Eschatology Roundtables Responses

category Announcements

It seems pretty obvious that someone within the hyperpreterist camp has been spearheading a campaign (of sorts) to somehow inundate my inbox with numerous requests for Don Preston to be a part of the rooundtable -and/or requesting me to schedule a debate between Don Preston and Dr. Ken Gentry. Let me make this very simple for all of you who would stoop to these kinds of tactics: I will not be scheduling a debate and I will not be asking Don Preston on to the program. If you are going to email me and request this then save yourself the trouble and do not bother.
