Re: Mormonism Live - The Two Seconds Watsons letter theory

I have a hard time believing it takes research to read the next paragraph and let the author finish the point he is making. But then, this is DP we're talking about. Comments about DP here are so kneejerk and lockstep that I periodically get a perverse urge to see if there could be different angles...

Faithful historians and their bias

L the A: ""By 1844, Harris was affiliated with the Shakers in Kirtland. It was rumored that Harris was “a firm believer in Shakerism,” so much so that “his testimony is greater [in Shakerism] than it was of the Book of Mormon.”" Affiliated is a pretty loose word, L the A. And It was rumored isn't e...

Re: The substantial cost of theistic morality

But none of that tells us whether, if religion vanished right now, whether we'd have more or fewer people starting gunfights. I think atheists are more likely to avoid a dangerous situation. "Only about 8,000 out of 1.4 million active duty members in the Army, Navy, Marine Corps and Air Force ident...

Re: "The Book of Mormon surpasses all known pseudo-archaic writings in breadth and depth of archaism"

I love the cargo cult analogy. It applies to Interpreter as a whole. Interpreter is a cargo cult's version of a scholarly journal. They have imitations of all the real processes, like peer review, but they're as effective as the coconut radar dish. They're for show. The quality of the journal, for e...
