Funny! Well, prepare for Marc Carpenter to paste one of his lenthy articles on your blog. He seems to like to use them for that. Beceome acquainted with the delete features on your blog ;-)
Well, Marc Carpenter does not engage in discussion, and usually people of the OutsideTheCamp mindset don't discuss. They assert, assert and assert, and then post links or post long sermonettes. I've seen a number of Marc Carpenter "comments" on other blogs, and he seems to think they are billboards for his propaganda. It's not interactive AT ALL.
It's not the case that we are against discussion or fair comments, but they should be on topic and make sense. I kept your comments on my blog because they seem fair, so far. Even though I think your OutsideTheCamp perspective is horrible, you have not said anything that seems necessary to remove. I may disagree with you, but that doesn't mean I will automatically be deleting things.
I will delete things by people that I do not think are beneficial or related to the particular post, especially if they presume to use my blog as a billboard for spewing long, venomous sermons, i.e. what Marc Carpenter does. Such things will be deleted with great haste.
Discussion? Yes. Pinheads presuming that my blog should serve their theological agenda? No.
October 5, 2022: Lately I have been working on a backup site for Calvin and Calvinism (click) on Blogger since the main site has been disconnected on occasion, so be sure to visit there and bookmark the site for later usage. It is just getting started, but the posts will eventually be linked and supplied.
I am an evangelical Christian with a B. A. in Biblical Studies from Criswell College. My basic doctrinal positions are Baptistic, moderately Calvinistic and historic premillennial.
One of my preoccupations is researching and blogging primary sources that relate to my exploration into the revealed will of God as viewed in Calvinistic history. For decades I worked with David Ponter as a co-researcher and close friend. Together we have compiled the material on my Theological Mediations blog, and on his Calvin and Calvinism (backup site #2) website.

Thanks, Tony! The outside the camp guy must have followed your link; I got a blast from their popgun.

If you don't want a discussion, then don't have a blog where comments are allowed.
