The Christian conflict

Christianity holds that you are a sinner, miserable and in need of A God to send his son down to save you, but you are a worm. However, the entire universe was made for you. These two claims are not only mutually exclusive, but seek to compensate for one another.

  2. I thought the topic was "Does God Exist". Craig doesn't even need to defend attacks against Biblical claims. C'mon Hitchens! Try harder!

  6. Whoops, I just realized my statement is totally wrong. I forgot Craig introduced the empty tomb argument. For some reason I thought he was taking the purely natural theology approach. Sorry!
