For nearly two thousand years, we've been told that Christianity began around 30 AD - when the disciples of the backwoods preacher "Jesus of Nazareth" came to believe he had risen from the dead. But now, BORN IN THE SECOND CENTURY exposes this tale as a myth. Host Chris Palmero - an adherent of the Catholic Church - proves that Christianity began almost one hundred years after the imagined death of Jesus, through a close reading of the New Testament and books left out of the Bible.

33. John's Gospel Spurious and Derivative, Part One. Deceptively Primitive.
BORN IN THE SECOND CENTURY begins a multi-part exploration on whether the author of John's Gospel was aware of the Gospels of Mark, Matthew, and Luke. In presenting evidence that the Gospel of John does not draw from independent oral tradition, but from the prior Gospels, host Christ Palmero will establish that John is not a reliable witness for Jesus' ministry.

Bro…
You are a beast. I am only one episode into the Barnabas series and I am thoroughly entertained. Fantastic work here.
Challenging and Informative
Very educational. Learning much about the myth of Christianity.
An in depth analysis of Christianity even a layperson can appreciate
Born catholic and raised rather loosely in the faith, my understanding of Christianity is primitive- Jesus was born, died on the cross, rose from the dead, yada, yada, yada. Chris’s easy conversational style draws me in to a compelling history of Christianity is never had interest in before, like the World Religions class you never took in college but could have really appreciated. I look forward to other series from this author.
