If he has gotten himself involved in vitriolic apologetics I haven’t reached out to that quarter in order to read it. If he has, that is unfortunate.
Care to post links in which he has taken the low road rather than the high road?
As it is, however, he has put out some good stuff on Mormon theology and the like.
FOX and CNN both seem to have an agenda. And if one watches one of these networks exclusively they will have ‘blind spots’.

My guess is that a number of younger folks have never heard his name along with John E. Clark and others because of this closed loop I’m referring to.
Here is a talk given by John E. Clark given years ago:

Nowadays many of the apologetics (John E. Clark didn’t consider himself one) of yesteryear have gone down the memory hole and now we have ‘curated apologetics’ produced by critics that have a closed loop agenda and typically don’t step outside of it.
Hearing what they want to hear and disregarding the rest.
And then they come up with these ‘smoking guns’ that are anything but. Age of the internet and bubbles.
