Did #JesusChrist actually exist?
Was #Jesus a Real #Historical Person?Or is he a #theological construct that emerged over time? In this in-depth video, we explore the controversial arguments of #RichardCarrier as presented in his 2025 book The Obsolete Paradigm of a #HistoricalJesus. This episode critically examines early #Christian texts, #nonChristian historical sources, and the use of #Bayesian probability to reassess one of #historyβs most debated questions.

π#RichardCarrier has just announced a new book: The Obsolete Paradigm of a Historical Jesus (2025).
As a scholarly sequel to On the #Historicity of #Jesus (2014), it argues the assumption of a historical Jesus is obsolete. Carrier applies #Bayes to case studies (Two Swords, Rom 1:3, Gal 4:4), re-evaluates #Docetism & revises Rank-Raglan odds (β25% historicity). Looking forward to reading it (will be available end of Nov 2025).

I've summarized some key points in this blog post:
