Reply #78: it is always easier for people to criticize than to engage in productive discussion

i think much of the atheism is just knee-jerk antagonism. many people have not spent time studying the variety of religious thinkers regardless of denomination. i would like to see Bishop N. T Wright, one of the most important Christian new testament scholars writing today, debate some of these people. they would experience a real intellectual debate from a real intellectual christian, not the straw-man examples they use.
