In what will presumably be a major talking point in the blogosphere in coming days, John Loftus has accused Jim West of hate speech.
I suspect that the discussion of this topic on both Zwingli Redivivus and Debunking Christianity will get heated, and so let me offer this post’s comments section as a place for level-headed discussion of the broader issues as well as the details. For instance, does adding “humor” as a category in a blog post always suffice to turn something that would otherwise be consider hateful or libelous into humor? What are the main issues, and what do you make of this turn of events in the biblioblogosphere?
