THIS WAS THE FIRST DEBATE I EVER LISTENED TO. ITS WHAT SPARKED MY INTEREST TO EXAMINE THE EVIDENCE FOR THE CHRISTIAN FAITH. THIS WAS A HIGH PROFILE DEBATE. AN ESTIMATED 7500 PEOPLE SHOWED UP AS WELL AS HUNDREDS OF RADIO STATIONS BROADCAST WHAT WAS CALLED “THE GREAT DEBATE”. THE DEBATE WAS SPONSORED BY WILLOW CREEK COMMUNITY CHURCH. OF THE 8000 PEOPLE WHO SHOWED UP ALMOST 1000 CLAIMED TO BE ATHEIST’S, AGNOSTICS AND SKEPTICS. LOTS OF PLANNING TOOK PLACE BEFORE THE EVENT. BOTH SIDES (ATHEIST AND CHRISTIAN) WERE TOLD TO FIND THEIR BEST REPRESENTATIVE TO DEFEND THEIR WORLDVIEW. DEFENDING CHRISTIANITY WAS WILLIAM LANE CRAIG. DEFENDING ATHEISM WAS FRANK ZINDLER. ZINDLER WAS SAID TO BE THERE ACE. A BULLDOG WHEN FACING CHRISTIANITY. AT THE END OF THE DEBATE THE AUDIENCE WAS TOLD TO PUT THEIR BIAS ASIDE AND VOTE ON WHO MADE THE BETTER CASE BASED PURELY ON THE EVIDENCE.
