But only from incompetence and amateurism, rather than dishonesty. Half the things he and his hosts, Chris Hansen and Bryan G., say are still incorrect (and I include them all together as O’Neill only rarely corrects their mistakes). Instead he is polite and reasonable throughout, and merely wrong a lot, in a totally ordinary way. In general, though, throughout this three hour video I found Tim O’Neill not to be the raging, lying, ad-hominem-spewing crank he usually is. Godless Engineer and I will do a future video on the other half of theirs, which addressed questions in the history of science, the subject of my Columbia University dissertation-which I later adapted into two books ( The Scientist in the Early Roman Empire and it’s more focused prequel Science Education in the Early Roman Empire). Here I address the roughly half of that BHS video that criticized challenges to the historicity of Jesus, on which I completed a fan-funded postdoc research project and published the first peer reviewed book in nearly a hundred years ( On the Historicity of Jesus), including an associated peer reviewed book on method ( Proving History) and a collection of related peer reviewed journal articles ( Hitler Homer Bible Christ).

Following is a companion article reiterating and expanding on what we discuss in that video. The latter video has now gone live and you can watch it here.

In April of this year the Biblical History Skeptics talked shop for three hours with Tim O’Neill ( this Tim O’Neill) and I was invited to talk shop about that with Godless Engineer last month.
