In your full review, please be objective and not allow your predisposition to your personal Christian agenda to get in the way. I find so often that so-called "experts" on just about any subject, except those based on quantifiable evidence, fool themselves and their readers by being unwilling or unable to objectively assess arguments opposing their ingrained beliefs. Although I hold out the possibility that you will be open minded in your review, my predisposition is to the high probability that you will spout forth the traditional Christian line without offering valid counter-arguments. I come to this view by your petty personal invectives,( "It actually is more of the same from him" -- So you knew that in advance, did you? How insightful of you.); ("devotional reading versus historical reading" - Ehrman makes a good point; you do not.); ("former evangelical gone agnostic" - so, what's your point? Is this a bad thing?); ("since the claims are circulating widely in books and on TV through many shows on cable niche channels" -- but not in mainstream Christian churches - especially evangelical, fundamentalist churches - but, they are not mainstream.) So, after second consideration, I won't waste my time looking for your review with Ehrman's book; I already know what it will say. Stephan's reply is ridiculous.
