Coming from an eastern theology perspective many Christina atonement theories seem problematic such as the idea that Jesus paid for our sins on the cross. In this discussion I will ask a christian scholar to offer defences of some atonment theories while I offer eastern insitpired objections and present an alternative view on salvation.
Joshua R. Farris is the Professor of Theology of Science at a new global school called Missional University. He is a consultant/curriculum developer for Raising Families, ordained in the Evangelical Episcopal Church. Dr. Farris has edited, authored, co-authored books and journals on a variety of subjects in analytic theology, philosophy of religion, systematic theology, the atonement, beatific vision, theistic personalism, and the soul-body relationship. He has recently completed a new work for a mainstream intellectual audience, entitled: The Created Self: A Defense of the Soul to be published later this year with John Hunt, Iff publishers. He is also finishing a co-edited work with Joanna Leidenhag on the origin of the soul and recent his co-edited volume on idealism and immaterialism with Benedikt Paul Gocke was published with Routledge press. He plans to continue researching and writing on sexuality, the soul in science discourse, formation, the atonement, and other relevant anthropology issues. He was previously the Assistant Professor of Theology at Houston Baptist University, the first Anglican (second Protestant) to occupy the Chester and Margaret Paluch Professor of Theology at Mundelein Seminary, University of Saint Mary of the Lake.

![@MuslimSkeptic Defending Pirates, Slavery, and Apostasy and Blasphemy Laws
Dive into some of the most controversial moments from Daniel Haqiqatjous debate with Arjuna (Theology Unleashed) on the topic Islam vs. Hinduism: Which is More Violent? This compilation features clips where Daniel discusses and defends his views on:
Conquest & The Use of Force: His assertion that Islam (and other major systems) endorses conquest.
Slavery: His argument against slavery being inherently immoral and its historical prevalence.
Barbary Pirates: His refusal to condemn their actions, framing them in the context of broader historical conflicts and power dynamics.
Apostasy & Blasphemy Laws: His stance on upholding religious texts that include harsh punishments.
Historical Violence & Genocide: His perspective on these as tools in the establishment of empires and a critique of Western hypocrisy.
(Optional: Add a few specific timestamps from your clips here, e.g., See his defense of slavery at [timestamp] and piracy at [timestamp].)
A Look at Daniel Haqiqatjous Debate Style in This Exchange:
Unflinching & Direct: Daniel doesnt shy away from controversial topics, directly stating and defending his interpretations of history and religious doctrine.
Aggressively Confrontational: He often employs a forceful style, directly challenging his opponents arguments, worldview, and interpretations (e.g., critiques of neo-Hinduism or liberal perspectives).
Historical Realpolitik Framing: Many of his justifications are rooted in a pragmatic, if stark, view of historical power struggles, resource scarcity, and the eat or be eaten nature of statecraft.
Emphasis on Textual & Historical Consistency (as he sees it): He champions an acceptance of religious texts and historical actions in their entirety (for Islam), criticizing what he views as selective or modernized interpretations by others.
Provocative & Counter-Moralistic: His arguments frequently run counter to modern liberal morality and appear designed to shock, challenge assumptions, and provoke strong reactions.
