Nice try, Eric

Who mentions my work on the AFR on Pharyngula (see comment 51) and gets one response back referring to Carrier's critique. Perhaps a casual reader of Internet Infidels might not know about my own published counter-critique in Baggett and Walls ed. C. S. Lewis as a Philosopher (IVP, 2008), (and in a couple of other places as well) but surely must have seen Darek Barefoot's response on Infidels?

VR: "... Internet Infidels ..."

Ir, as I call it: Invincible Ignorance (disregarding that 'invincible ignorance' is a technical term which means something quite different than I mean).

If you are in invincible ignorance, it's not your fault.

I was deeply saddened reading down the comments.

I was downright disgusted both with Mr. Myers and when reading down the comments. And, not to be maudlin, but I was also deeply concerned for the future of our society. This is what they're teaching in our universities these days? This militant hatred, vulgarity, intolerance, and vitriol?

I've had "esessess" a couple of times recently.

Thank God this is not a sycophantic echo chamber here.

Is this free thought?

Ilíon said...

Truly deep thought doesn't need to echo.

Mega dittos, Ilion.

Ilíon said...

Well, a little reverberation now and again surely isn't amiss. ;-)

Dangerous Idea is one of the best blogs that I've ever read.
