On this week's BOB SIEGEL SHOW:
As a general rule, I treat atheists and other skeptics with respect. On the other hand, is there a place for what Christians sometimes call "tough love?" I believe there is, and in the gospels we see examples of Jesus using both. It all depended upon whom He was talking to. Notice the difference between the gentle, merciful way in which Jesus treated the woman caught in adultery and the extremely harsh comments aimed at the Pharisees. (Matt 23)
What kinds of occasions call for alternative approaches? This discussion (inspired by some atheist blog comments) is one of many themes explored.
ALSO...
Theology:
-Are there historical testimonies of Jesus outside the New Testament?
-Will Elijah return before the Second Coming of Christ?
-Was John the Baptist a reincarnation of Elijah?
Current Events:
-Does the constitution really give the Supreme Court the right to interpret the constitution?
-Does the constitution really teach "separation between church and state?"
Pop Culture:
Film critic, Mark Bubien joins us to recommend some of his favorite recent releases on Blue Ray, concentrating on films with Christian type messages.
Finally:
I received an E Mail asking me why I don't run for public office. Hear my response, as if it's keeping any of you up at nights:)
