Website by one Greg Kane that follows the "Jesus was stolen from pagan gods" school. We tear it up in great detail on my new parody website, tektoonics.com. Summary points here.
Pagels, Elaine
Promulgates a politically-correct vision of early Christianity.
Wiccan fellow of ex-Christian persuasion. Likes satire. So do we. Answers to 142 Questions for Christians may be found on my other site, tektoonics.com.
Pentateuch
For material on individual books, check the Scripture Indexes by book name.
Apostasy and Anxiety -- a negative finding for the doctrine of eternal security (perseverance)
Philistines
These perennial bad boys are more than just Goliath's stooges! Also called the Caphtorim or Cherethites, and almost universally regarded as having been from Crete, these guys were one of several "Sea Peoples" of the Aegean who made life tough in the Levant.
According to certain people, the actual authors of the NT. Right.
Plato
You can make it with this guy. Some comments on Hellenistic thinking and Phaedo here.
Plotz, David
Deputy director of the online magazine Slate. Plotz started a series called "Blogging the Bible" in which he reads the Bible straight through and offers reader-response comments. His reactions are no less than what we would expect from someone without any knowledge of the defining social, lingustuic, historical, etc. backgrounds of the text. To his credit he admits he is not an expert, but it remains that this is a thoroughly irresponsible presentation of the sort we'd expect in a post-modern world where everyone thinks their "opinion" is worth depth consideration. Plotz's isn't. He has offered little or nothing we have not already covered in the past here, so we deem him worthy of no more than this note.
Yes, it's the Secular Web's own Mr. Friendly himself! You don't want to meet Mr. Price in a dark alley -- he'll call you names and give you a free psychoanalysis session telling you how miserable you are!
