Glenn -- you wrote, in part: ": How long will Christians
continue to reject the evidence that is out there in anthropology, in order

to hold on to a preferred theological interpretation? God only knows. But
the evidence is clear. Neanderthal and Homo erectus were human in every
sense of the word. For Christians to teach otherwise, flies in the face of
the data."

I am disturbed by your use of the word "Christians" in the above. It
implies all
Christians are cretins, or hypocrites, or something even worse.

Is there a better term you might use? Maybe "some Christians?"

On another subject -- came on Josh McDowell's two books "Evidences..." and
"More Evidences..." in a local bookstore yesterday. I looked for your
ghost-written part but did not find it. Perhaps he has removed it from the
latest editions? Which says well for his honesty.

Peace
