David Ritz Finkelstein (born July 19, 1929, New York City) is currently an emeritus professor of physics at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Finkelstein obtained his Ph.D. in physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1953. Later, from 1964 to 1976, he was professor of physics at Yeshiva University. Much of Finkelstein's work concentrates on the relation between logic and physics, and quantum analogues of classical mathematical structures. In 1963 he proposed that anomalies of quantum mechanical measurement originate in anomalies of the logic that governs quantum mechanical systems. He proposed that dynamic systems are quantized by a fundamental space-time quantum dubbed a "chronon." This view was carried further by Hilary Putnam who argued that quantum logic was the correct logic that describes propositional reasoning generally. In a different direction, he has investigated ball lightning. Finkelstein has also made contributions to general relativity. His mathematical work helped John Archibald Wheeler and other physicists accept the theoretical possibility of a black hole. From Wikipedia under the

Can you recommend any others of the genre? Q. It's called "The Bible Unearthed" by Finkelstein and Silberman. It's all about how the Bible has this beautiful mythology, but that archeology has pretty much disproved nearly all of it as far as actual "truthfulness" goes. (It tells how there is a plethora of evidence to the contrary as far as the stories of Abraham, Moses, the Exodus, the Twelve Kingdoms, David and Soloman, etc.) It's a really good book and I'm looking for more of the same, possibly with a New Testament archeological emphasis. Can anyone recommend a similar book? cnm, you clearly have not read my question. You also seem to be saying that Spiderman is real because the comics are based in New York, which really existed. vinslave, it's a good start - thx.

"God Against the Gods" by Jonathan Kirsch "The Christ Consipiracy; The Greatest Story Ever Sold" by Acharya S "The Jesus Mysteries" by Timothy Freke and Peter Gandy also their other book "Jesus and the Lost Goddess" How's that for starters? I'm not sure if that's what you're hunting for but you can take a peek and see for yourself. _()_ Answered by vinslave - Wed Jan 31 16:23:21 2007 Does archaeology prove the Bible? Q. I've seen this claim several times today. While it's true that some aspects of the Bible have been proven to be accurate by archaeology, it's also true other aspects have been proven false. Finkelstein and Silberman document the archaeological evidence that proves that Israel was never more than a vassel state, and that Soloman and David were nothing more than chieftans. Why would people find it surprising that books that are genuinely old might occasionally record accurate history? How does getting mundain facts occasionally right prove the outrageous parts? Does the fact that Mecca exists and the Qu'ran talks about it somehow prove that Muhammed really preached to the Jin? Maybe I didn't make the question clear.

I've used the example of Minos. There are archaeological findings as well as historical records that indicates his existence, the historical records come from different geographical parts, not only from Crete (Herodotus for example). Even though we see Crete exists, that there are historical records of Minos and archaeological finding of the Minoan civilization, how does such findings validate the records that say that Minos was the son of a god (Zeus in the case), that Poseidon answered his prayers and that his wife (Pasiphae) had a monster as a child (the minotaur) after having sex with a bull. I'm not a bit surprised that christians would say all this is a "myth",… [cont.] Answered by Oedipus Schmoedipus - Tue Jul 4 16:20:16 2006 If the US is such a free country, then whyr Americans reprimanded/have to face consequences for the following?
Q. 1. Speaking against black people, specifically the use of the 'n' word? Example: Michael Richards. Why is David Duke discarded by everyone in the media because he was the ex-KKK leader (even though he has done such wonderful things besides that for our country), but the defender of OJ Simpson (Alan Dershowitz) given such respect at Harvard. 2. Why are Anti-Zionists Americans persecuted? For example: David Cole's life was threatened by the JDL for his video on Auschwitz. Norman Finkelstein was kicked out of his university (he was a professor at DePaul University) because he exposed the lies and plagiarism of the Zionist Alan Dershowitz. 3.
