	I must say, what an agreeable fellow!  Why, I bet even the
curmudgeonly proto-transhumanist Damien Broderick could enjoy the company of

Agreed, he does make it sound like something that would be bearable.  The
use of critical methods assumes no particular belief system.  To correctly
utilize historical criticism, one must almost be a non-believer.  So it
seemed to me at the time I learned about it, so very many years ago.
