William Lane Craig

From Conservapedia

William Lane Craig is a renowned Christian scholar, philosopher, and apologist. He currently holds the position of Research Professor of Philosophy at the Talbot School of Theology in La Miranda, California.

Born 23 August 1949, at age sixteen W. L. Craig pledged his life to Jesus Christ, his Lord and Savior. Thus began a career, indeed a calling, dedicated to the Gospel. Craig completed a B. A. at Wheaton College in 1971, and two M. A. degrees at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in 1974 and 1975 (in the philosophy of religion and church history), and a Ph. D. from the University of Birmingham (England) in 1977. Craig also received a D. Theol. from the University of Munich in 1984, where he studied under the famous Wolfhart Pannenberg.

Craig is known for his Christian apologetics, specifically concerning the Resurrection, the existence of God, and theocentric ethics. In numerous publications, and public debates, Craig has argued that the truth of the physical Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the most reasonable explanation for the known historical facts, that God’s existence can be known by examining causation, and that the foundation for ethical action is necessarily belief in God.
