Wow, Finally, Proof of Solomon

According to the Guild of Biblical Minimalists and to be proven in an upcoming issue of the Biblical Archaeology Review.

Color me skeptical.

  1. It is great to see that the Guild of Biblical Minimalists still have a sense of humour after all the depressing news of the year.

    Mind you, I always thought that such a guild was intended to be a joke itself. No self respecting scientist would have as their basic presupposition that every new piece of evidence must be fitted in a particular way into the existing fabric. It represents the same fundamentalist overtone as any other preset world view.

    • maximalists alone are humorless as well as boring.

  2. I guess that means near-Maximalists are good for an occasional snicker….
