Jan 16, 2024
Former Methodist minister turned atheist Leslie Scrace critiques the Bible's morality in 'An Unbeliever's Guide to the Bible'. Church pastor Chris Sinkinson challenges Scrace's approach and emphasizes the importance of God in the Bible's moral framework. They discuss specific books, moral implications, humanist values, Jesus' reaction, and the value of humans. The debate includes the trustworthiness of the Bible, the inclusion of the Song of Solomon, the resurrection of Jesus, and skepticism surrounding it.
