Catch Up Before You Speak Up
January 6th, 2011 Daniel Fincke Luke Muehlhauser admonishes his fellow atheists to do a better job of catching up with the current states of various aspects of the scholarly debate between theism and atheism before presuming to publicly debate theists.

July 6th, 2010 Daniel Fincke The depravity of William Lane Craig’s apologetics on behalf of the genocides goes lower than I had ever imagined before and Robert Price just decimates him, from a moral and highly illuminating historical perspective, in audio which you can hear at The Buddha Is Not Serious. Your Thoughts?

July 24th, 2009 Daniel Fincke Philosopher and theologian William Lane Craig squares off against scientist Victor Stenger on the existence of God.
