A link to a few pages from a debate on the existence of God, here: click
Unfortunately, that google-books' site only gives you the preface and the first few pages of the theistic argument. Even if they were going to excerpt it drastically to induce you to buy it, it would have been nice for them to include a bit of each side in the excerpt.
Anyway, in that book, William Lane Craig takes the affirmative position, that God does exist.
Craig received a doctorate in philosophy from the University of Birmingham (UK) in 1977, and another, in theology, from the University of Munich (Germany) in 1984. He is best known as the defender of a version of the cosmological argument that focuses on the alleged impossibility of an "actual infinite."
His opponent, Walter Sinnott-Armstrong, takes the atheistic side, both arguing that Craig's proofs fail and that there are good reasons to believe there is no God.
They co-authored the preface and there explained the origin of the book in live debates, and its format as due to their shared belief in fairness.
Amen, then, to their shared commitment.
