You have already admitted this cannot be used here.

So I dont excpect a different answer from you no matter how I have used this term.

I understand this, and would agree.


She would not be a expert within theology.

She would only be an expert in certain areas of her study. Im sure while much of her work was quoted as sub par, much would not be.

Because "tale-tale-telling" is their religion or what we call religion in their primitive mythology, just as sophistry was in Plato's Academy where they were 'look-alikes' as well, that we call "Christians. In this sense did M. M. not even understand that she was looking at religion as a Anthropologist, which here then is the hight of ignorance by the experts in the field.

What. Are. You. Talking. About? That doesnt make sence.

Let. Me. Spell. It. Out. For. You.


Most mythers do not have a real education on the subject. The mythers who do have a education, do not agree with each other, and oppose the people who are educated on the topics at hand.




There is intellectually responsible research, and there are those that wing it based on ignorance.

Which camp you belong to is your choice.

It is not the case that there are only two camps. There are as many opinions as there are scholars, or more.

The so called intellectually responsible research has not led to any real consensus. No one agrees with anyone else about much of anything.

outhouse

Well that simply isnt true.


There is consencus in many areas.


Basically your stating to remain ignorant, because no one is educated or knowledgeable on any subject, because there are disagreements in scholarships on certain topics.


I'll take a educated opinion, over a uneducated opinion, and that is the crux concerning "appeal to authority"

outhouse

When the new forum comes up, we will so how long uneducated opinions "cut it" with those trained in historical methods, or simply put, more educated in this area.


When it comes to educated and uneducated, there are two camps. But only in that context.

outhouse

All nonsense. The field is much broader then the opologetics you falesly claim. :constern01:


From wiki


Definition (of bible studies)
The Oxford Handbook of Biblical Studies defines the field as a set of various, and in some cases independent disciplines for the study of the collection of ancient texts generally known as the Bible.[1] These disciplines include but are not limited to archaeology, Egyptology, textual criticism, linguistics, history, sociology and theology.[1]


No where does it state internet bloggers are the utmost authority

Thanks very much for researching an authoritative definition of "Biblical History".

I have taken the liberty of highlighting one of the fields mentioned in the definition - THEOLOGY.

Now we are almost half way there.

Would it be too much to ask now that you cite an authority on the definition of "Ancient History"?

Once this is established we can make a comparison between the definitions of the two fields.

Thank you outhouse.
