It has been my experience such individuals are usually theological one-trick ponies. Even if they are to do good work in a particular area this is usually overshadowed by unbalance somewhere else or by mischaracterizations levelled at those questioning their positions. In fact because they have done so much work in a particular area their responses become cut and paste, so that they apply the same argument to everyone regardless of their opponent's theological position. Eventually it'll boil down to salvation by knowledge in many cases. Interestingly though the way these folks respond are usually all the same as far as attitudes. And boy do they love CAPS LOCK and exclamation points!!!!!!!!!
