William Lane Craig's Virtual Office
I'm newly a fan of William Lane Craig, the philosopher, theologian, writer, and speaker, thanks to dedwarmo. I look forward to reading all of his debates and articles.

I have heard, seen, and read a number of Craig debates and I have always been very impressed with him. His arguments are very tightly reasoned and there is very little fluff, something that would appeal to dedwarmo, no doubt. In fact, I gave dedwarmo a DVD of a debate between Craig and Frank Zindler (Editor of American Atheist Magazine and Director of American Atheists Press) back in July but I'm not sure if he's seen it yet.
Craig's debates are readily available in print, but the audio and video files are hard to find. Let me know if you want some links! :-)
If any of them is commercially available, I would like to request that Netflix offer them.
I would like to borrow the Craig-Zinder debate from dedwarmo.
Reading Craig is like spring cleaning for my brain.
Great idea for NetFlix! Craig's website has had CDs and DVDs for sale (though they seem to have been moved), but I prefer free :-) I would be tempted to sign up for NetFlix if they were available.
My only disappointment with Craig is his many unnecessary concessions to modern scientific opinion (the Big Bang, for instance.) I'm not sure if he does this to avoid rabbit trails, to maintain credibility among the opposition, or to take only those positions that he feels are solidly defensible scientifically and logically. His debates on the resurrection of Christ are very impressive.
