Your
approach to the topic is rigorous, positivist, objective, and straightforward.
Your essay is well researched, and your use of endnotes is impressive. My essay
is discursive, autoethnographic, feminist, indigenous, and highly subjective. Our
respective methodologies once more glaringly indicate our different religious
orientations. (Gina Colvin, “Apostasy and Restoration,” in Restorations:
Scholars in Dialogue from Community of Christ and The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints, ed. Andrew Bolton and Casey Paul Griffiths [Provo, Utah:
BYU Religious Studies Center; Salt Lake City Deseret Book, 2022], 165; Colvin
“currently worships locally with the Anglican Church and internationally with
the Community of Christ” [ibid., 153])
To quote from the Colvin
Translation of 1 Sam 17:45:
Then
said Gina to the LDS scholar, Thou comes to me with facts, and with
scholarship, and with research, but I come in thee in the name of muh subjective feelings.
