    I'm so glad DBH seems to be doing well post-surgery. Or at least is sat upright and is also able to speak as beautifully as we would expect.

    As a Muslim, DBH is probably my favorite modern Christian thinker. Not only is he philosophically well read, not only is he updated on the critical literature on the bible, but hes able to deliver all his points in such great prose and rhetoric.

      Hes also super well read on Islamic philosophy and Mysticism which i appreciate. Hes frequently cites figures I love like Ibn Sina, Mulla Sadra, and Ibn Arabi.
      He is a great reviver of how our medieval thinkers and traditions understood God, rather than the sad parody of God that most believers hold on today, causing the rise of movements like Atheism.
      Not only is a great source for philosophy. But also when i find some problem I see in the new testament, I always check with DBH’s translation of the NT. He is a faithful Christian with a nuanced and complex theology, aware of the critical scholarship. His insights are always useful when Im forming my own perspective on such problems.

      He’s not really updated on the critical literature. He’s stuck in the late 90s-early 00s, which is better than most Christians, but it is a weak spot of his in my view.

      Are you 1 of those 'good' Muslims? Lol why does every Muslim apologist on UA-cam hate Israel where obviously imam Tawhidi & Khalil Andani don't count? How do you defend Mohammed's marriages to Aisha Safiyya Rayhana and beheading 600-900 Jews at Banu Qurayza including 10yo Jewish children and women?

    I really like ‘cosmos’ and feel the wider implications… much better than ‘world’ or ‘universe’

    It's fitting that the New Testament isn't a literary masterpiece, it's a point of departure for a relationship with the glorified Lord. It's only a prelude.

    DBH has provided us with a helpful NT translation.

    Yes! It does invert the protestant critique of papal infallibly, or the infalubility of tradition. We protestants have created our own dogma and we don't let the bible get in the way of our dogma.

    Wait, so, he thinks the resurrection of the dead is "silly" but is also a Christian?

    • @bman5257
      @bman5257 2 дні тому +2

      Where does he say the resurrection of the dead is silly?

    • @bman5257
      @bman5257 2 дні тому +2

      If you’re referring to 23:45 I’m afraid you were not listening well enough, he was critiquing Thomist eschatology on the will and desire not the resurrection.

    I wonder where the apocalypse of Peter came from? It is a very early text and has a vision of hell and torment.

      He is an Orthodox Christian. Dr. Hart's written work is incredibly influenced by the Church Fathers and the Neoplatonic strand of Christian thought more generally.
