"The Case Against Christian Film" Episode #96 with Dr Robert M Price
In this episode we talk with Dr. Robert M. Price about "The Case For Christ"(a book by Lee Strobel,which is now a film) and his response book "The Case Against The Case For Christ."
Robert M. Price is Professor of Biblical Criticism at the Center for Inquiry Institute as well as the editor of The Journal of Higher Criticism. His books include Beyond Born Again, The Widow Traditions in Luke-Acts: A Feminist-Critical Scrutiny, Deconstructing Jesus, and The Incredible Shrinking Son of Man. Forthcoming titles are The Crisis of Biblical Authority, Jesus Christ Superstar: A Redactional Study of a Modern Gospel, The Da Vinci Controversy and The Amazing Colossal Apostle.
I have watched Dr. Price on You Tube often. As for Strobel and his book, I started to watch the movie version of it. Didn't get far and could not bring myself to finish it. Why? Early on it hit me that Lee Strobel had a wife and family and he made a decision that would allow him to keep them. He loved them and wanted to keep them all together. That's really all I got out of it. Sorry. I did not see a "case for Christ." Strobel made the choice that he had to make.
Follow on comment - I went and looked at this link. It didn't disappoint. Dr Price is a fount of great background information on the history of the world, and expresses his thoughts very well.
Thanks for the link.

By co-incidence, I had just finished watching an AronRa interview with this guy, and I was really impressed with his grasp on history and his well thought out reasoning.
I will follow up those other links.
