Blog on Jesus Seminar

I have created a separate blog (Jesus Seminar Critically Examined) devoted to critically examining the Jesus Seminar, including its underlying agenda and assumptions, as well the many disingenuous arguments and conclusions mounted by their adherents. The articles are by no means authored only by me. The first series of articles look at the origin of the Jesus Seminar and are several years old, but are well-worth revisiting. Thus far the blog has online:

• Introducing this blog (Jesus Seminar Critically Examined)
• Deliver Us from the Jesus Seminar (introduction to a series of articles featured by Crisis magazine)
• Introduction by Rev. Rodger Hunter Hall, STL (introduction to the Crisis magazine series)
• Prof. John McCormick, "The Genesis of the Jesus Seminar" (Part 1 in the series)

I dedicate the new blog to our friend and commentor, who calls himself "Realist, Former Convergent," in the vain hope that it may begin to ameliorate the pathological aversion towards recognizing the ineluctable role of fides in the workings of ratio, from which he and so many suffer suffer as a result of their affection for John Dominic Crossan and other similarly infected members of the Jesus Seminar.
