Heresy: Jesus Christ and the Other Sons of God, with Catherine Nixey
Manage episode 453607530 series 3291351
Why do scholars now refer to early Christianities instead of early Christianity? How has the meaning of the word “Heresy” changed from its original definition to taking on its current connotations? Why did Christianity grow from a fringe cult with few followers and disdained by the intelligentsia and people in power to becoming the largest religion in the world today? What did humanity lose with Christianity’s rise?
Catherine Nixey answers all these questions and more as she discusses her new book, Heresy, on Podcast for Inquiry.
