"Turek and Scribner might be so delusional that they are lying to themselves here, and by publishing and broadcasting this only roping in innocent dupes unintentionally. They might be bamboozling themselves, as many a loony concpiracy theorist has, who traps themelves in labyrinths of similarly convoluted bad logic. But it's also possible one or both of them knows this is a scam, and they are deliberately intending to dupe the innocent; their target: dumb Christians. After all, they well know there are rebuttals available to everything they just said—yet they never mention there even are any, much less reply to them, which is not the behavior of an honest educator. But it doesn't matter. Lying to themselves, or everyone else: neither possibility recommends their judgment to us. They clearly can't do logic; so nothing they say can be trusted to be logical. Welcome to pop apologetics."
