Real Seekers

In this episode, David Johnson provides his argument that the God of the Bible, if true, would be evil.

It was a couple months ago that I had the privilege of interviewing my two Conservative/Republican Christian friends, Dr. Tony Costa and Teddi Pappas, speaking about politics through the lens of Christianity.  Now, Dr. Linda Seger joins me to discuss politics and Christianity from the other side other side of the political spectrum as a Democrat and Joe Biden supporter.  We discuss issues ranging from indivdualism vs. collectivism, to the use of violence in politics, to homosexuality and abortion.

Enjoy :) 

This show is part of a series of 5-6 shows on S&S, I was asked to debate the famous internet Atheist Vaal on the issue of Moral Ontology.

Enjoy!

Alright, well this one really was a special treat for me; I've been a fan of Dr. Instone-Brewer since 2011 when he presented at the very first Unbelievable? conference.  In this episode we look at Jesus and the NT in the light of Second Temple Judaism and the Rabbinic literature.  As Rabbinic and NT scholar, David is well positioned to answer my questions on this front.

Enjoy the show :)

David Smalley, though under the weather, pulls no punches in this great discussion on the essential Christian doctrine of the Penal Substitution and Jesus' atoning sacrifice on the Cross for our sins.  Everything from Bible errors to the doctrine of Hell are addressed along the way.

Enjoy!

In this episode we assess what religions are and how one might explain the rise of the various religions across the world- why are humans so seemingly inherently religious.  Towards the end we go back and forth on the Gospel Message in terms of Jesus Incarnation and Death for our sins.

Fellow Christian apologist Marvin Wallace reached out to ask me to post up his long-awaited debate with David J.- the Atheist host of S&S.  It's been a long time coming and I can say the show doesn't disappoint!

In this episode I discuss the Skeptical argument from a Biblical error in the creation account of Genesis.  In doing so I debate with an Atheist, David J. the genre of Genesis being "Mytho-History" and discuss some of the newest scientific findings about our Solar System from the 21st century space probe missions.

I (Dale) was a guest on David Smalley's Dogma Debates Podcast to discuss the important Abraham Test issue and whether it is moral to be willing to sacrifice your child if you knew that a Morally Perfect God told you to do so.  After some initial small talk on some side issues, we get straight into assessing this question philosophically in the light of the 3 main sources of Moral disagreement (i) Factual differences, ii) differences on the nature of the affected Moral principle/s & iii) differences on the Moral Hierarchy).

The topic starts around the 1 hour mark.

This was not my finest hour, I was not expecting David to be as emotional as he was in this show.  In this old episode of S&S, David Johnson (the Atheist) tries to lay out his case for why he thinks the Bible (or at least some of its passages) is/are "atrocious".  The ambiguity of the Creation account in Genesis and the immorality of slavery being allowed and Christian exclusivity are vigorously argued by the Atheist to disprove Christianity.  There were definitely some explosive or passionate moments in this one.
