Cliffe Knechtle Debates Atheist Students: Is the Resurrection Historical?

Two atheist students step forward—one armed with pages of notes—to challenge Christianity at its weakest points. In this intense campus debate, Cliffe Knechtle responds to objections about the reliability of the Gospels, the historical gap between Jesus and the New Testament writings, and whether belief in the resurrection is intellectually justified. Rather than asking for blind faith, Cliffe walks through how historians evaluate ancient documents—using internal consistency, literary style, archaeology, and manuscript evidence. The discussion moves from eyewitness testimony and early church sources to deeper philosophical questions about morality, evil, and whether objective right and wrong truly exist. 0:00 – Intro The debate opens with objections to eyewitness testimony and historical claims. 0:59 – How Close Are the Gospels to the Events?
