0:00 Introduction
01:22 What do you mean by resurrection?
03:58 What is Prof. Eric T. Olson’s dilemma for this view (the doctrine of the general resurrection)?
07:27 First horn of Olson’s dilemma – problem of preservation
07:52 Second horn of Olson’s dilemma – problem of radical resurrection
08:47 What is resurrection by reassembly, and which horn of the dilemma faces it?
12:50 What are some of the most common objections to resurrection by reassembly?
13:19 Double resurrection problem
14:44 Cannibal problem – classic objection to the reassembly model
15:44 Gap problem – second horn of Olsen’s dilemma
20:40 How can the reassembly theorist respond to the double resurrection problem?
30:52 How can the reassembly theorist respond to the cannibal problem?
36:26 How can the reassembly theorist respond to the gap problem?
44:26 What advantages to the resurrection by reassembly model have over the other models?
50:06 Question #1 – Thoughts about this argument? There’s a sorties series from no change between pre and post disassembly watch (same parts and arrangement) to lots of change between pre and post resurrection person (different parts and arrangement). Suppose there’s no sharp cut-off or vagueness in the sorites series. Since watches can survive dis/reassembly, it follows that persons can be resurrected.
55:03 Question #2 – Does your model assume that a particle’s history can be tracked? That it is possible to give to a particle a name X and track the entire history of where X was?
Scripture teaches that there will be a general resurrection of the dead. In this interview, Dr. Justin Mooney joins me to discuss he updated version of the resurrection by reassembly model. To explore this model in more depth, check out his paper linked below.
