This is very interesting, but why is it posted to Main?
Why wouldn't it be?
It seems like something that would be much more fitting as a personal blog post linked to LW via Discussion.
Ah ok. Yeah, this isn't quite standard LW fare, but I don't think it's that far off. Also, my impression (from reading the Craft and Community sequence) is that LW was intended to be a place for a somewhat broader array of writing under the "rationalist" umbrella than "more stuff like the Sequences."
But Eliezer is welcome to correct me here.
It reminded me of "Professing and Cheering" -- an anecdote from real life; expert's opinion; a conclusion for aspiring rationalists.
As a data point: I liked it; it explained a thing that I suspected but never put into such clear words; and I would like to see more articles like this. And I think it is important for rationality, because religious apologetics is a millenia-old Dark Art, its frequency is high and its impact can be huge.
Make it two data points. I am really enjoiying your (Chris) posts. Besides the content (which I do think belongs to LW) I like the writing style a lot: the entries are long, but engaging.
