This essay began as an opening statement
in a debate with Scott Tomlinson, who is on the board of Reasonable Faith, an organization whose founder and owner is
the premier apologist of our era, William Lane Craig. The debate took place on
March 13, 2023, at the Reston Bible Church, in Dulles, Virginia. Let it be said
I didn’t do all that well. But I did good enough. Since Craig has refused to
debate me as a former student of his, I consider debating Scott a second best
choice.
What follows is an extended and updated essay
based on my opening statement, which I’m publishing after some further thought
for purposes. [You can see the original PowerPoint (with a few errors) at https://www.debunking-christianity.com/2023/03/my-debate-power-point.html] Highlighting
for emphasis is done with bold type, italics and underlining. It had a
PowerPoint to it, so it has that same feeling to it below, with added material.
