A viral clip is making the rounds claiming an MIT professor "destroyed" the biggest argument atheists use against Christianity. Christian YouTuber Elijah Zielke certainly thinks so, nodding along to a Lex Fridman interview with MIT plasma physicist Ian Hutchinson, who argues that atheists are trapped in "scientism" and that the case for Christianity is stronger than skeptics admit.

John Lennox, billed as the world's number one Christianity expert, sat down with Steven Bartlett on Diary of a CEO and Christians across YouTube couldn't stop raving about it. There's just one problem. When Bartlett repeatedly asked for actual evidence, Lennox had none.

The “Minimal Facts” argument is often presented as the most reliable, evidence-based case for the resurrection—built only on what even skeptical scholars accept. But how strong is that foundation, really? Researcher Michael J Alter examines the famous “90% consensus” claim, the data behind it, and whether it holds up under scrutiny.

When Wes Huff appeared on Mikhaila Peterson's podcast, his historical arguments sounded compelling—but how well do they hold up when someone actually checks them?

Alex O’Connor and Trent Horn recently debated the resurrection of Jesus — but beneath the polished arguments was a much bigger problem nobody stopped to examine. Let's discuss the hidden assumptions behind the reliability of the gospels, group appearances, martyrdom claims, and whether resurrection apologists are quietly treating disputed Bible stories as established history.

Apparently no one can doubt the veracity of Matthew, Mark, Luke or John until such time as they address everything in InspiringPhilosophy's 6+ hour supercut on gospel reliability. If you know anyone who is confident of the historical reliability of the gospels, send them this video.

Jesus didn’t emerge from a vacuum. In first-century Judea, apocalyptic preachers, messianic expectations, resurrection beliefs, and end-times movements were already everywhere. Yale scholar John J. Collins explains the forgotten world that shaped Jesus—and why understanding that world may radically change how you think about Christianity’s origins.

On the verge of retirement, Bart Ehrman delivers his final lecture—only to find himself at the center of sharp criticism from William Lane Craig. What follows is a tense, fascinating clash over biblical manuscripts, archaeology, and contradictions, as Ehrman responds point-by-point to claims that many Christians take for granted.
