Title: Not a proper cross-examination
Review: I picked up Case for Christ, because it was recommended to me by a friend, and being very skeptical about friend's recommendations, it took me a while to get to that book. But when I did I was blown away. It wasn't just any author trying to persuade you that Jesus Christ really is who he said he is, rather Strobel establishes his case premise by premise, and builds upon a strong foundation. Most importantly, he decides to talk to knowledgeable people when confronted by topics he doesn't know anything about.Doherty, on the other hand, isntead of interviewing those scholars that Strobel did, takes quotes from the book, and twists them around to fit his argument. In order to do a proper cross-examination, you need to have the witness, not just the witness' statement. Doherty fails to do that, and he failed to win my respect, rather, he lost what little of it I had for him because of his lack of scholarly debate.
