Someone else took out a subscription after reading my review of William Lane Craig vs. Philip Goff, which was also free. I guess it’s the “Like the writing? Pay the writer” effect. Thanks very much!
Will you address the errors you find sometime? I've read some attempts at pointing port errors but they have been from some level of skeptic and didn't hold up to scrutiny.
What I'm critiquing is Craig's wooden comparative analysis of different incidents in the gospel, saying "This over here we can show historically, that over there we just sort of assume is true but we don't claim we can 'prove' it to skeptics." I'm saying that not only is this completely unnecessary, it will actually not even allow Craig to "keep" what he thinks he can save out as "historically provable," let alone getting "everything else along with it"! As I get into a bit in my first piece, the minimal facts argument simply doesn't work. You need to be able to draw on the epistemic resources of whole-gospel reliability. Again that's a technical point, not just a theological point.
Hidden in Plain View is an excellent book. I return to it often.
Thanks for making this series free! Funnily enough I decided to be a subscriber as a result. Not sure why I finally did, but I did.

What exactly is your position on inerrancy? You have mentioned you don't believe in it a few times, and I am curious what you do believe.
I don't think inerrancy is a theological given, and I also think there are some actual errors.
Thanks, its an interesting topic which I haven't fully made up my mind about. And the essay was great, too.
Thanks so much for reading!

I would really like a peak into your thoughts.!
Yes, I doubt that God divinely mandated the human execution of infants in several passages.
