Loftus's arguments all too often can be paraphrased as "well, that's just absurd/ridiculous/whatever." And I was astonished (as was the audience, judging by the gasps and laughter) when Loftus ceded the point that the evidence was overwhelmingly AGAINST atheism - and this is supposed to be the guy arguing that there is no God???<br />I wish all my debates were that easy!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
