- Great resource!
What a great podcast! I get to Listen to all of the best arguments against Christianity; And the best arguments for Christianity.
Dr Craig’s appeal to 1 Corinthians 15:3-11 to prove a historical Jesus seems quite impotent after reading ‘On the Historicity of Jesus’ by Dr. Carrier. The Greek word for resurrection is not used in the earliest “received creed” by St. Paul. So…no resurrection required.

Audible5Stephanie ChatfieldUnited States2 years ago - Must listen
Craig is the most articulate and compelling Christian apologist of our century. Listen to the fantastic debate on the resurrection with Hector Avalos for a perfect illustration of Craig’s motivation to participate in these debates: he’s not in to compete with his opponent, but to win souls to the Christian faith. Magistral.
