Good point Forest. Perhaps it was more express than other comments that it might work upon the hearts of the children of men, altogether for this blog’s glory. Let’s hope that’s it.

Blogging can be very time consuming, and can easily reach a point of diminishing returns, so I can understand Blake’s decision. I hope the word “permanent” to be an example of hyperbole (think D&C 19) used to express that frustration.

Shoot Mark D., I’d still be a penal substitutionist without Blake chewing me out on this blog!

Best Wishes, Blake. I have to say that even when I disagree for whatever reason, I am impressed by the effort to make any approach to the subject as bulletproof as possible. I have changed my position and understanding of at least two major issues based upon your writings.

Mark: Your comments are worthy of response. However, I have decided to take a permanent leave from blogging. All the best to you and yours and thanks to all who have commented here.

Blake, you will have to explain the vicious circle thing, by the way. If you are suggesting the question of how God came to have a body in the first place, I answered extensive questions about my ideas about that here.
