And? What's the point of directing me to this thread?

to show that i am neither alone nor unjustified in thinking this isn't really to sort of scholarship we talk about here.

EDIT: And now you have added another thread to your comment without showing that you have edited it.

searching threads takes up priority on my mobile app, and i can't open multiple windows.

You, also, have the option of sending me a private message and I am very open to having a personal conversation with you.

i don't understand why expressing skepticism about a source is out of the realm of the kinds of discussions we normally have here.

it does look like i have slightly mischaracterized his argument, but not the purpose and thesis of his argument, which is contrary to mainstream scholarship.
