Ten heretical views of Jesus, part one: Arianism, Docetism, Gnosticism

  • What are the ten heretical views regarding Jesus?

Ben reads the first three entries of a list of ten heretical views regarding Jesus. Arianism (Jesus created, not coeternal) draws a Jehovah's Witnesses comparison; Docetism (Jesus' body an illusion) prompts a 'hologram Jesus' riff; Gnosticism (secret knowledge, material world evil) leads Boova to ask whether Paul's flesh-vs-spirit language in Romans echoes it, and Ben answers that Paul sees the physical as corrupted but reclaimable rather than permanently vile.
