@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."
