Steve Hays vs. Peter Sean Bradley on Oral Tradition
My good friend Steve Hays has posted an interesting item in response to Peter Sean Bradley. The post emphasizes the interesting point that John records the fact that one of Jesus’ sayings was either misreported or misinterpreted in the apostolic era among Jesus’ own disciples. The specific passage is John 21:22-23Jesus saith unto him, “If…

Is Long Hair Shameful?
Steve Hays took issue with my objection that the Shroud depicts a man with long hair, which is consistent with medieval iconography but inconsistent with Paul’s teaching regarding hair length. 1 Corinthians 11:14-15Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him? But if a…

Two Examples of the Guilt by Association Fallacy
The first comes from Mark Shea (trying to defend Cardinal Pell), who tries to associate a literal understanding of Scripture with Atheistic and Fundamentalist advocates (and them with each other). The second comes from my dear friend Steve Hays (trying to respond to something I wrote) who tries to associate a particular argument with naturalism…

Reviewing a Blog Exchange Between Hays and Hubner
I’ve been watching, with some sadness, a blog exchange between two guys with whom I’m on good terms. I thought I’d post my thoughts on the exchange here for what it’s worth. It’s a long post and probably only of interest to me, the two guys, and a few of our mutual friends. Nevertheless, I…

Response to Steve Hays on the Second Commandment
This is not a full rebuttal to what Steve Hays wrote on the second commandment (link to Steve’s post). Instead, it is a heavily short-handed rebuttal, written with his high level of understanding of Scripture and theology in mind. The goal is to persuade him, not to respond to the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox…

Steve Hays on Liberty’s Schedule of Discipline
He’s joking, of course, but I think his points will strike a chord with lots of people who are bewildered by the mildness of Liberty’s decision regarding Ergun Caner (link to Hays’ post). To God be the Glory!

Another Consequence of Forbidding Marriage to Clergy
We have previously noted that one consequence of forbidding marriage to clergy is that one gets a higher ratio of homosexual clergyman (link to brief discussion). Another consequence is that priests do to nuns the kinds of things that Maria Monk reported (link to Vatican’s acknowledgment that this happens). The report makes Steve Hays’ satire…

Response to Scott Windsor (regarding Steve Hays and Sola Scriptura)
I see that Scott Windsor (Roman Catholic) has responded to Steve Hays (Reformed) on the topic of Sola Scriptura (link to response). Steve is more than capable of carrying on the discussion himself. I’d like to simply address a few of the issues in Scott’s post: 1) The definition of Sola Scriptura I realize there…
