At least that seems to be where Jim West is taking the discussion of the SBL affiliation with bibliobloggers.
Doug and the rest of you lot who can’t seem to get a grip on reality (and he mentions them), take part in the SBL Blogging Program Unit, or don’t. It really is just that simple. If you choose to take part, great. If not, nothing is accomplished by your childish and small minded ongoing campaign of whining and sniveling.
Grow up, in other words. Or better yet, join Joel.
I much preferred the polite and potentially productive, dialogue-seeking tone of Mark Goodacre and Chris Brady. I am actually open-minded about the possibilities of the official affiliation due to their involvement.
Jim has also suggested in a comment to my previous post that perhaps I would not care to attend the bibliobloggers dinner in New Orleans (though I've made no such indication that I thought that was a joke-why the hate?). I still plan to attend if I'm allowed to, Jim. Otherwise, if dissenters are excluded, then I guess I'll be having dinner with Chris Heard instead.
Doug, you and me may be sitting by ourselves
ReplyDeletei think you and chris will be very happy together.
