"Given where these pretenders were educated it's clear they received a heavy dose of Greece being the unbroken line from antiquity through ancient Rome and to modernity, and ultimately what REDEEMED us from darkness, not what led us to it." |

Robinson and McConkie are nothing alike. Of all the people that post here + Robinson, only one person has any acceptance in the intellectual world on LDS subjects.

Agreed. That would be giving the BY way too much credit. I am living proof that bad scholars are educated everywhere.

I'm sure he learned that at Duke. It's a good school, steeped in the Classical tradtions. And well endowed (by cigarette money).

Your term "intellectual world" means God only knows what when you use it. I can say categorically that Ronbinson has no standing whatsoever in any legitimate "intellectual world." He's a demomstrable charlatan.

So you could read academic journals on religion and find more references to yourself or other CG members than Robinson's works?
