It may be that different readers are getting a different impression<\/a> of my treatment of Doherty\u2019s book<\/a> depending on whether they have read the extended ongoing conversation about mythicism that preceded it here.

I posted a round-up on January 26th, 2011, and so I will link to that round-up<\/a> to cover my earlier blogging on mythicism, and below I only include more recent posts on the subject. \u00a0 <\/p>\n
