    Fantastic list, and not because my blog is on it.

    That French article is fascinating, especially amid all the talk these days about living radically, and so on.

    Also, what I love about Peter Leithart as that no one seems to know whose team he is on. Sort of like Wright or Barth in that respect, which makes them always fun. This article was another great example of that: how often do you hear people make the kind of sweeping anti-biblicism claims that Leithart of all people ends up defending/semi-defending.

    Anyway, great stuff. I’m loving the blog, gents.

    Thanks, AF. Why is Leithart’s position surprising? Has he said something in the past that would make this seem odd? I am not too familiar with him as a scholar.
