Professor Bart D. Ehrman - North Carolina Public Radio WUNC

Bart D. Bhrman, Phd James A. Gray Distinguished Professor, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. God's Problem: How the Bible Failes to Answer Our Most Important Question - Why We Suffer.

Publishers Weekly ~
Ehrman enters the ongoing discussion of biblical literalism and reliability, insisting that we're not arriving at satisfactory answers because we're not asking the right questions. Drawing widely from history, scripture and extra-biblical writings, he studies the many stories of the lives of the first-century "Peter, Paul and Mary," arguing that inclusion of some accounts in the canon should not elevate these texts above the others, some of which were accepted early on by the church but later excluded from the canon. As with his other works, Ehrman presents his case clearly and succinctly.
