I also want everyone to know I am planning a fuller project in dealing with this one. For now, this is just to generate discussion. Don't know how much I'll be able to do extended discussion any more here either.

Nice to see you back, Nick.

PBog's approach seems to be (1) Give 'faith' your own idiosyncratic definition (2) Tell Christians that this definition of 'faith' is what they mean when they use the word (3) Proceed to demolish 'Christian faith' by attacking the newly defined word.

One problem... he's defeated a strawman.

Along these lines, I found the previous day's log post exegeting Hebrews 11:1 to be useful, since Boghossian seems to have put so many of his eggs in that basket.
