It's a bit late, but, here goes.
We're going to start with the top two, then drumroll from 10-3, for a specific reason.
No. 1 is from Oct. 31, 2019, my "Gun Nuts in the name of Luther" piece about Armed Lutheran Radio.
No. 2 is from June of 2023, my take on the "Lutefash" troubles in the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod. I posted the first to an ex-Lutheran sub-Reddit, and dropped the second in comments to another post, both in late September, or maybe early October, just after the transition to a new quarter.
And, both are election-related, too.
Now, 10-3.
No. 10? From February, dropped on r/secularism about two months ago, my piece about how secularists take the climate crisis more seriously than either fundagelicals or "liberals" not just of Christianity, but any world religious tradition.
No. 9 is definitely from October, a new, brief piece about the latest dumbery at r/AcademicBiblical.
At 8, an oldie but a goodie from 2007, more proofs that the Buddha was not the Buddha.
No. 7, early November, a highly critical review of Steven Mithen's "The Language Puzzle."
No. 6? Based on a chance encounter at Redwood National and State Parks, my thoughts, with photos, on that old Latin phrase about aesthetics: "De gustibus non disputandum" in natural beauty.
No. 5? I dropped the link to this piece from a year ago into a biblical criticism blogging circle. It's my thought, riffing on Paul Davidson, about how Josiah probably wasn't Josiah, tied with how Moses Wilhelm Shapira probably DID find a proto-Deuteronomy.
No. 4? Also put on a biblical criticism blog circle, my 2009 piece on Paul, Passover, Jesus, Gnosticism.
And at No. 3, from September, my critical review of a book allegedly about refugee musicians and select other artists.
