Michael bird posted a humorous quote from Alvin Plantinga about the term “fundamentalist.” (interestingly, from Warranted Christian Belief.. see below..).

We posted a new Greek Matters post: a first-hand account by a student for whom Greek finally “clicked.” We also posted a small summary of Alvin Plantinga’s Warranted Christian Belief to point to a larger summary that we published at Books At a Glance (about 5,000 words; the book itself is 500 pages, but is a must-read).
