We talk a lot about Christian theology on this podcast, but have you ever heard the perspective of an atheist? How would an atheist perceive the various debates and topics within Christian theology? How powerful do they find the arguments for God's existence? What would be their views on the idea of salvation?On this episode, we intend to find out. We're joined by Cambridge scholar Emily Qureshi-Hurst, whose new book, Decoding the Cosmos, explores topics in Christian theology and their intersection with physics.

Whelp, it's the end of season three at Spiritually Incorrect, and we're taking our regular break. We'll be back in two weeks, but in the meantime, enjoy this fun little reflection from us!

In a world where so many questions arise about right and wrong, one question that has persistently popped up is: Is there even such a thing as an absolute right and wrong?In this thought-provoking episode, we delve into one of the most fundamental debates in philosophy and theology: Does objective morality require the existence of God? We explore whether moral truths exist independently of human opinion and, if so, whether those truths can stand without a divine foundation.

David Artman, author of "Grace Saves All: The Mystery of God's Inclusive Love," dives into a lively mock debate defending universalism against annihilationism and traditional eternal-conscious torment. The discussion heats up as participants engage with scriptural references and philosophical arguments about divine justice, free will, and human responsibility. Tensions rise as they explore the complexities of hell, divine love, and the implications of grace, ultimately challenging each other's perspectives while promoting a robust theological dialogue.

In this engaging discussion, David Artman, host of the Grace Saves All podcast and author of 'Grace Saves All', passionately defends universalism. He tackles tough questions around salvation, exploring the complexities between grace and traditional views of Hell. David shares insights from his interviews with notable figures in Christian universalism and discusses the implications of universal restoration on faith and God's goodness. With humor and thoughtful reflections, the conversation captivates listeners while addressing deep theological tensions.

Last episode, we heard a spirited defense of universalism from the ever charitable Jordan Wood. This week, we hear the other side. Can Hell be defended? Is it impossible to believe in an all-loving God and eternal torment for the unredeemed? Here to tackle this monumental task is Fr. James Dominic Rooney, whose book No Hope in Hell offers a philosophically robust and up-to-date defense of the traditional view of Hell.

Jordan Wood, a professor of theology at Belmont University and author of "The Provocateur," dives into the provocative topic of universalism, asserting that everyone, even the most unrepentant, may ultimately be saved. The conversation spans biblical interpretations of salvation and hell, contrasting traditional views with alternative perspectives. Wood's insights challenge simplistic beliefs, inviting a deeper exploration of God's grace and the complexities of salvation. The discussion also humorously reflects on academic rivalries and the enduring relevance of faith today.

The so-called "Gnostic" Gospels have been the subject of innumerable books (including the famed The Da Vinci Code), documentaries, and scholarly fascination. These texts are often said to have been suppressed by the early church in order to sanitize the story of Christ, creating the "orthodox" version passed down to us. How much truth is there to these claims? Do these gospels pose a threat to the traditional claims about Jesus and his teachings? Here to help us through this issue is the esteemed New Testament scholar Craig Evans, author of the book Fabricating Jesus (as well as a host of other titles).
