John, courtesy link to theologians-qua-professionals doing actuarial, medical, and public education analyses of your theological comments.

Another Calvinist gave me the heads-up.

The comments are provocative, but not faith-hostile.

Bye the bye, I love Terry Virgo!

Link to your dustup, entry via empirical theology:

Peace and best wishes,

We considered it, and may again if we decide to keep comments on the blog.

Speaking of comments, today's Washington Post's ombudsman column covers the challenges of moderating comments. In this example, an estranged spouse offered details in an article's comments section that directly contradicted what was said in the article. A flood of comments came in as a response, making it a philosophical question of whether to remove nested comments. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/arti...

I work for Desiring God. We turned on the comments on July 27 as an experiment. We're still collecting data and feedback before making a final decision, but everyone's input here will be taken into consideration. Thanks!
