I don't believe that "Public Intellectuals Defending the Christian Faith" believe in God

I think they are just taking Christians for a ride and laugh their way to the bank, something about it just feels off and uncanny.

Take this guy for example, I must have watched 100 hours of him professing his faith, and I feel like he is frauding

I don't know, but one thing that gets me a lot - is many of these conservative "influencer" or whatever types that are all about stats/common sense/logic/etc...except when it comes to Christianity. Suddenly all of that goes out the window and it's blind faith. I'm not hating on believing in that stuff, but trying to act like you can actually make intelligent arguments (ie the Bible is the Word of God, the resurrection, Jesus was the "Son of God", etc) supporting a lot of that stuff is COPE.

I notice they are benefiting off "spreading the Gospel", if 100% of the world was converted, they'd be out of a job. Think about that.

Have you seem them defend Christianity?

Its a solid argument.

Honestly the right has a plethora of strong debaters, whereas the left doesnt. It usually comes down to name calling, character assassination from the left.

Take Charlie for instance, worlds greatest debater... Changed more minds than anyone before (the goal of a debate)... thats why they killed him

Most "faith and reason" guys like John Lennox do not defend the creation account literally, but instead make grand sounding claims about the nature of reality, the origin of the universe etc, which have absolutely nothing to do with the Christian faith specifically, but could apply to any religion such as Islam or panjabi religions

Therefore I don't trust him, he is embarrassed about the literal contents of the bible
