Talk:The Copenhagen School (theology)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Dating of events in the OT
Nice try, but...
For Noah's flood, there are so many theories around that you could devote a whole article to them, and still come to no conclusion; plus, more importantly, the direction of modern biblical studies is to treat the OT as aliterary text, not a historical one, making the identification of"the" flood a non-issue.
For Abraham also, there is so much written about him (what about Abe as Sin the moon-god) that again I doubt you can summarise it all into 50 words or less.
Ans that's only two of the stories in Genesis alone. Are you going to start at the Creation and work your way through to Ezra, to Maccabees?
Pull down thy vanity I say. (Or in plain English, I don't think there's electrons enough in Wikipedia to finish the task you've set yourself in this section) PiCo 03:29, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

- I agree that the sections entered by User:John D Croft does not seem to have any relation to the description of the Copenhagen or minimalist school of theology, which is the topic of the article. The article shouldn't be about corelations betweenb biblical exegesis and middleeastern archeology - but should only describe the theoretic basis for the Copenhgane School of theology.·Maunus· ·ƛ· 07:04, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
