Speaking only for myself, I think this exchange over John 8:58 has ceased
to be illuminating; it appears more than anything else an exercise in
demonstrating the correctness of one's doctrinal position by citing one's
own preferred set of authorities. For a while this was interesting, but it
is now becoming an exchange of "I say it is!"--"No it isn't!"--"Yes it
is!"--"Isn't!"--"'Tis!"--"Tisn't!"

Anybody else feel this way?
