  5. The Thinking Fellows discuss the idea that Christmas has pagan roots.
  6. David and Adam continue their conversation about Islam, venturing beyond the issues raised about in the Regensburg lecture (see season 2, episode 1).
  7. Hey Man, Nice Shot. In this episode, we discuss Rene Girard’s argument for why Jesus’ death as a scapegoat is unique to all other sacrifices in human history. What is violence for? What is a scapegoat, and why is one necessary for peace and good order? How does Jesus break the law machinery that demands a victim?
  8. In the cultural debate over God's existence, should the burden of proof rest on atheism rather than theism?
  9. Today on the show, we head to the mailbag to answer another Christmas question.
