Jack Miles responds
Jack Miles kindly responded to my suggestion and has posted the second appendix of his book Christ: A Crisis in the Life of God on his web site. Among other things it presents the fascinating approach that he took to writing the book itself (I assume it applies to God: A Biography as well). I strongly recommend reading this essay, and if it interests you at all, get his book, which has the same scholarly integrity and clear direct approach, but flows even more in a narrative style.
I'd like to learn AKMA's (and anyone else's) response to Jack's points on postmodern literary criticism of the Bible. It would help me understand more, because I haven't yet taken the time to read AKMA's admired books (one of which should be next on my reading list).
