A commenter, Ennis, has taken the time to respond to my post from a few weeks ago about the top ten worst Bible stories with some extensive comments on his blog. Ennis is clearly smart, articulate, and intellectually committed to tackling the issues I raise here on their merits. I have left a few comments on his blog (here and here), and I invite all my Readers to visit him and chime in there as well as here if they like. Our dialogue is entirely on the meritsand I am as pleased as ever at having a thoughtful “sparring partner.”
