Bringin' it back to Wolfe by the long road

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Only in the same limited sense that Middle-Earth is "Christian." 

There is no Christ, no Theoanthropos. 

Yes, I agree with your other points (indeed I've probably made most of them 
myself somewhere in the archives) but this is the only really meaningful 
definition of "Christian."
