In this episode, I compare the approaches of three prominent scholars in religion:  Dr. Bart Ehrman, Dr Robert Wright, and Dr. Reza Aslan.  Ehrman has written 30 books about the New Testament that have gained much interest and favor in the faith community as well as among agnostics and atheists..  Wright's The Evolution of God takes a broader view of religion, focussing on a Darwinian perspective, pointing out how religion, politics, and economics are often intertwined.  And Aslan who is a master wordsmith has written about both Islam and Christianity.  His recent bestseller, Zealot:  the Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth has stirred a lot of interest by believers and non-believers, including the worst interview ever on Fox News.
