Not like Apologists at all. Atheist like Oppy take issue with Atheists like Quentin Smith on certain arguments or Theists like Wes Morrison take issue with other Theists like Craig on specific theistic arguments.<br /><br />Interesting....:-)BenYachovhttp://www.catholic.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954608646904080796.post-75894496725817810242009-11-09T13:42:27.664-08:002009-11-09T13:42:27.664-08:00The link for Pruss's review of Oppy.The link for <a href="http://ndpr.nd.edu/review.cfm?id=9563" rel="nofollow">Pruss's review of Oppy</a>.Brandonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06698839146562734910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954608646904080796.post-26662327604196308842009-11-09T13:19:23.723-08:002009-11-09T13:19:23.723-08:00Bem,

I remember loving the review. <br /><br />As far as I remember, Oppy makes some usual freshman mistakes about the (so called) cosmological argument ("It doesn't prove that God is eternal!"...snore...) and he scores some points with arguments that have a long history of being doubted not only by atheists, but by theists as well.<br /><br />James ChastekAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954608646904080796.post-35010785573415766612009-11-09T04:22:30.685-08:002009-11-09T04:22:30.685-08:00It's off topic, but I'm curious if you (do...It's off topic, but I'm curious if you (doc Feser) agree with Graham Oppy's recent book "<i>Arguing about Gods</i>", where he argue that no philosophical argument for theism or atheism is good enough to change the minds of reasonable participants in the God debate.<br /><br />He examines Aquinas' arguments too, and the arguments of atheists like Dawkins and others.Bemnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954608646904080796.post-7942300259946564882009-11-09T04:22:14.657-08:002009-11-09T04:22:14.657-08:00It's off topic, but I'm curious if you (do...It's off topic, but I'm curious if you (doc Feser) agree with Graham Oppy's recent book "<i>Arguing about Gods</i>", where he argue that no philosophical argument for theism or atheism is good enough to change the minds of reasonable participants in the God debate.<br /><br />He examines Aquinas' arguments too, and the arguments of atheists like Dawkins and others.Bemnoreply@blogger.com
