Disclaimer:

This podcast is intended for anyone and everyone interested in honestly and critically engaging with different religious perspectives, irreligious perspectives, criticisms, and analyses of religion in general.

Two quotes to consider:

“The failure to treat religion ‘as religion’–that is, the refusal to ratify its claim of transcendent nature and sacrosanct status–may be regarded as heresy and sacrilege by those who construct themselves as religious, but it is the starting point for those who construct themselves as historians.”

—Bruce Lincoln (born 1948)

“Even in the Bible we find differences between the priestly and prophetic writings, between early and late traditions in the Four Gospels. We find them, too, in the classics of church history and in the denominational interpretations of the Bible today. Revelation cannot be separated from them.

“…But there is no pure revelation. Wherever the divine is manifest, it is manifest in ‘flesh,’ that is, in a concrete, physical, and historical reality, as in the religious receptivity of the biblical writers.”

—Paul Tillich (1886-1965)
