In March 2002, Shabir Ally and William Lane Craig held a truly remarkable series of four debates at four Canadian universities on four questions distinguishing Christianity and Islam.
The fourth and final debate was held at the University of Western Ontario on the subject, "Who is the real Jesus? The Jesus of the Qur'an or the Jesus of the Bible?" Dr. Craig argues on the basis of standard criteria of authenticity that the historical Jesus had a divine self-understanding, while Ally maintains that personal claims to divinity are inauthentic.
