I especially liked her referral to Willaim Lane Craig's review of Aslan's book, as if he represents "main stream" scholarship in the study of Jesus.

What is so ridiculous in this exchange is that Aslan's study and arguments are actually pretty pedestrian. The fact that she made such a big deal about his "Muslim bias" very clearly shows that she has prejudiced his work exclusively on the basis of his personal religious convictions, and not on any of the content of the book itself.
