"An Embarrassment to Atheists?" ;-)

I routinely visit the blogs of people who comment here to see if they represent themselves the same way on their own blogs. William Hawthorne has been commenting here and has been a bit annoying, so I thought I'd take a look.

He comes across as really well-read and really intelligent here, but this is far from the impression I get from his blog, and the issues he comments on. I initially saw a problem when he claimed to list books in support of Christian theism and inadvertently listed one book that was critical of it here. [Does anyone know which one?...Does he?]

Anyway, in one post on his blog he says the RRS is "an embarrassment to atheists." I am always extremely amused whenever a self-proclaimed Christian apologist is concerned for our good name. It is so disingenuous that I just bust out laughing. Imagine, a Christian actually wanting atheists to better represent themselves so they can be more effective!? It's so funny I'm still laughing, and it has nothing to do with the RRS either, since I didn't watch those videos and don't even know what he thinks the RRS has done, except that he's concerned the RRS might give us atheists a bad name. In any case, the only person who represents my beliefs is me, and as such no other atheist is an embarrassment to me. It's a non-sequitur.
