I wondered about posting this, but I am not fond of attacks on my character, and rarely will I let them go unchallenged. Hence responding to some comments made here.
BG and MM like to have personal conversations. One of the topics they like to discuss is us. We won’t hide the fact that their comments are hurtful, sadistic, and mean but life is as it is and not everyone treats those they do not like, how they want to be treated.
Over the years the author of Theology Archaeology has engaged in numerous acts of dishonesty, including some directed against me personally. He has rarely even attempted to justify his claims that I am a ‘liar and distorter’, he has deleted or edited comments that contained factual links proving some of his arguments to be false, and in more recent times he has taken to being increasingly rude. Should he truly believe in treating others how he wants to be treated, he may come to see that repeated accusations of lying and distorting wear very thin after a while, especially when those accusations lack credence or evidence. Because I do treat people as they treat me, so constant accusations of dishonesty on my part by the author will be met with demonstrations of his own dishonesty.
Then there are the insults. I am no more rude to him than he is to me, because once again, I treat people as they treat me. He should consider that, and reflect upon whether or not he is trying to meet the standards Jesus set for him.

Boy, that’s a rich, steaming pile of bulls***. He just can’t bring himself to be prideful by saying I or me. Either that, or he has MPD.
I have every nasty, vile email and comment he has sent me. I never initiated any interaction with him — ever. Much like you, I don’t like it when people attack my character. I rarely let such treatment pass. Maybe I’m flawed in that regard. All I know is this: if you want kind, thoughtful, decent treatment behave accordingly. If not, don’t be surprised when I “gut” you with words.
David seems to not understand that I have no problem when someone objects to something I’ve written. Tis the nature of the game. His problem is that he makes it personal, even going after my wife. By all means, challenge and critique my beliefs. However, personal attacks are not appreciated and are most certainly not Christian. In my fifty years as a Christian and twenty-five years as a pastor, I never spoke to a person as David does to us. I have a hard time squaring his behavior with what he professes.
You’re exactly right – David has no problems with attacking others and fails to appreciate how unChrist-like such behaviour is. When he accused the good, kind people of the Church I attended for my wedding of not really being Christians, I could not help but think that they are closer to all the verses about kindness than he will never be. A part of me would be inclined to share some of what he’s emailed you, to demonstrate once and for all that David does not practice what he preaches, despite all his claims of piety. I guess that depends on what he’s said, and that’s up to you to judge.
You need help. You like being seen as a victim and lie about what others say. You are not the benchmark on how things should be done or said. BG is a class A narcissist and you seem to be a professional victim.
Your hypocrisy is once again noted. You enjoy making personal attacks (such as this one), and it seems to be a persistent theme in your posts and comments across various forums throughout the years. When you can actually address the facts around the various topics we’ve discussed, instead of baseless and unsubstantiated accusations and lies, I’ll treat you like an adult.
