Capturing Christianity

This discussion features two Christian guests on the question of the doctrine and nature of hell. Does the Bible teach that hell is eternal separation from God, as is traditionally believed, or is hell something else altogether? Chris Date, an annihilationist, runs a website called Rethinking Hell where he defends a "conditional immortality" perspective. Jason Crowder is a traditionalist, he believes that hell is eternal. We are discussing a positive case for Chris' view. He argues firstly that the Bible teaches we are not inherently immortal, immortality is a gift from God. And then secondly that the doctrine of the atonement (Christ's atoning work on the cross) makes better sense from an annihilationist point of view.

This Theist/Atheist Discussion features a number of guests, most notably Tyler McNabb and Stephen Law (who recently had an exchange on Unbelievable? on the subject of Reformed Epistemology). The other guests joining are: Cameron Bertuzzi (myself), Josh Parikh, Perry Hendricks, Brett Lunn, Ben Watkins, Ben Bavar. The topic of discussion is Alvin Plantinga's (in)famous Evolutionary Argument Against Naturalism. The argument roughly states that the probability our cognitive faculties are reliable given Naturalism & Evolution is low. Hence, the person that believes N&E has a defeater for all of their beliefs, including belief in N&E. Belief in N&E is therefore self-referentially incoherent and cannot rationally be accepted.
