Home Sweet Home (Carrier/Flew Update)
<p>Ok, I'm home. Now is the recovery time. You know what I mean… books and bags come out of the car and into the foyer and there they sit in a big pile which gets smaller each day as I raid it for my essentials until finally I get sick of looking at the junk (read: my wife finally makes me clean it all up) and deal with it. I got home about 3 in the morning but was up by 8 to watch the kids so I am still quite out of it.</p>
<p>That said, I'm looking forward to digging in. I've got a horde of projects to get caught up on and several book reviews to write. Then there are a bunch of announcements and follow ups with Athanatos Ministries and of course conversations to follow up on from my presentations. Naturally, I've got a 10 day old backlog of emails to work through, too.</p>
<p>So, if any body out there is waiting for me to email them, follow up on something, get back to them, etc, I ask for a bit of patience.</p>
<p>In other news, I'm pleased to see that <a href="http://dangerousidea.blogspot.com/2008/03/anthony-horvath-responds-to-carrier-on.html" target="_blank">Victor Reppert[/url] found
my rebuttal of <strong>some</strong> of Richard Carrier's claims about the genuineness of Antony Flew's book. This led to the <a href="
http://atheismsucks.blogspot.com/2008/03/carrier-taken-to-task-over-flew.html" target="_blank">atheismsucks blog[/url] picking up the article as well. Welcome to any visitors from those sites.</p>
<p>I haven't heard a response from Carrier (his blog reports that he is as sick as a dog, but maybe I'm just small potatoes in his book anyway) but I imagine something will pop up eventually. I did get a hit from <a href="
http://www.bowness.demon.co.uk/" target="_blank">Steve Carr[/url], one of the fellahs at Infidels. So far, the most substantial comments are recorded on my forum:

<p>I say substantial but it looks to me more like a hit and run where no one can possibly imagine that Richard Carrier's portrayal of events is in doubt. I am still waiting for comment there on one example from my several that I think is really a slam dunk against Carrier's argument… but perhaps the reason there is no response is because it is such a slam dunk.</p>
<p>Also, I'm pleased to report that I might perhaps have a second 'stalker.' It is always nice to move away from anonymous email hate letters and to actual locations on the net.</p>
<p>Ok, so, that's it. Give me a day or three and I'll be back to the grindstone!</p>
