Bas van Os is a theologian who has written on the New Testament and the historical Jesus, as well as the Gospel of Philip (for his PhD). He incorporates history, archaeology, and psychology into his theological work. Today we discuss the Virgin Birth, the historical facts and the mystical truth. This episode was made in response to the Peterson vs Dawkins debate, moderated by Alex o'Connor (@CosmicSkeptic).
