  7. The Case for John the Baptist Being a Vegetarian -- Spiritual Awakening Radio Podcast: youtu.be/rBM34Cm4laE?si=94IxWR

    Note: I will be doing a follow-up part 2 on this topic at some point, as more early Christian apocrypha have been published as well as I've located more writings from the Aramaic-Syriac tradition affirming the vegetarianism of John's Nasoraean sect.

    #Christian apologist #JoshMcDowell irresponsibly overstates what the Dead Sea Scrolls can tell us about #OldTestament reliability. Dr John Bergsma insists that #JohntheBaptist and several of #Jesus' disciples were part of the #DeadSeaScroll group. Meanwhile, Dr Craig Evans insists that any notion of Jesus parallels are rejected by #scholars and outside the mainstream.
