Godless Engineer | Are THESE The Sources For The Gospels??? #christianbelief #atheism #atheist @godlessengineer | Uploaded April 2024 | Updated October 2024, 5 hours ago.
In today's video, we delve into the critical analysis of the sources often cited in discussions about the historical Jesus. We're mainly focusing on using "hypothetical sources" like the Q source and others that scholars propose without solid evidence of their existence. The reliance on such sources is questionable and undermines the integrity of claims about independent attestations of Jesus's life.
I'll explain why the argument that the Gospels are independent eyewitness accounts does not hold up under scrutiny. Scholars like Dr. William Lane Craig often present these texts as separate confirmations of Jesus's actions and words. Still, a closer look reveals a lack of historical verification and an overreliance on tradition rather than tangible proof.
Join me as we unpack these claims, dissect the methodology used in historical Jesus research, and highlight the issues with citing non-existent sources as evidence. This video is for anyone intrigued by the intersections of history, theology, and critical thinking.
