Back in 2016; this bit is worth quoting again:
[L]ife is short, the world is fully of idiotic arguments that depend on absurd premises, this is particularly true when it comes to arguments inspired by religious dogma, therefore adults with real jobs and limited time devote their time to challenging arguments. Of course, it's possible that I'm wholly wrong in treating Swinburne as an instance of awful arguments for bigotry. It is also possible, as Quine says in Pursuit of Truth, that telepathy works and empiricism is false. Many things are possible, but efficient allocation of effort is a virtue, and not only in matters of intellectual labor.
