Barth Ehrman is quite dishonest, in that he leaves a lot out. He also mkaes things out to be worse than they are. He suffers from former fundy syndrome, in that he used to believe that the Bible contained the exact words of Jesus and was handed to humans by God and all that, and because he found out that that wasn't the case, he deconverted and seems to think that this is a problem, when it isn't.
Well, he claims to be an agnostic, but I doubt with the emotional impact that he'll come back to the faith. He's also either dishonest or disingenuous, as in the debate with WLC, while mentioning that he went to Moody Bible Institute (which is in Chicago, a mostly liberal city, though Idk where Moody stands), I've heard he went to a liberal campus later (and one of his profs said something that shocked and deconverted him).
So, basically what you're saying is that Albert and I are old :) I'll try to get a response up in the next few days.

@jcrebel18 Moody is a fundy school.

I wasn't sure. I just took showers there.
Still, I think his definition of miracles is also crap, along with some other criticisms from the debates I've seen.
