No commentary today
I'd planned to finish up my commentary on the Book of Joshua today - there's little enough material in the last chapters that I think I can do it in one entry - but my father sent me a very hefty e-mail and I ended up writing a day's worth of words for him instead.
The subject on which we're writing each other is actually related. I told my father a little over a week ago that I was an atheist. He didn't come after me during the actual Skype conversation in which I said it, but his first salvo of Christian apologist answers to atheists - all of which you've probably heard before if you're interested in such things - started appearing in my e-mail box within 48 hours. I'll be answering them until he tires out. That might be bad news for the commentary if we weren't so close to the end, but I'm sure I can squeeze out one more post in the next day or two.
TTFN.
