This is a discussion board, DTK. Light remarks are part and parcel of discussion. I added the smiley to indicate it was a light remark. You will just have to accept it as such.
Yes, it is a discussion board that trafficks in holy things, and indeed there is often a place for light remarks. But in the context of rebuking a man as though his faith in Holy Scripture rests in the hands of men with nothing but his own personal bias, and then offer an ignorant remark about the discovery of Sinaiticus is incongruent.

As for my approach to Rich, I have done the best I can in the limited time and scope of this forum. If you can do better, please be my guest to address the issue from the perspective of the reformed faith. I have never been inclined to listen to back seat drivers, they are a distraction; please be my guest and take the wheel.
I did take the wheel and corrected your repetition of Burgon's error. I've never been inclined to listen to front seat drivers, especially when they don't know where they're going, or in this case, where they've been.

Cheers,
DTK
