Christopher Hitchens & this unbelievably lost, true idiot William Dembski, have a debate at the Preston Christian Academy which apparently they tried to censure off later. You don't want to suffer thru too much Dembski who has to read from a script thru the entire thing and even then his points are often almost self defeating.

One begins to realize it is exactly one of the chief features why evolution & deep time that bothers them so much , Hitchens speaks of the discoveries of science always unsettling. Its very much the question violence inherent in the life process on this planet that has been a never ending raw struggle for survival & death. It negates any benign creator automatically & theres really no other rational way of seeing it.

But Dembski makes the most poorly rehearsed fumbling plea/excuse of this being a fallen world, that we are all born dead, something about free will & original sin, this fellow's calling certainly wasn't philopsophy, theology or science apparently, when he tries to ad lib an example/thought experiment, watch out your barin will go numb. Dumbsky is not too unkind for this ID'iot.

Cut towards the very end , Hitchens makes one of his best speeches, even when decrying the rotten theology of Mother Teresa or pointing out Hitlers Nazi's devotion to God , we find the audience in this Christian Academy applauding, thats how clear & convincing his logic & reason is.

And serious about Dembski, for had never really listen or realized what a total muck head he is, every cliche example he uses, whether scientific or theological, has the connectedness,force & voilition of heated up marshamallow /chocolate 'smores. (and just as mashed up together, no wonder he doesn't get out much anymore into the big world)

He almost defeats himself with every new automated utterance from script, even more boring than Craig, both wind up toys proving deterministic materialism with every rote memorized archaic vagary, which never equals true logic or reason.
