Congratulations!

Way to go!! Got your degree!! I know you're feeling good. Welcome back to the real world! --Matt Innis (Talk) 21:27, 15 June 2007 (CDT)

Oh, that "real world" comment conjured up imagery from The Matrix. Yes, welcome back!  :-) ---Stephen Ewen 04:01, 22 June 2007 (CDT)

CZ Live

Hi Mike.

I noticed you removed CZ Live from C.S. Lewis. I replaced it. Check out Category:CZ Live for when it is appropriate to actually remove the tag.

Also, let me add my congrats on your getting your degree! Any plans to go on to grad school? Just curious.

Welcome back!

Hi Mike, welcome back! Good to see you around. :-) Stephen Ewen 21:16, 19 November 2007 (CST)

Michael: If I'm not mistaken, your very interesting Authors of the Bible is still classified as a stub. Isn't it time to move it to a Developed Article status? Roger Lohmann 21:21, 13 January 2008 (CST)

Mythology

Michael: We are forbidden to use the tag POV (i.e., Point-of-view) here at CZ. Your recent edit of Abraham, however, is just that. Judeo-Christian scripture is as much a mythology as Buddhist, Hindu, Vedic, Islam, Greek, Roman, Toltec, Wiccan, Celtic, or any other major religion. Simply because you, personally, believe in this mythology does not, from the standpoint of scholarship, make it any less of a mythology. Kindly maintain your academic objectivity when editing. Thanks, and blessings... --Michael J. Formica 08:12, 27 January 2008 (CST)
