I have ADHD, but I’m not one of those people who likes to bang on about being “neurodiverse” and use it as an explanation of (or excuse for!) things I don’t do well. I haven’t even mentioned that diagnosis here previously, and I’m unlikely to mention it much in future. I have really struggled over the last ten years (Yes, ten years!) to focus on any serious output in writing and recording material, both here and elsewhere, and it has been a source of frustration for me. I have wanted to produce content, but have not done so. I want to change that, and I have plans for a bunch of articles here (and videos over at the YouTube channel) in the near future (by which I mean the next year, but especially the next six months). This study trimester is nearly over, and there’s a blank trimester before my next course (for those who don’t know, I am re-training part-time in psychology). I’ll be working, so not completely free (not even mostly free!), but I’ll have some time. Subjects that are currently in the works:

• Is divine command ethics relativism? (No of course not, what a ridiculous thing to say. None of the serious proponents or critics of the view have ever said that, nor has the literature on meta-ethics. But some people have said it, so here we are.)
• Some comments on William Lane Craig’s use of a divine command theory of ethics to defend the Israelite conquest of Canaan in conversation with Alex O’Connor. This one is a video.
• Athanasius on hell, revisited (Where I explain my change of mind about what St Athanasius thought about hell, I complain that “traditionalists” about hell did not the case for Athanasius view better, and I briefly note that this change of mind also involves some evidence that Athanasius was not, contrary to the claims of some, a Universalist.
• Another video, this time on the Canon of the Bible. I respond to false, historically indefensible, and grossly uncharitable claims of anti-Protestant apologists that the Reformers intentionally “removed” books from the Bible because they disagreed with them. I’ve done so here at the blog before, but I thought the video format might be useful to a different audience.
• A written response to philosopher Tim Hsiao, who argued, unsuccessfully I think, that the moral statuses of contraception and homosexuality stand or fall together.
• Another post in that series on biblical passages that have created the controversy called “women in ministry” and related issues. This post is almost finished.

Stay tuned. I’d like to call it a comeback, but we’ll see how I’m able to manage!
