James F. McGrath FACT-CHECKS William Lane Craig & Sean McDowell – And It’s NOT Looking Good! Christian apologist Wesley Huff recently debated Billy Carson, an paleo-contact enthusiast, and somehow caught the attention of none other than Joe Rogan. That led to an interview where Huff made bold claims about Christianity’s historical foundations, which atheist Alex O’Connor @CosmicSkeptic quick to challenge. This set off a chain reaction, with Christian apologists rallying behind their new Heracles of the faith—Wes Huff—declaring him a champion in defense of the Gospel. Enter Sean McDowell (son of legendary apologist Josh McDowell) and William Lane Craig, stepping in with their usual arsenal of apologetic arguments. Their mission? To make the New Testament's resurrection claims so historically undeniable that anyone with a pulse must believe the early Christians really saw the resurrected Jesus. Meanwhile, these same apologists dismiss Mormonism’s eyewitness claims as fabrications and charlatanry—but somehow, the New Testament gets a free pass? Well, at MythVision, we don’t take apologetic claims at face value. In this series, we’re bringing in top critical Bible scholars to examine Craig and McDowell’s arguments piece by piece. And let’s just say... it’s NOT looking good for these defenders of the faith. Get ready for an eye-opening, educational, and unapologetically honest breakdown of apologetics versus real scholarship! Dr. James F. McGrath is no stranger to dissecting bold religious claims. As the Clarence L. Goodwin Chair in New Testament Language and Literature at Butler University, McGrath has spent years critically examining early Christianity, Mandaeism, and the New Testament's historical foundations. He’s also known for his strong critiques of the Christ myth theory and his deep dives into the intersection of religion and science fiction. Holding a Ph.D. from Durham University (1998), McGrath brings both scholarly rigor and sharp analytical skills to the table. Now, he turns his expertise toward William Lane Craig and Sean McDowell’s apologetic arguments. Do their claims about the resurrection and the reliability of the New Testament hold up under scrutiny? Or do they crumble when examined by a real scholar?
