The point I make here by way of introduction, is that both cult and cultural activities all are religious; everything you do is religious. … Everything is religious, and we don’t divide our life into a religious and non-religious areas so that part of it God’s involved with, and part God’s not involved.
Whoever guesses correctly wins… a contest.
What makes this even funnier is that it follows a crack about defining “cult” as an isolated group with strange ideas that lives in southern California…

Jason,
I hear you. I almost guessed Bahnsen until I remembered the title.

The “Good Guy” threw me – so I just picked some good guys and thought that it might be something that was said at a WHI taping.

I thought about disguising it as merely a “Guess who”, but what’s the point of posting a predictable quote?
Is it time for a bigger hint yet?

So it’s not a “Good Guy” as we usually define it around here. Is it a morally good guy?

No, it is definitely a “Good Guy”, in a sense particular to the CO.

The most counterintuitive answer has to be Kline. I’m going with MGK.

Ding Ding Ding!! We have a winner! (That is to say, MGK — sean snuck another guess in while I was typing)
Here is some of the “…” to provide some context:
I have been listening through these lectures by MGK on KP (from 2000), a second time, taking sparse notes as I go. I will publish the whole index when it’s done.
But you can listen to Merry himself starting at 4:52 of 5B side 1, getting himself warmed up into his discussion of Covenantal Stipulations in the garden of Eden, Adam’s duty to construct the Holy City of God.

Ah.

“have been listening through these lectures by MGK on KP (from 2000), a second time, taking sparse notes as I go. ”
A _second_ time? My goodness, all the Kline stuff there amounts to like 60 hours of audio!
(Yeah, yeah, I should listen to them again too. Just wish the audio quality was better.)

Yes, a second time — after the 1st time was done, I knew there were all kinds of great bits in there, and I had no idea where they were! Once my index is published, then you won’t need to listen a second time, you can navigate directly to the .mp3 and time offset you need for a particular topic.
If I ever listen to the OT exegesis and OT prophets courses, I will take such notes the first time around.

Rube,
Just a reminder: don’t take notes and drive.

A pad of paper is not a cellphone… I only have to pick up the notepad every 15-20min or so and scribble 4 digits and 3-4 words.
What’s really tough is to write in the notepad without spilling my beer
