"He knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust." - Psalms 103:14 (KJV)

"'But how are the dead raised? With what kind of body do they come?' (1 Corinthians 15:35, RSV) A good question." - Bob Price

Join us in episode 4 of the RDP, featuring George Hrab! We all know it, but we might be afraid to admit it; we're all gonna die! Even the religious folks hopeful on eternal life better take a second look at their own scripture. Many places in the bible describes humans as nothing more than sons of dust, destined to die and return to the earth. So how do we deal with that scary truth? Does our life still have beauty and meaning? We think so! Check it out, and please leave a comment!

Points to Ponder: Maybe I really am a mortal.

Quote to Remember:

As for the days of our lives, they contain seventy years,
Or if due to strength, eighty years,
Yet their pride is but labor and sorrow;
For soon it is gone and we fly away.
Who understands the power of your anger
And your fury, according to the fear that is due you?
So teach us to number our days,
That we may present to you a heart of wisdom.
Psalms 90:10-12 (NASB)

Question to Consider: Would I bother with Christianity if I knew there was no life after death?

Hey guys, great show so far. I just wanted to suggest that you guys turn the background music down a little bit during the intro and during Price's portion of the show. I have to struggle to hear you guys over it. During Price's section, the volume was fine for the most part, but there were a few loud bits of the song that were distracting and drowned him about a bit.

Other than that, I have to say this is my favorite podcast aside from the SGU. It makes my work day go by super fast. =)

thanks for listening! I agree with you about the background music level, consider it fixed! I'm glad you like the show.

Great podcast -- haven't listened to this episode yet but wondering if you have the link to the video you mentioned in other episodes of Hrab mocking the anti-evolution banana video?

Thanks!

PS. Ravi Zacharias -- I listened to your recovery episode before the interview -- I don't think you did badly at all -- he just has ninja-like red herring abilities that I'm in absolute shock and awe about.
