronomy 6:4-9
I imagine that the debate, just like all debates on the existence of God, will eventually focus on the alleged notion that atheists have no ground to state that absolute moral standards exist.
Well, why not? It’s probably the weakest link in the atheist’s chain of logic. Craig is very good at voicing this argument and Hitchens was powerless against it in his debate with Douglas Wilson.
