Derbyshire is not very bright. He also refuses to be drawn into anything resembling a conversation. I mean, he responds, but he doesn't respond to anything you say to him. He just gives the most shallow atheist boilerplate one can imagine. Over and over.<BR/><BR/>The woman over there, Heather MacDonald, with all her academic resume (Yale, Cambridge, Stanford) is also a bit of a brick. Though in her case she uses the delete function in the place of boilerplate responses. <BR/><BR/>They seem to be of the extremely scared atheist variety.The Puritanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12200009028083050918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-20417808246565657952008-12-04T14:18:00.000-05:002008-12-04T14:18:00.000-05:00"... so that the Magisterium becomes exactly as se...<I>"... so that the Magisterium becomes exactly as self-authenticating as we claim the Scriptures are."</I><BR/><BR/>That's exactly it.

There’s not much cussing among the Triabloggers. But we allow for a certain amount of cussing (at our own discretion) among commenters since they expose their own character in the process. <BR/><BR/>It’s also possible for Christians to be a little too Victorian about these things.stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16547070544928321788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-18796050057054493122008-12-04T12:00:00.000-05:002008-12-04T12:00:00.000-05:00Are you kidding me, Vytautas?

Here are the contributors:<BR/><BR/>http://secularright.org/wordpress/?page_id=149<BR/><BR/>They do engage commentators, but they havn't encountered any of you types thus far, I don't suspect. Some of the commentators come close, but it is mostly a site swarming with arrogant atheists of the Dawkins level variety. <BR/><BR/>I can tell Derbyshire would be a bit shell-shocked if he engaged a Hays and company over there.
