Oh, the Freedom from Religion Foundation. No doubt they are as objective as AIG. ;-)

Glad to see you're judging material on its merits, not on its source.

The mention of AIG and the emoticon were intended to convey Sarcasm.

My point was that, as a spinter group, Freedom From Religion might be inclined to, say, shade the fine points, as AIG has been observed to do.

I don't know about the German Language Historical Society, or whatever their name was, because I haven't gotten around to reviewing the material yet. You will notice that I responded to donh by Googling on Red Queen Strategy and answering enthusiastically. It might just take a bit for me to look things up.

I don't have any specific dog in that fight, because I never read Speer or "Plain Talk". Check out my post 476 (or thereabouts) for the title and ISBN number of a book I remembered when treating of the topic. (I read the book at least 10 years ago, before I had ever heard of Free Republic or of crevo threads...)

Thanks for the description of your reasoning. It seems somewhat facile though, if your Roman Catholic background might remind you of the parable of the wheat and the tares.

Cheers!

The article is a monograph by Carrier; a more popularized version of his article in German Studies Review. FFRF merely published it.
