The Skeptics’ Bible Project is a podcast where we (John & Ben) share our fascination with studying the Bible outside of the lens of religion. Our project is to rescue the Bible from fundamentalists who insist it must only be read from a devotional perspective. We dig deeply to find the true history and teachings found inside. In each episode we try to present the Bible in a fresh perspective using the historical critical method. Always eager to engage in the exciting conversation with Skeptics, Atheists, and Christian’s alike.
Weekly topics include Bible contradictions, historical errors, non-orthodox teachings, down right strange passages, and everything that most Pastors won’t mention from the pulpit.
We are grateful to all those who are part of this dialogue.

In this week’s episode, Ben and John tackle the puzzles of Second Peter. First up, they ponder whether Peter himself could actually be the scribe behind his supposed second epistle. Spoiler: they’re not convinced—a fisherman with a penchant for literary flair?
And then there’s the whole issue of Peter’s apparent plagiarism of Jude. Did he run out of original ideas, or is this just celestial copy-pasting?
Plus, the duo dives into Peter’s casual name-dropping of Enoch. If Peter quotes him, does that make Enoch’s words scripture by association, or is this just ancient fan fiction?
Lastly, they dissect the notion that Second Peter might just be a smokescreen for a botched prophecy. Tune in for a dose of dubious authorship debates and questionable biblical claims.
