Christian "experts" HUMBLY educated by actual expert!

In this groundbreaking MythVision episode, Dr. Richard C. Miller exposes how Christian apologists like William Lane Craig and Sean McDowell completely ignore the Greco-Roman fingerprints all over the New Testament. They argue for the Gospels as eyewitness testimonies, yet fail to recognize how deeply these texts are shaped by Roman imperial ideology, mythic storytelling, and legendary motifs found across the ancient world. Miller places the Gospels in their proper historical context—not as neutral historical records, but as carefully crafted narratives shaped by the same myth-making traditions that glorified Roman emperors, demigods, and cult leaders. One of Miller’s most devastating critiques is how Christianity’s resurrection story follows the exact blueprint of Roman apotheosis myths—where emperors like Julius Caesar and Augustus were declared divine after death, with eyewitnesses conveniently claiming to have seen them ascend to the heavens. The Gospels, he argues, engage in this same fictive tradition, yet apologists refuse to acknowledge it. They also ignore how countless other cults fabricated eyewitness claims—from mystery religions to the Roman Imperial Cult itself, where divine status was granted by propaganda, not history. Miller also dismantles the so-called reliability of the Gospels, showing how translation fables and legendary embellishments shaped the resurrection narratives. Mark, the earliest Gospel, lacks a detailed resurrection appearance, but later accounts in Matthew, Luke, and John expand the story dramatically, just as myths evolve over time. This is not the work of historical reporting, but deliberate literary construction. Grab Dr. Richard C.
