Like Dick Carrier. He's never held an academic position in his life.


Not all historians need to work in academia (except in some Bizarro World) - he's trained as a historian and I'm not sure if he doesn't have better qualifications than many of his online critics do.

I've yet to see a scrap of original research post-PhD.


Who gives a flying fuck about what you have or haven't read?

It's irrelevant. :coffee:
