In what may be the last podcast dedicated to the resurrection debate between Don Johnson and Dr. Robert Price, I give my thoughts on the whole idea of worldview as it pertains to this debate and others.  (That’s what the image in this post is about.) I also talk about the big mistake I made setting this debate up in the first place, and why the best course of action at this point may just be to chalk it up to experience and move on.   That makes it sound gloomier than it is, though.  Hope you give it a listen!

The page linked here contains a text sent to me by Don Johnson on 11/13/08 which Don asked me to post.  It contains a comment from Aaron, a listener (in black) with Don’s response interspersed in blue.  (Looks like it may be time to get a message board going in the near future…)

We continue deeper into the debate on the Resurrection of Jesus.  This time around, we have a pre-recorded presentation by Don Johnson, joined by his broadcasting partner Brandon Ridley.  Don and Brandon respond to some of the questions I posed in the last podcast, coming out of the most recent interview with Dr. Robert Price, and also provide a critique of Price’s views on the book of Mark.  It’s an interesting discussion from Don and Brandon that definitely impacts the alignment and structure of the debate as it’s developed so far.  Stay tuned for ongoing analysis and more from Robert Price.

I’m solo again this week - with another “where do we stand” analysis and a preview of what I’d like to ask Don Johnson when we meet next week.   I briefly summarize what I learned from the interview with Dr. Robert Price last week and lay out some of what I think are the key points going forward.  Is it legitimate for Johnson to require the New Testament accounts to be classified in those “deceived, deceiver, myth-maker” categories?  Is more evidence forthcoming for the truth alternative?  Are we almost done here or just scratching the surface?  Join me for more on those questions plus a story about poker-crashing, gravity-defying aliens in this week’s podcast.

The debate over the resurrection of Jesus continues this week, as I again interview Dr. Robert Price.  This time, we go into some specifics on Price’s view of the resurrection accounts in the New Testament.   Next up, we’ll hear what Don Johnson has to say about Price’s analysis.

Here is my short overview of where I think we stand with this debate, after a round of clarification with Don Johnson (see Episode 7) and going into next week’s discussion with Dr. Robert Price.

This is my attempt to lay out an overall structure of the disagreement.  I think everything we’ve heard from both sides fits relatively well into this structure, and it should provide a solid platform for launching into some more specifics.  Your feedback, comments and emails are highly valued - please keep them coming!

Here I talk with Don Johnson and his broadcast partner Brandon Ridley about my difficulties with the structure of Don’s argument so far.   While we didn’t settle everything in my mind, this was very productive for me, and I feel like this led to some substantial progress on my understanding of the overall disagreement.   Listen to episode 8, which I’ll be posting a little later, to see if you agree - then it’s on to Dr. Robert Price again next week.

More on the debate about the resurrection of Jesus.  In this episode, I divert from the plan, and rather than interviewing Dr. Robert Price as scheduled, I instead present two difficulties that I am having with the argument presented so far by Don Johnson.  My hope is to clear these difficulties up so that I can more effectively understand the structure of Johnson’s arguments.  This podcast explains the problems I’m having, and hopefully I can get these cleared up when I interview Don again next week - and then we’ll take things from there!  “A stitch in time” and all that…  I am joined by a mystery guest, however, who helps me with one of my illustrations.  Please keep the feedback and email coming.  See you next week!
