Well, if he was just meaning to be contrary he would certainly not be the first person to do so... I don't think his point is to just disagree with people, but rather to present another way of looking at this "age old problem." I actually rather appreciate his willingness to swim upstream a bit. While I don't necessarily think we are looking at an either/or scenario I think that it might help someone to see that there are opposing views.
Even teaching getting someone that there is always someone with the opposite belief goes a long way towards getting people to think for themselves.
