I apologise for being so closed-minded that I actually think that historical claims are investigable.

I apologise for having looked at evidence and having drawn a conclusion.
I apologise for drawing a conclusion which differs from yours.
I apologise for wanting a rational discussion.

I apologise for not having freaky mystical experiences to rely on.
I apologise for maintaining strong religious convictions in spite of that clear deficit.
I apologise for thinking that that does no discredit to my commitment to truth.

In short, I apologise that I'm not another Slashdot clone, and for mistaking this thread for an intelligent discussion as to whether religious believers need to be concerned about this research. In future, I shall endeavour only to post comments which are unchallenging of hidden assumptions and uncritical of philosophical materialism.
