“Docetism Was INVENTED”—Carrier Nukes a Century of Scholarship

Did “docetism” actually exist—or did modern scholars invent a label to patch holes in early Christian history? Derek Lambert sits down with Dr. Richard Carrier (previewing his new book The Obsolete Paradigm of the Historical Jesus) to re-read Ignatius, 2 Peter, 1 John, and Paul without the old categories.

We tackle:

Why many scholars now reject “gnosticism” and “docetism” as real ancient sects

How Ignatius and 2 Peter look like pushback against allegorical / mythic Christians

Why “we SAW him / we TOUCHED him” sounds like a counter to non-historical readings

Paul’s “till he comes” & meeting the Lord in the air—what coming meant

The early battle: revelationists (mythicists?) vs traditionalists (historicists)
