If true, all this, only a fool would think to be able to deceive the experts and pretend even to resell to weight in gold (I imagine) a false like that. Ditto for the "affair'' Mortom Smith: only a fool could produce such a alleged false evidence and then diligently put again the original on the same shelf from which he had taken it, in the library of the monastery of Mar Saba, available to any expert that wanted to verify its authenticity. Even in this case you follows the same disparaging 'cliché': raise a denigrating fuss to the beginning, with abundant use of means (since there is always some catholic 'devout' which puts his hand to the wallet!), and then shamelessly admit, when oblivion comes down on the issue, that the material was genuine ... And this is what happened with the honest work of the researcher Morton Smith ... Littlejohn S . |

Stop picking on Little John. Gli italiani sono il mio popolo preferito sulla terra.. On the subject of the thread I have noticed that Alin and others have 'cooled down' a little with respect to their claims to being able to prove that the text is a forgery. It seems that they can't come up with a 'slam dunk' and have decided instead to await the findings of the ink test which is prudent.

My favorite people is a 'virtual' people and is made up of people with common sense, with enough intellectual honesty and, above all, willing to confront themselves constructively with the other, and not in a provocative way as unfortunately someone does ... Are not the refutations toward what I expose that bothers me, in fact I consider that is positive, because they give me the opportunity to check the tightness of my historical reconstructions; but is the way openly hostile and free of charge provocative that push me toward a legitimate reaction, which may not like ...

As an Italian let me ask - have you ever had real balsamico in Modena? Is it really that great or is just really good for vinegar?

I wasn't aware that the Smithsonian channel had postponed the broadcast until tests from the ink come back - http://www.usatoday.com/story/ondead...tican/1600457/

I have enjoyed some terrific Mortadella.
Depends on whom produces it, sanitation, care, and the quality of the ingredients. . |
