I really appreciate this point (and the follow-up). In writing a research paper recently I noticed exactly what you said. My paper was on open theism and as I read journal articles from both sides it seemed clear that often both sides didn't interact with the other's arguments on their own terms. They would simply assume their own presuppositions in decrying the opposing evidence. I read dozens of articles (written over several years) and the discussion is only getting re-hashed over and over... not much progress going on. I know I need to grow in this area the deeper I get into theological studies. Hi Steve!
