Yes to this, from @damonlinker on Reza Aslan:http://bit.ly/1vHa1CB

@rezaaslan@DamonLinker@DouthatNYT Is it fair to say that sacred texts also shape the worldview of believers. -
@bobsmietana@DamonLinker@DouthatNYT Or that texts have inherent meaning outside of one's confrontation and interpretation of them. -
@rezaaslan@DamonLinker@DouthatNYT Those who believe text is revealed say there is an inherent meaning--but they have to work to find it -
@bobsmietana@DamonLinker@DouthatNYT Yes but even most literalist literalist, when pushed, admits otherwise. Else 2B Xtians wud all agree -
@rezaaslan@bobsmietana@DouthatNYT I don’t disagree with your far more nuanced statement here. But you said something else in the interview -
@DamonLinker@bobsmietana@DouthatNYT No. YOU said I said something else; something I've clarified in 100s interviews if you cared to check -
@rezaaslan@bobsmietana@DouthatNYT Quote 2 of 3: "It’s just intrinsically false. That’s not what happens."

@rezaaslan@bobsmietana@DouthatNYT I truly don’t see what you’re objecting to. -
@DamonLinker@rezaaslan Does that make sense? Felt like part of the meaning of what he said was lost without the rest of the quote
