So What If They Believed It?

Just Jim and Monkeyboy sit down to take apart one of the oldest arguments in the resurrection debate: eyewitness testimony. The question isn’t whether first-century witnesses believed what they saw. The question is whether belief, on its own, counts for anything. We live in an era of HD cameras, digital forensics, and instant fact-checking, and people still get fooled daily. So what exactly are we supposed to make of testimony from people who had none of that? Sincerity isn’t a substitute for reliability, and conviction isn’t the same as evidence. If the best defense of the resurrection is “but they really believed it,” that defense has a problem.

Old Faithful

Some debate topics never seem to go away. “Black People Can’t Be Racist,” Old Faithful, is one of those conversations that keeps showing up across TikTok. It draws attention, brings people in, and gets repeated over and over again. In this discussion, Jeff from End of a Species and Super Solid use that topic as a starting point to look at something bigger: the current state of online debate. The real question is not just about the topic itself. It is about the quality of the conversation: * Do participants share the same understanding of reality? * Are people using consistent standards of logic and evidence? * Is anyone actually learning, or just repeating positions? This is a breakdown of why so many debates feel like they go nowhere, and what needs to change if better conversations are the goal.
