I'd say he's reasonable on most things, but not particularly interesting.

God and Other Minds is fascinating m8

I don't agree. God and other minds are both mistaken concepts, but for quite different reasons (God being the result of sophistical reasoning, other minds the result of a category error), and he comes to the same wrong conclusions that many philosophers have for more than a thousand years.

Either way it has nothing to do with Plantinga so get out, you should have been able to tell from the OP that this is a thread for serious philosophy
