[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]12:13 again with a PS.  Quackery gets published every day. Did you also buy the 911 conspiracy theory books?

Finkelstein may be right on the money, or he may be looking to make a quick buck by stirring up controversy. No matter. What's relevant here is that the NY Times article you linked to points out that respected archeolgists are still in sharp disagreement. I don't think that either you or I is qualified to say who's right.[/quote]

Finkelstein is an academic archeologist who has everything to lose if his findings are not based on fact.  14 years later, no one is refuting them.  I went back to the articles and don't see where he was refuted.  Both references to the word “refute” were not to Finkelstein, but to 19th scholars who were studying biblical origins long before Finkelstein was born

I understand you don’t like these findings, but that’s not a reason to distort them or to malign the messenger.  If you can’t handle this information,  I suggest you just put it out of your mind – that’s what most people do.
