Don't Tell Dr. Rollston...
I did it.
And I felt a little guilty about it. In fact, when I bought it, I felt like the kids you see in those coming-of-age movies where he's trying to buy beer or a dirty magazine for the first time. He's really not trying to call attention to himself, but all of his actions are doing nothing but drawing attention.
I did it two days ago and I still feel dirty.
Yes, I finally bought a copy of Biblical Archeology Review. After sitting through class after class of Dr. Rollston reminding us that the publication is more about sensationalism than hard scholarship, I finally gave in to the temptation and bought the magazine.
I feel so ashamed.
Don't tell Dr. Rollston, though. He might march over to the Registrar's office and have my 'A' in OTI 'posthumously' changed to a 'D' - and we wouldn't want that, now. Would we?
Some guys say they buy those girlie magazines because they like reading the articles. Maybe I could get away with saying that I bought this magazine for the pretty pictures?
Oh - and for the record - he's right. It is pretty sensationalist.
