Ran across [url=https://www.academia.edu/10039504/_Protective_Strategies_and_the_Prestige_of_the_Academic_A_Religious_Studies_and_Practice_Theory_Redescription_of_Evangelical_Inerrantist_Scholarship]this[/url] and thought you might find it interesting. Its a bit of a dry read so I'll summarize. The author is basically saying that religious scholars who claim that the bible is inerrant should be studied as examples of how religion distorts academic thought. "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." - George Santayana

I've read the abstract at the above link, but haven't had time to read the [url=http://stephenlyoung.weebly.com/uploads/4/9/2/1/49211965/stephen_young_protective_strategies_and_the_prestige_of_the_academic.pdf]complete article[/url] yet. I'll try to get to it this week. "The world is my country, and do good is my religion." - Thomas Paine
