What Is Thoroughgoing Eclecticism?

Thoroughgoing eclectic the main a advocate of this is an english scholar by the name of keith elliot. The majority of textual critics grudgingly apply principles of intrinsic probability to text critical problems only when they are preferred. Extra evidence is unhelpful or ambiguous.
