Well some of us are saying that. Daniel is convinced that Piper wrote it, but he offers no internal or external evidence for his claim. Poor diluted boy.

Now we know the truth. | The folks at Magherafelt Reformed Baptist were convinced I was a 55 year old man because I commented on their pastor's blog using GI Williamson's picture. When the pastor in question pointed this out to me, I replied by saying that I am sure GI would be flattered to know that people think he is only 55 (when, in reality, he is in his mid-80s).
