George, my earliest post on this thread, (p.1, #2) pointed out a place where, in my opinion, Dr. Ruckman stepped way out of line. Am I wrong? He is not criticizing some Bible-doubter, he is not ridiculing some self-righteous scholar. He was mocking innocent people to get a laugh. He did not do it off the cuff, letting his mouth speak before he thought (we have all done that), but he printed it in a pamphlet that would be ultimately read by countless Christians all around the world, including Poland. Unless he has publicly apologized, and agrees to remove that and any other offending jokes, then I consider it justified to point this out.
Do those jokes rise to out-of-line status for you? I feel that you will be sincere and not evasive as Atlas was.
