Stephen Colbert is a most fantastic interviewer – if you want the interviewee to feel particularly awkward. On Thursday he took on Bert Ehrman – who is pushing a new book about contradictions in the bible…
Colbert, a practicing Catholic, rips him apart. A bit. It’s interesting viewing.

Damn, poor guy, though if you spend your time writing a book about bible contradictions you really should be able to defend yourself against common criticisms of the argument. A pretty intimidating interview to go into.
‘God is not a fan of puns sir.’ Sounds like a message for you Nathan.
Yeah, interesting. Mainly interesting that such a discussion could take place on evening TV, and a discussion that, rudeness aside, had some really significant issues raised.
I am impressed that the interviewee sat through the entire interview despite being ripped to shreds!
