  • 113: WIT III: The Reliability of the Bible
    Now we move into the religious section of Kirk's book and find Mr. Hastings no more prepared to tackle theological ideas than scientific ones. In addition to covering Kirk's weird ideas about the reliability of the Bible, we read some Amazon reviews of "What Is Truth?", dramatically re-enact some of Kirk Hastings' Irreligiosophy comic strips, and engage in some serious literary criticism of one of his fan fiction Superman stories.

  • 107: Q
    We discuss the Q hypothesis, which attempts to make sense of those similarities in Matthew and Luke that are not found in Mark by positing a lost gospel that consists primarily of sayings of Jesus, possibly written by his earliest followers in rural Galilee. When removed from Matthew and Luke, Q has some interesting things to say.

  • 105: The Ten Commandments
    In this episode, we take apart the Ten Commandments: what are they, where did they come from, why do we care, and what do they mean? Do they actually form the basis for American jurisprudence? Should they be engraved on monuments everywhere? Do we even have the right ones?
