5 years ago I founded /r/AskBibleScholars and I’ve been wanting to bring this knowledge off-Reddit and into the wider Internet. Thankfully, @[email protected] has been instrumental in getting this set up for us.
I have a handful of scholars that have agreed to run through some beta testing and they have their accounts set up.
Right now, we could use any of you to make accounts there and ask some questions. This will give us all the opportunity to test out the software and generate feedback.
If you would be so kind, then please head over to AskBibleScholars.com, create an account and ask some questions.
Thank you.
I’m an atheist, but since I consider the Bible an influential part of our cultural history, I don’t need to believe in its contents to find discussion of it interesting and worthwhile from a contextual point of view. So I’m happy to help out. :)
Thank you!
Just an update for you. Your question is a good one and the scholars are eager to answer it. However, we’ve identified one of our first major bugs with the software and it is preventing the scholars from answering your question. The developer is working on hunting down the root cause of the problem so it can be fixed.
All of that being said, thank you for helping us test out the software. It’s going to pay off huge for the future of the site.
I’m looking forward to seeing their answers, and in the meantime, I’m glad I helped locate a bug! :)
The developer finally got that bug fixed and there are a couple of responses waiting for you. Thanks for your help and patience!
I got emails about the responses, so I’m happy to confirm that site feature is working, too.
Great! Thanks for letting me know. I didn’t know that was a feature.
