Let me tell you a story of Hamza Tzortzis - the CEO of iERA Organization. I am more of like his PA and loves setting up debates for him with Atheists.
He had over 50-60 debates with Atheists through iERA platforms and alhumdulillah he performed an outstanding job in all of them.
There is a VERY well-known Atheist based in America and I don't want to name him because we might have a chance to have a debate with in the future.
I emailed that Atheist on behalf of Hamza - because he often speaks against Islam, iERA, never misses Atheism related conferences. He is a very well known personality.
So I contacted him that we (iERA) want to setup a debate between him and Hamza Tzortzis. You know how did he respond to the email?
He replied,
"NOOOOOOOO!!!"
He didn't even bother to write "Thank you!" but rather did a childish mockery.
Are you talking about Ron Reagan? 
[laughs]
No, I don't want to reveal the name. He isn't even a giant Atheist compare to him.
So the fact of the matter is that these people are cowards when they see a compatible contender who can smack-down their worldview.
They will debate no one but those who are lesser in the knowledge and who they can overcome easily.
Just like Pervez Hoodhboy of Pakistan. If you present an Islamic academic who Pervez finds as an intellectual threat to him, he won't debate that person.
But if you present him a local student of Theology - he would be so much happy, have a dialogue and make a mockery out of him.
So, these people are intellectual cowards. Even if you happened to watch Richard Dawkins debates and discussions on YouTube.
He spends most of his time arguing and debunking school kids, random creationist, priests and clerics.
But he fears to argue with Wiliam Lane Craig.
- Who I think is the most famous Christian philosopher in States after Alvin Plantinga.
He directly challenged Richard Dawkins for a debate when Dawkins was in Oxford. Dawkins rejected to have a discussion with him and gave a very lame excuse.
Richard Dawkins replied to William Lane Craig,
"That would look great on your CV, not so good on mine."
This is the utmost rubbish thing to say. If he doesn't want to debate nobodies then why most of his debates on YouTube are with the students or creationists or local clerics?
So he's not afraid of nobodies. But once he smells an intellectual threats like Dr. Craig, he runs away like a coward.
In one of Oxford University's campuses they had an open event about faith related dialogues and left one chair emptied for Dawkins but Dawkins didn't come because Dr. Craig was there.
So they are nothing but so called custodians of logic and reasoning, who only hunt those down who they can overcome easily.
