Bart was the easy winner here, but that might be because the topic was so bold an assertion for Licona to make.

I said "oh man, I love that dude, he was a cool king that did some good, then didn't do enough, but later did a lot of good and was good in the eyes of the lord. My pastor was there and said "no, Asa did evil in the eyes of the lord" and I was like "woah, are you sure? I'm certain he did good." Guess what? It depends which book you read *head smack*. I was like "huh, why is that different, this upsets me". But when you're that indoctrinated, you find any reason you can other than 'it's not reliable'.

@LightningSonic9 жыл бұрын
Chloe Seconds (Comment got longer than I planned. But please read. Thanks.) Wait, why do you say Christ doesn't exist? Do you go so far as denying Jesus' historical existence? Even Bart Ehrman would never go so far, and he's an extreme skeptic. (He probably actually scorns such "historians".) No sober historians deny Jesus' historical existence. I will tell you why I can say you hate Jesus Christ. It is revealed in your entire attitude. You treat the subject of Christianity as one big fat joke, when it is thanks to this religion that you enjoy many of the benefits you possess today. Take education for example. Christians were the ones that started universities and libraries hundreds of years ago. They were also the ones that showed great interest in the natural sciences, since they understood that God designed things intelligently. Did you know that until the mid 19th century doctors and nurses in hospitals only rarely washed their hands, even going from dissecting a corpse to delivering children, resulting in many, many deaths? Ignaz Semmelweis, an Austrian-Hungarian physician enforced in his own hospital that a rule that staff should wash their hands in a chlorinated solution of lime before each examination. He knew thousands of women were needlessly dying every year and nobody would listen to him. But you know it caught on because today we take these things for granted. (I've heard people say he got this idea of washing hands from the Bible where it says to wash one's hands under _running_ water as opposed to stale water. Though I not verify this but would not be surprised if it was the case.) And Jesus was not some cool hippie from 2000 years ago. He was one of three possibilities: A liar, a lunatic, or Lord. Please think about these things. Why won't you just humble yourself? Can't you see that you hate the idea of having to answer to a holy just God? He is angry with the wicked every day, the Bible says. But he loves us because he wants us to return... And he will forgive, if we repent and believe in Jesus as personal Lord and Savior.
@chloeseconds88229 жыл бұрын
***** oh man, you're being nice, decent and want to have a civil discussion now. I liked it more when we were jabbing each other with a little name-calling. But ok, I guess I'll be nice too :) Ok, I'm not saying that Jesus didn't exist. I will say that the Jesus character described in the bible didn't exist because I don't believe that a virgin girl was, without her concent, impregnated supernaturally, that the son she gave birth to rose people from the dead, walked on water, healed the sick, turned water into wine, and rose from the dead himself. And no, I really don't hate anyone, let alone a made-up version of Jesus. With regard to the benefits I enjoy in my lifetime such as education or science advanced to where it is today, I don't give religion the credit you do. I'll give Christian people all the credit they deserve for their contribution to our social and scientific advancement. And perhaps some of the ideas in the bible helped or motivated those same Christians to establish and achieve certain advancements. But that does not mean that the religious teaching is true. I enjoy algebra and trigonometry invented by muslims, but I don't think Islam is true. I love democracy as I'm sure you do, too, but I don't think you believe in Zeus or any other Greek god. Bottom line is, the contribution to the society should be evaluated and judged on its own merits. Implying that those merits mean something more or that they are a proof of the supernatural is wrong. Simultaneously, horrible crimes against humanity have been and continue to be committed in the name of religion. I could argue that blows causing major setbacks to human progress have also been dealt by Christianity and Islam, but that's a long discussion. I've heard Christians claim that Jesus was either a lier, a lunatic, or a lord. How about he was neither of those. How about the possibility of others making things up about who jesus was, what he did, and what he said as they made copies of the old manuscripts by hand and translated them into multiple languages over thousands of years? Now what's more probable: the fact that Jesus was a lord or that humans made a mistake or lied? I see people make mistakes and lie every day. I've never seen a lord and neither did you. Therefore, I see no reason to humble myself before an idea made up by uneducated men thousands of years ago. What humbles me is the beauty of nature, the vastness of the cosmos, and life in all forms. And I don't want to waste one second believing silly things while I can enjoy this wonderful life, the one I know I have. Nice chatting with you, Aaron.

"-What is more probable?" That question is always, always answered "-Improbable, yes. But not impossible!". And then you end up having to talk about burden of proof. I don't think trying to explain occams razor to believers is a good tactic. They simply don't get it.

I'm confused as to why Professor Bart Ehrman debates people who are intellectually dishonest but not Richard Carrier who has solid arguments?
@thebaconized47338 жыл бұрын
+LasergunExtreme I think they remain skeptical of mythicist hypothesis for good reason. However, that Jesus existed a priori, should not be the null position. I think the majority of modern scholars, who are rightly secular, still don't apply enough pressure on their historical assumptions. I think Carrier appears to be radical not because his arguments have been seriously challenged (even Ehrman had a difficult time providing concrete evidence in his book 'Did Jesus Exist), but because the consensus of scholarship has yet to shift to a more skeptical position of the historicity of Jesus; NOT to mysticism. I do agree with you, if I can interpret what you said correctly, that Carrier's big mistake is making concrete claims of knowledge for something he cannot prove. This all being said, I think the problem lies with each side. Skepticism should be the first stop in investigating any claim.

@@varunkurup300 Alexander the Great? If there was no archeological evidence that confirmed the contemporary historical record then we would. There is no archeological evidence for anything Jesus is said to have done and no contemporary historian seemed to have noticed Jesus and then you have the gospels that can't even have happened in the same time, specifically the vastly different stories of his birth, one happened during the reign of a Syrian governor and in another Jesus was born after the death of the same governor. Different last words, different people seeing the tomb empty, angels giving different messages to different people and in some stories no message was given. There was no census telling people to look for the city of their ancestors. Prisoners sentenced to death were buried in mass graves, etc. etc. In none of the stories people likely saw Jesus after his death. There was exactly one person who claimed to have seen Jesus in a vision while other people were with him. That's hearsay. It's claimed that a group of people saw Jesus alive. That's hearsay upon hearsay. How often in the history of humanity have we seen a dead person be resurrected and confirmed? Try it for yourself. Jump before a train and come back from the dead. You'd be the first. It's highly unlikely that any of the hearsay is anywhere near correct. So there's no evidence and it's highly unlikely. The claims about Alexander are consistent with reality, making it at least possible. Independent historians telling many of the same stories and being reliable about other facts make it believable that he actually existed and much of the stories is true. Archeological evidence confirming the historical records make it pretty certain that he existed and that the historical records aren't similar by coincidence but because they were based on a real person and actual facts. None of that can be said about Jesus. The writers of the gospels were anonymous and the gospels don't line up and the archeological evidence contradicts all of the gospels.

In spite of the handicap of an increasing case of laryngitis Mike Licona began this debate well with an excellent coverage of the means for determining historical truth and a four point test for checking the veracity of individual items. Unfortunately his presentation exploded the moment he introduced this three criteria for concluding that the resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth was an historical event: what he called the undisputed facts of the crucifixation of Jesus, his appearance to many disciples and his appearance to and conversion of Paul. Bart Ehrman chopped these "facts" into firewood in short order. Further, since miracles are, by definition the least probable explanation for anything they are unacceptable historical explanations.

I was hoping (because I enjoy rooting for underdogs) that Mr. Licona's arguments were going to be strong. Alas.

We don't have to believe in God to prove that a person may be resurrected.

Bart: 1. I was surprised that you didn't mention that plenty of people have been martyred for beliefs that Christian fundamentalists would not agree were true, Joseph Smith, Jones Town, Nine-eleven and other Muslim suicide missions. 2. You may wish to consider the claim by neurology professors that Paul of Tarsus provides sufficient written clues to provisionally diagnosis him with Temporal Lobe Epilepsy, a partial seizure disorder that produces vivid ecstatic hallucinations, hyper-graphia, hyper-religiosity and sudden religious conversion behavior (often in serial fashion to multiple religious faiths).

Sometimes debators from either side are so in over their heads it is apparent from almost the start. Other times, the debate being "won or lost" can come down to one side getting something past the opponent. Something that isn't pointed out and highlighted as bullshit. It's like a game of chess. Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing...boom. 1 move...1 error can cost you the game. Ive been listening in the backround. Licona wasn't impressive. Ive heard that stuff before. Ehrman...had some great stuff, phrased perfectly etc. I don't know licona. I havent made up my opinion of him. However...this part set off my alarm bells. 50:10 ...."It is a historical fact that some of jesus' followers came to believe that he had been raised from the dead soon afyer his execution" That statement has so many holes in it. Stating that some people believed x has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not it happened...or if the text is reliable. Have no idea if followers actually believed that. Have texts...potentially reliable stating that, but they aren't necessarily reliable being potentially decades and decades if not a century apart from the alleged event. So...have no clue if thise followers actually did believe. But even if they did believe that....and even if the texts are accurate....theit belief has nothing to do with the veracity. Do you know what the average "educated" american believes?! Beliefs can be so far from the truth that what people believe can be completely irrelevant. Licona making that statement, to me, is what a snake does. I label WLC a snale bc he does that too. He makes misleading statements that for a variety of reasons either arent caught or arent responded to. I know what you're doing and I don't like it

@davidrichardson86288 жыл бұрын
+LasergunExtreme: No...not a miracle and not the virgin Mary! I was aware of the Zeitoun light show as it happened and remember it being shown on the evening news as it continued to happen over a couple of years. The point regarding the Zeitoun lights is a comparison with the "500+ eye witnesses" of the resurrected Jesus when there was no modern way to capture the event compared with the Zeitoun event which was caught on movie film, still photos, plus eye witnesses in the tens of thousands.... The people who saw the lights on top of the church in Zeitoun were predisposed to believe it was the virigin Mary because they were mostly Catholic and predisposed to believe that Mary has made other appearances so they saw what they wanted. This begs the question, did the reported 500+ NT witnesses of the resurrected Jesus see something like the Zeitoun light show and interpret it in a similar manner. Also, near the end of Jesus life his followers left him...disillusioned with his teaching, except the disciples...who also left him and went into hiding after the arrest. Therefore it begs the question, how were 500+ people left to witness anything regarding a person who had only a handful of followers at his execution.
