25:27Now PlayingThe authors of the New Testament experienced cognitive bias like anyone else, and sometimes that shows in the text. Dr. Bart Ehrman joins me to discuss how attribution bias, fundamental attribution error, and confirmation bias influenced the writings of the apostle Paul, the Pastoral epistles, the New Testament canon, and biblical interpretation.
