I will leave the discussion on Autism out. If you don't like the parallel, think of another one.

As for disagreeing with a couple of PhDs, I must agree with you. Just like I said concerning all of us amateurs v the studied Bible experts, I don't tend to take one or two alleged experts over so many who disagree. I may consider that "sola scriptura" is generally true. But if we think that we each one know enough to decide what it means, we are fools. It takes a bunch of well-studied people spending a lot of time going over things to make some of those decisions. Then a lone Phd in Greek, or whatever (even theology) comes along and says that everybody before him was simply wrong? I don't think so. There may be legitimately more to learn. But the very idea that these new guys have found some serious point of theology that everyone else for the past 2,000 years has missed is simply laughable.

And if they and their MOTA predecessor had not suckered so many in, I would be laughing about it.
