AKMA and Margeret dropped by last night, thus disproving a rumor: I can now confirm that they are indeed corporeal.

They schlepped all the way to our home late-ish because Ann and I spent the weekend at my in-laws’ celebrating Rosh Hashonah (Happy 5763, everybody!), and then they stayed late because we were having fun.

AKMA wasted no time in raising the hermeneutical issue that he’s been working on, a version of which he and I blogged about in the thread we now refer to as The Topic that Drove Away Our Readers.

But it’s a really important topic, and one that has also deeply engaged both Margaret and Ann, because it unjams science, ethics, and the relationship of the world’s religions. To my surprise, we didn’t resolve it once and for all, but hearing AKMA and Margaret describe the current state of biblical studies gave me a much better understanding of the issues they face.

We will do this again, Margaret and AKMA. This is non-negotiable demand.
