So, for anybody out there that didn’t watch this, let me give you a brief synopsis.
The special wasn’t disappointing. It was what you would expect: a lot of fluff and jumping around without getting to the heart of the matter. As a whole, ABC was fair, and you even got the feeling that the reporter, Elizabeth Vargas, believed in the literal ressurection of Christ. We got the usual Jesus Seminar people on there. Spong and Father McBrien were them usual selves. Father McBrien makes you just want to scream “Heretic, get out of my Church”. They spewed their regular garbage about how after the resurrection, whenever people saw Jesus it was a vision and nothing more. As proof for this view they stated that Jesus “appeared” to people and this word usage proves this. :tsktsk: I would like to meet these people and have my foot appear to their a**. Then we will see if they think it is literal or just a vision. (of course I would wait for Fr McBrien to be excused from the priesthood before my foot would appear to him.)
I felt that Father O’Conner was the best on there. :yup: I have seen him before. He is an expert on the archeology that goes on in the Holy Land and is quite the expert. :clapping: He was very orthodox and was the most knowledgeable of all the pro-ressurection people on the show.
