Summary: Jesus under Fire?
Comment: A few sparks, but no fire. The problem with this debate was that the speakers were not really fighting for every argument. Craig offered several reasons why Jesus is the son of God because of his ressurection. Crossan didn't answer any of those. Craig was right in asserting that the problem with Crossan is that he is neglecting the historical evidence while presenting his case from a naturalistic viewpoint. You need better arguments than that. The most serious problem was I think that in comparison with other debates of Craig against atheists, that both speakers call them selves christians. This was confusing me. In the end I follow Craig's argument, that if jesus didn't rise from the dead, we have no better rational reason to believe in his divinity than to believe in Peter Pan. Cornelis van Putten.

Summary: Excellent debate
Comment: Waaooh, this is a must. Unfortunately the debate is not yet in print, one has to be content with Moreland's "Jesus under Fire", for example.

Summary: A Wonderful Debate on the Resurrection
Comment: Dr. John Dominic Crossan is the co-chairman of the media darlings known as the Jesus Seminar. Dr. William Craig is (in my opinion) the best Christian apologist of the late 20th century who has specialized his theological research on the historicity of the resurrection of Jesus in 3 major academic books. The give and take of this debate much favored Craig in which he clearly won. Craig argued two major contentions: 1. Jesus rose from the dead and confirmed his claims to act in the place of God. 2. If Jesus didn't rise from the dead, then belief in him is a fairytale and equivalent to an irrational faith of Peter-Pan theology. Crossan never seems to address point 2 at all in the debate. In fact, Crossan thinks that one should just go on believing in Christ even though , according to Crossan, Jesus never rose from the dead bodily and was probably eaten by dogs. One wonders who is the one with the irrational faith? Listeners will enjoy the 40 minute dialogue section in which William F. Buckley participates in.
