I much appreciate the honesty here. Being in error is quite a different
thing than being fraudulent. We are all in error about numerous things.

It depends upon whether or not the curators believed the new data. Not
every new thing is true (unless you are willing to accede the truth of
evolution because it is a newly reported scientific view). If they believed
that Neanderthal walked like us and they didn't change them, then yes I
would agree it was fraud. But I can't get into their heads so I will give
them the benefit of the doubt.

Why don't you ask him rather than have us speculate about it?

Maybe like the original describers of Neanderthal and Piltdown, Hayward is
in error?

You are using the ENGLISH context of 'land'. 'eretz' is what is under
question here and if you insist on using it as planet earth, then why can't
I insist on having Abe disobey God? To translate this as
The Lord said to Abram,
>"leave your country (or land, strong's 776) your people and your father's
>household and go to the planet I will show you.
Should also be acceptable. Afterall, what was God's INTENTION?
