I avoided him like the plauge for the most part. Garbage in, garbage out.
I have seen clips of his debates and it made me very angry because he was knowingly and intentionally turning people from God. And he was good at it. In my mind that makes him evil.
Is it theoretically possible for him to have a deathbed conversion? Sure. Likely? Not a chance.
And frankly I am rather disgusted at all the people fawning over him.
I'm with you on this one. He struck me as arrogant and mean. He had a way with words in the same way a really good thief would be in his craft. A unique talent but immoral.
