Edward O. Wilson – Pulitzer Prize winning biologist Edward O. Wilson. Host Robert Wright questions Wilson on many of his ideas including his once controversial thesis of sociobiology in which he argued that the human mind is shaped as much by genetic inheritance as it is by culture.

Wilson provides his opinions on intelligent design, free will, and how science and religion can potentially come together in order to save life on earth. This interview serves as an excellent introduction to the ideas of this highly influential biologist. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4975549474851602314

Brother Richard – Interviewed about the Atheist nexus on the infidel Guy show. http://lifewithoutfaith.com/?p=2039

Dr. Hector Avalos joins Infidel Guy to discuss his recent book "The End of Biblical Studies." Dr. Avalos is a Professor of religious studies at Iowa State University with degrees from Harvard and the University of Arizona. He has been on the program prior to discuss with us his very insightful work, "Fighting Words: The Origins of Religious Violence." This time he will discuss why much of Biblical Study is self-serving and dishonest. I am almost done with "The End of Biblical Studies" and I am finding it an amazing work. IG recommended.. Get it today! He confirms much of what I have been saying for years about how the Biblical Studies establishment purposefully changes meaning, conducts egregious omissions and insertions, and distorts things to serve the purpose of maintaining the Bible as meaningful and relevant in today’s modern culture. It's all a sham. http://infidelguy.libsyn.com/index.php?post_id=247751

Jaroslav Pelikan – The Need for Creeds, Speaking of Faith with Krista Tippet. For many modern Americans, the very idea of reciting an unchanging creed, composed centuries ago, is troublesome. But, Jaroslav Pelikan, who died on May 13, 2006, was a scholar who devoted his life to exploring the vitality of ancient theology and creeds. He insisted that even modern pluralists need strong statements of belief. Here, we revisit Krista's 2003 conversation with him, who, then, in his 80th year, had released a historic collection of Christian faith from biblical times to the present and from across the globe. They discuss the history and nature of creeds, and how a fixed creed can be reconciled with an honest, intellectual faith that changes and evolves. http://speakingoffaith.publicradio.org/programs/2009/pelikan/

Greg Epstein on Speaking of Faith – Exploring a New Humanism. In a recent Pew poll, 16 percent of Americans identified themselves as "unaffiliated" — atheist, agnostic, or most prominently "nothing in particular." Greg Epstein, a Humanist chaplain at Harvard, described himself that way until he discovered the tradition of humanism. He is passionate about articulating an atheist identity that is not driven by a stance against religion but by positive ethical beliefs and actions. http://speakingoffaith.publicradio.org/programs/new_humanism/index.shtml

Greg Epstien – Repossessing Virtue: Grep Estein on Human Solutions and Not Divine Ones, Speaking of Faith with Rob McGinley Myers. We last spoke to Greg Epstein in the wake of a Pew poll on the American religious landscape, finding that 16 percent of Americans identified themselves as unaffiliated, atheist, agnostic, or nothing in particular. Greg Epstein is the humanist chaplain at Harvard University, and he has been an emerging leader in trying to unify that growing population of the non-religious — to create a community driven not by a stance against religion, but by positive ethical beliefs and actions. So as we turned to Greg Epstein again, we wanted to know how he’s seen his community experiencing the current economic crisis. Epstein once defined humanism as “philosophy of life without supernaturalism that affirms our ability and responsibility to lead ethical lives of personal fulfillment aspiring to the greater good of humanity.” It turns out that the current economic crisis has refocused his community’s vision of what that “greater good” should look like. http://blog.speakingoffaith.org/post/73565275/repossessing-virtue- greg-epstein-on-human

Sam Harris – Picks a fight with God. According to the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life, an amazing 92% of Americans believe in God or a universal spirit—even one in five of self-identified atheists believe in a higher power. Ardent secularist Sam Harris isn’t deterred by those numbers, and in fact has made it his life’s mission to force the faithful to question their religious faith—Harris would even argue that the future of civilization is dependent on it. Questioning commonly held assertions and wisdom found in the Bible; seeking out debates with theologists across the spectrum, from Judaism to Christianity to Islam; and all but picking a fight with God, Sam Harris takes his secular crusade to Patt’s microphone. http://www.scpr.org/programs/patt-morrison/2010/02/12/sam-harris-picks-a-fight-with-god/

He calls into question the authority of the New Testament as scribal changes over time have changed the documents. So can we trust the scripture? Bible scholar Peter Williams believes in the reliability of the New Testament and that Bart's prognosis is far too pessimistic. http://apologetics315.blogspot.com/search/label/bart%20ehrman

Bart Ehrman and Richard Swinburne

- Bart Ehrman lost his faith altogether when he confronted the problem of how a loving, powerful God can allow suffering. In his new book "God's Problem" he states that the Bible contains different and unconvincing explanations to the issue. Richard Swinburne is a reknowned Christian philosopher. He answers Bart's objections with arguments from his own book "Providence and the Problem of Evil". http://premier.org.uk/unbelievable?mod_page=1

John Lennox vs. Richard Dawkins

- The God Delusion Debate. The debate will center on Dawkins' views as expressed in his best-seller, The God Delusion and their validity over and against the Christian faith. This will be the first significant discussion on this issue in the "Bible Belt." Consequently, we believe that it will focus much public attention on this important issue. http://richarddawkins.net/article,1707,Debate-between-Richard-Dawkins-and-John- Lennox,Richard-Dawkins-John-Lennox

Timothy Keller vs. Norman Bacrac

- Timothy Keller started Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York in 1989. It now attracts several thousand members to worship every week. His book "The Reason for God" answers the questions he is commonly asked by sceptical New Yorkers. He engages with Atheist Norman Bacrac editor of the "Ethical Record" - a Humanist publication. They debate whether Christianity's exclusive claims are arrogant, and whether people alone can be the best judge of what is right and wrong. http://www.premierradio.org.uk/listen/ondemand.aspx?mediaid={A6B31A53-8D70-44A0- 8FC1-F6C7212DD25F}

Michael Bird vs. James Crossley

- (17 Jan 09 and 24 Jan 09) Two episodes of two New Testament scholars go head to head. Michael Bird is a believer, James Crossley is not. They have different conclusions about how the Christian faith began and have written a dialogue in their new book "How Did Christianity Begin - a believer and non-Believer examine the evidence". In today's programme they debate whether Jesus himself believed he was God, as revealed in the Gospels. They go onto discuss whether the bodily resurrection of Jesus is a plausible explanation for the birth of the early church. "How did Christianity begin? A believer and non-believer examine the Evidence" is published by SPCK". (Jan 17 and 24, 2009) http://premier.org.uk/unbelievable?mod_page=1

Norman Hansen vs. Amy Orr-Ewing

- Norman Hansen lost his faith partly because of coming to doubt the historical reliability of the Bible and Jesus. Amy Orr-Ewing spends her time defending the Bible around the world - she says belief in Jesus is perfectly rational. http://premier.org.uk/unbelievable?mod_page=2

Stephen Carr vs. Canon Michael Cole

- Steven Carr has a prolific presence on the internet as an atheist blogger and debater. He contends that the early Christians did not believe in Jesus' resurrection and that the Biblical views of resurrection are contradictory. Canon Michael Cole is a veteran defender of Christian faith and responds to Steven's criticisms of the resurrection.

Nicolas Beale vs. Julian Baggini

-The most recent scientific evidence shows that the universe had to be incredibly "fine tuned" in its fundamental constants to allow life. Is this the ultimate proof of a designer God? Nicholas Beale believes so. He is the co-author of "Questions of truth" (WJK) with Christian physicist John Polkinghorne. Atheist Julian Baggini argues against Nicholas' conclusion.

Perry Marshall vs. peter Hearty

- Could the DNA that makes up the building blocks of life of every living thing on the earth be the clue to a cosmic designer? He says that anybody who comes at the topic of how life originated from an engineering background will see that DNA is a code that needs a designer to create the information it transmits. Peter Hearty is an atheist biologist. He says that science does not work when you dispense with the search for a naturalistic explanation for the origin of DNA.

Spencer vs. Stovold

- As the world marks Darwin's bicentenary, Nick Spencer of Christian thinktank Theos and author of the book "Darwin & God" explains where Darwin actually stood in relation to belief in God. Although Darwin lost his Christian faith he was never an atheist. Atheist biologist Robert Stovold argues that Darwin's "Big Idea" paves the way to atheism. Denis Alexander of the Faraday Institute also contributes arguing that belief in God and Evolution are complementary.

Williams vs. Konner

- "The Atheist's Bible" (Duckworth & Co) has been a bestseller in the USA. It brings together a mass of quotes from atheists, agnostics and more. Its compiler Joan Konner speaks to Justin Brierley about why she put it together and her own thoughts on atheism. She interacts with Christian apologist Peter Williams whose own book "The Sceptic's Guide to Atheism" (Paternoster) has just been published. Joan and Peter debate whether atheism has some fundamental faith assumptions of its own, as Peter argues that atheistic naturalism is a self- defeating notion. Joan argues that Christianity is arrogant in its exclusive claims.

Sherine, Stinson vs. Wooley

- Atheists are funding a campaign that will see London buses bearing the poster "There is probably no god. Now stop worrying and get on with your life". Its the brainchild of Ariane Sherine and has been backed by Richard Dawkins. We discuss the campaign, whether there really is no God and what it means for morality if there isn't.

Alexander vs. Loyd

- Denis Alexander is the author of "Creation or Evolution - do we have to choose?" - his answer is "no". Denis believes Darwin's theory is perfectly compatible with belief in the creator God of the Bible. Stephen Lloyd of Biblical Creation Ministries disagrees - he says that the Gospel itself depends on the Adam and Eve story being literally true.

Robertson vs. Hayter

- Church minister David Robertson authored a series of Open Letters to Richard Dawkins after the publication of "The God Delusion" that sought to expose the flaws in his argument and the "atheist myths" that he was guilty of. Those missives became a book called "The Dawkins Letters: Challenging atheist myths" and has propelled David into the spotlight as he addresses sceptical audiences on whether Christian belief makes sense.He debates with student Adrian Hayter also known as the "atheist blogger" online. Adrian disagrees with David's conclusions.

David Robertson is a Free Church Minister in Scotland and author of the best selling book "The Dawkins letters - Challenging atheist myths". He meets "atheist blogger" Adrian Hayter again to discuss the "myths" of Godless morality, the cruel Old Testament God and the Immoral Bible.

Rabbi Jonathan Romain vs Stephen Pacht

- Was Jesus the Messiah of the Jews? Christianity owes its birth to Judaism. But did Jesus represent the fulfilment of Jewish Messianic hopes and prophecy? Jonathan Romain is Rabbi of a Reform Synagogue in Maidenhead and was recently named as one of the most influential Jews in the UK. He believes that whatever Jesus was, he was not the Messiah promised in the Old Testament. Stephen Pacht is a Messianic Jew. He believes Jesus is the Messiah the Jews were promised, but has not been recognised yet by many fellow Jews. http://www.premierradio.org.uk/listen/ondemand.aspx?mediaid={D2960FCE-59B2-4DC2-A44D- 534E0ECFFB83}

David Robertson vs. Paul Orton

- Unbelieveable Radio debate. Atheist Paul Orton contacted the show saying he was unconvinced by the claim of some Christians that morality must be based in God, to make sense. He claims that morality is a product of biological and social evolution and "the changing moral Zeitgeist" determines the morals we hold. Christian apologist David Robertson claims that you can't make sense of "right" and "wrong" without reference to an ultimate standard - God. Anything else opens the door to moral nihilism. Slavery in the Bible, racism and much more enter the discussion as they discuss the practical outworking of our moral foundations. http://www.premierradio.org.uk/listen/ondemand.aspx?mediaid={EAACC407-988F-4B87-A8C4- 34760BC4B7A0}

Laura Miller vs. Michael Ward

- Unbelievable Radio debate. Laura Miller was captivated by Lewis' Narnia stories as a child. As a teenager she learnt of the Christian parallels in the books and felt "cheated and betrayed". Find out why in today's programme and how she has come to terms with Narnia by writing "The Magician's Book". Michael Ward is a leading expert on CS Lewis and author of "Planet Narnia". As a Christian the Narnia stories served to deepen his faith, and he has also recently uncovered a rich secret within the books that has gone unnoticed until now. http://www.premierradio.org.uk/listen/ondemand.aspx?mediaid={46D43E93-4CC7-4518-B482- A3E28DAC4A45}

Anthony McRoy vs. Abdul Haq

- Unbelieveable Raodio debate. What did the first Christians believe about Jesus? Muslim Abdul Haq, the author of "Before Nicea" claims that key doctrines of Christianity were formulated through later councils of the church. He says that there is no good evidence that early Christians believed in Jesus' divinity or even his crucifixion. Evangelical Christian scholar Anthony McRoy counters Haq's claims, insisting that the key doctrines of Christianity were well established in the early church and are implicit in Scripture. http://www.premierradio.org.uk/listen/ondemand.aspx?mediaid={B26D1F3C-652A-41C3-872E- 247999AA7877}

Richard Bauckham vs. James Crossley

- "Jesus and the Eyewitnesses" has been heralded as a paradigm shift in the way the authorship of the Gospels should be seen. Richard Bauckham is the author of the book, which won the 2009 Michael Ramsey prize. He argues that the Gospels are based on eyewitness accounts and should be regarded as fundamentally trustworthy. New Testament historian James Crossley discusses the implications of Bauckham's work and whether the Gospel of John was written by the disciple John himself, as Bauckham claims. http://www.premierradio.org.uk/listen/ondemand.aspx?mediaid={0AECB5BB-FCAE-432F-8224- 960C4AD52A5C}

Richard Bauckham vs. James Crossley

- Continuing on from their discussion last week, believing and non-believing New Testament historians Richard Bauckham and James Crossley discuss whether the testimony of eyewitnesses in the Gospels is trustworthy. Bauckham fills out his reasoning for the Gospels being credible eyewitness testimony of Jesus' life, while Crossley disputes whether testimony of the miraculous can be used as historical evidence. http://www.premierradio.org.uk/listen/ondemand.aspx?mediaid={97ADA01D-956B-419D- B2CD-1D382BCE8723}

Michael Shermer vs. Adrian Holloway

- You don't have to look far for claims of the miraculous. But what constitutes a "miracle" and do Christian beliefs in this area make sense? Michael Shermer is a well-known atheist in the USA and Director of the Skeptics Society. He says miraculous claims always have a natural explanation. Adrian Holloway is a London Pastor and apologist. He claims to have witnessed the miraculous and says that Michael's skepticism is unjustified. http://www.premierradio.org.uk/listen/ondemand.aspx?mediaid={8B4B875D-57DD-42B3- BC5F-29D9FDD4AA38}
