Note: Yargh! There have been some issues with the microphones as of late (specifically this episode and the last), but I think you will really enjoy this conversation, as Jesus's angelic Christology is a hotly debated topic among both evangelical Christian apologists and theologians and secular academics alike.

In this episode, Xavier and Rylan debate whether or not the Biblical authors viewed Jesus as an angelic being.

Happy Memorial Day American listeners and international listeners alike!

Firstly, sorry for the amplified breathing in the background when my grandfather is talking (technical difficulties), which I tried to get rid of, but you can still hear some of it. Secondly, if you can get past that, the interview really shows a lot of the tension and intensity of the Cold War Era from a firsthand witness, which is a really special thing. Thirdly, stay tuned for a planned episode entitled “Roman Catholicism: Interviewing My Deacon Grandpa." This should come out relatively soon. "Episode 24 | Ahmadi Muslim Imam Interview" should be coming out even sooner.

In this episode, Xavier explains Manichaeaism, a universalist, syncretic, and Christian-influenced religion that contained Jesus, Zoroaster, and the Buddha as prophets and was arguably the world's first world religion.
