…this of DM's, to "Don't-confuse-me-with-the-facts" Lance:

I could be wrong, but as best I can tell, in theological circles, there
appear to be biases expressed against concepts like "rationalism" and
"dualism" and "reductionism" etc. You seem to try and operate in line with
those biases without really understanding the reasoning behind the
criticisms leveled against the ideas expressed by these words.

He left out gnosticism. Like so many other people, you have an inexplicable bias against this, too, which could be cleared up by a little more reading and careful reflection. Don't just naively believe those gnostic-bashers because they're cool.

I've been meaning to speak to you too about your stubborn, knee-jerk rejection of the pelagian position. It has its merits. Put on your thinking cap.
