Well what do I know, I'm just the video guy, here's the Webster full definition of MYTHICIST. 1 : a student or interpreter of myths. 2 : an adherent of the view that apparently supernatural persons or events have their origin in human imagination especially as revealed in myth.

NC Bookwatch: Lost Christianities

Bart D. Ehrman was guest on North Carolina Bookwatch hosted by D.G. Martin. The program that was aired on WHYY 08/29/2004, to discuss his book that had been recently released at that time called, "Lost Christianities: The Battles for Scripture and the Faiths We Never Knew" [Episode: 239]. In Lost Christianities and the program, Bart D. Ehrman offers a fascinating look at these early forms of Christianity and shows how they came to be suppressed, reformed, or forgotten. All of these groups insisted that they upheld the teachings of Jesus and his apostles, and they all possessed writings that bore out their claims, books reputedly produced by Jesus's own followers.

D. G. Martin is the host of UNC-TV’s “North Carolina Bookwatch,” who served in the U.S. Army’s Special Forces, a retired lawyer, politician, and university administrator.



Program discussed on Bart Ehrman's Foundation Blog: http://ehrmanblog.org/?p=8837

Bart D. Ehrman is the James A. Gray Distinguished Professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He came to UNC in 1988, after four years of teaching at Rutgers University. At UNC he has served as both the Director of Graduate Studies and the Chair of the Department of Religious Studies. A graduate of Wheaton College (Illinois), Professor Ehrman received both his Masters of Divinity and Ph.D. from Princeton Theological Seminary, where his 1985 doctoral dissertation was awarded magna cum laude.

Science and intellect are your gods!

From time to time atheists are told that they've turned science, intellect and similar things into their "god" or their "religion". This non-argument is a mix of insult (though it may insult their god and religion more), tu quoque fallacy and... just a touch of truth, but a truth that betrays a larger problem with their view.



This may be one of the biggest and most damning deepities we've heard.

Religious Website On What To Do When Your Wife Denies You Sex

A website that has a writer called “ biblical gender roles” has chimed in on whether a woman can resist her husband wanting sex. He said that she can not because her body is her property. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian (The Point) hosts of The Young Turks discuss.

"A website that gives sex advice to married Christians argues that women can never give their spouses “a flat no” when asked for sex because “her body does belong to her husband.”



The anonymous founder of the Biblical Gender Roles website, who says he is a white male in his 40s, came under fire earlier this month after he wrote an article titled, “Is a husband selfish for having sex with his wife when she is not the mood?”

“Feminists and even some women who would not consider themselves feminists believe it is selfish for a man to have sex with his wife, knowing she is not in the mood,” the writer explains. “In fact some claim if a man has sex with his wife when she is not the mood this is rape… Here we will try to answer this very important question, from a Biblical perspective.”
