I'm doing this less and less, in part because I've weaned myself from there more and more.
Nonetheless, stupidities still pop up and again, not just from the peanut gallery.
Take James McGrath (aka "ReligionProf") in this piece. Tell me how we know, outside the Christian gospel claims, that John the Baptizer styled himself as Elijah? Answer: We don't, and I hope you didn't claim that we do in your book about John.
In reality, as you should know, this is Christian appropriation of the Baptizer movement, or an attempt at it.
