If you can confirm the movies accusation, I'll burn it and flush the ashes tomorrow :-)<BR/><BR/>Thomas: I hate to admit it, but you're right. I hesitated to be seen at the counter with it and asked for a bag to conceal it in as I walked out the door. The irony is that it is a book calling for a return to real masculinity for men. Apparently the publisher/marketer didn't read it before arranging the cover.<BR/><BR/>David: I haven't gotten far enough into the book to find the answer yet, but I too am intrigued.<BR/><BR/>And last but far from least...<BR/><BR/>Baylor: I think your brother is proabably on target with the false causes. I was thinking more in the category of non sequitar, but same idea. For such a brilliant guy with such sweet credentials (undergrad from Harvard, PhD from MIT and research fellow at Harvard at age 26, not to mention professor at U of Chicago) I'm surprised at his neglect of citations and documentation. He tells some crazy stories and throws out some amazing statistics but never documents them. So far, that's the biggest dissapointment, but its still a great read. I'll keep in mind the request for a book review of Waltke, though he's been temporarily displaced by Eldridge who I am intrigued with. <BR/><BR/>BTW, YOU went public with uncle butt butt. Let the record show, I never brought it up online. But now it's fair game. Also, I love "blogan idiot." Is it possible that "blogan" could become the next infinitely flexible explitive to replace Logan's "frick/fricker"? Only time will tell...<BR/><BR/>Baylor:Nate Mihelishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17702094516356506877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21940273.post-1147313658416936072006-05-10T22:14:00.000-04:002006-05-10T22:14:00.000-04:00Mihelis,Are you gonna take that from Thomas?!

Even the definition, as to how you arrived at it, I could not agree more. <BR/><BR/>Now on to the reading... I think that "wild at heart" looks...(how do I say it...hmmm...ok,...) gay. There I said it. <BR/><BR/>The Dictionary is awesome. I got it last semester and I have used it and read in it (a couple NT Wright) and it was certainly worth my time.adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03884836849674163227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21940273.post-1147284142079840072006-05-10T14:02:00.000-04:002006-05-10T14:02:00.000-04:00Hey Nate, The reading list looks pretty good.

In general, I thought it was interesting, but only that. Highly speculative and only loosely Biblical, if that. He's a a good writer and probably a fantastic counselor in many ways, but he needs to be the ghost writer for a theologian rather than trying to do it himself. Plus, I think the guy goes to movies.<BR/>AnnalisaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21940273.post-1147264514353843032006-05-10T08:35:00.000-04:002006-05-10T08:35:00.000-04:00Nate,Thanks for the shout out . . .

It's stuff like this that attaches to you and never lets go. <BR/><BR/>Julie's dad once called me "Uncle Butt-Butt" in front of my neices and since then I have never been known as anything else . . . did I just say that out loud? I'm a blogan idiot.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, with regard to your reading list, I heard Freakonomics was good though, according to my brother who deals in the world of finance and economics, some of the issues treated in the books are "false causes." <BR/><BR/>I wanted to read Waltke's book myself, but never got around to it and would be interested to see a review of it. Also well as the NTPG.<BR/><BR/>Wild at Heart, I have never read it personally. I have only heard one person comment, and they called it "unsound." I am not positive, but I thought I heard he was inclined in some regard toward Open Theism.T. Baylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00662602280196411572noreply@blogger.com
