Uh... what are you if not an "internet type"? You're here too.

How insulting.
Nor do I pretend to be a historian. (read: that was the point of "you internet types" as opposed to "actual scholars").

That is, like Min, whose only credible voice outside of the 19th century (the tools and methods that historians employ to construct an accurate narrative of the past have sort of, like, progressed since then, ya know) is Richard Carrier, and even he admits that out of thousands of experts only about 5 or 6 (not 5 or 6 dozen... only 5 or 6...lol) buy into the illogical horseshit that illogical horseshitters like Min and other "internet types" (read: self-proclaimed, amateur "historians) buy into. Which might explain his emotional outbursts whenever anyone presses him on his methodology and sources... he knows his conspiracies amount to shit as practically everybody acknowledges--not among here, of course--among those whose career is to actually understand the culture and the texts.
