Who are you referring to as "apostates?" Do you really think we're not aware of the passages you cited? Seriously? I, for one, had them in mind when reading the post.

And no one's claiming Robinson is modifying the 8th AoF (that is, unless you think he's trying to sneak his own version into a new edition of the scriptures or something?)

And no one's claiming it's a "new concept."

Maybe you need a vacation, Tex?

At least you could tone down the contempt, the knee-jerk condemnation, and the wild attributions. We're having a nice thread here. Need I remind you that this is in the religious studies forum?
