bullshit

This is the standard 'atheists are angry at God' nonsense we hear from fundamentalists all the time.

Stein wrote: It’s not their black or white approach that bugs me most though. It’s their insistence that they are rational vs. their refusal to apply their black and white approach to other sources from Antiquity. About all authors mixed fiction with fact. Separating the two is an obsession developed last couple of centuries. The task of historians of Antiquity is exactly to develop reliable methods to do that. But JMs don’t care. I find that appalling.

bullshit, bullshit, bullshit, bullshit, uses methodology for more bullshit, bullshit, bullshit

The rest of your commentary is eccentric red herrings ie. essentially more bullshit

Ironically, Law's paper does talk about how to separate fact from fiction, but the author of Stein's blog!
