Craig’s “Historical Evidence” for the Death of Jesus – Part 3

Bradley Bowen | May 30, 2014

As a Christian apologist who defends the claim that ‘Jesus rose from the dead’, William Craig takes upon himself a heavy burden of proof. To meet the burden of proof Craig must put forward powerful historical evidence to prove that ‘Jesus actually died on the cross’. But in most of his books, articles, and debates … Craig’s “Historical Evidence” for the Death of Jesus – Part 3

Craig’s “Historical Evidence” for the Death of Jesus – Part 2

Bradley Bowen | May 30, 2014

Although Christian apologists bear the burden of proof to show that ‘Jesus actually died on the cross’, William Craig usually ignores this issue in his books, articles, and debates defending the resurrection of Jesus.

Anyone who asserts that ‘Jesus rose from the dead’ takes on a burden of proof, and because this is an extraordinary claim, the proof required is extraordinary proof.

He was especially interested in my thoughts about … Some Skeptical Thoughts on the Resurrection

William Lane Craig’s response is not new; … Craig Responds to My Objections to the Kalam Cosmological Argument

Worst Atheist Debate Performances (revised 22-May-15)

Jeffery Jay Lowder | March 2, 2014

In the past, I posted a list of the “Worst Atheist Debaters.” I now think that title was a mistake, since it’s possible that a single debate performance may not be representative of a person’s overall skill in debate. So I am republishing that list now as a list of the “Worst Atheist Debate Performances.” … Worst Atheist Debate Performances (revised 22-May-15)
