“Why is this important?”

More honesty?

Maybe he’ll stop slanting everything to the US deep-state and leftist/Democrat line.

He hasn’t been involved with wikipedia for many years. He too has lamented what it has become.

His current project (for a few years now) is https://encyclosphere.org/

I relate. I became a Christian at age 27. I used to be what I call an “intellectual agnostic”. Though the big difference between him and me was that I always saw myself as a “friend to Christianity”, though I was ridiculously ignorant of the actual teaching of Christ as well as the content of the bible (especially the OT).

I strongly believe that we don’t choose God. Rather, He chooses us.

I’ll just write a Wiki article saying he’s not lying, and then you can cite to it. :-)

Sanger published a detailed account of his journey to faith as mentioned in the article, here:

Very interesting.

To save “it”? To save what? He’s not associated with Wikipedia any more, hasn’t been for a long time. What are you talking about? If you are saying he’s not a believer, how do you know this?

Good! Now, if the Has-Been-Media (HBM) would “come to Jesus” things might turn around.

Yes, very interesting.

I’m wondering if he was on the Atheism/Agnosticism forum and if so, under what name? It was so long ago, but I still remember some of the posters there.

God is so amazing! I’m so thankful He’s not done with any of us, as long as we’re still breathing.
