“The Atlantic has an incredible story uncovering the formerly anonymous owner of the Gospel of Jesus’ Wife papyrus… . Fritz denies forging the papyrus, but the reporter of the story seems unconvinced. And for good reason.” Evangelical Textual Criticism

accreditition.

[Rob Fall]And folks want to push accreditition.
„,I’ve got to admit that accreditation is only as good as the people doing it. That goes for college accreditation, ISO, and the specific topic here; peer review. To beat a drum that’s showing wear and tear already from me, this is why the culture of an organization (university, church, whatever) is SO important. Rules mean squat if the culture is against you.

accreditation. I am saying there are some (though not on SI) who look down on schools which are either not accredited or are independent of a particular denomination.

i don’t know that I will say that I particularly “look down” on schools without accreditation, but I will confess to telling my kids that it does matter whether people in the secular world care about the degrees they’ve gotten. I’ve seen too many Bible college grads fail to get in the door in their field of study because of lack of accreditation. It matters.
But you are correct to point out that it will matter a lot less if professors like this are tolerated, and increasingly they are.
