A well written and cleverly disguised Isolationist redux.  Nothing new here.

Nice article which very nicely exposes the fallacious nature of much of the nonsense being peddled to the public. The 'conspiracy' angle hooks a lot of folks, unfortunately. As archeology progresses in the Americas much more will unfold of course, we have seen the dating of humans and civilization go back much earlier in the last few years, for example. So far the diffusionist theories have little evidence. It will be archeology that provides the evidence if it exists.

The counter to mainstream and the continuing impasse between mainstream and other disciplines in the field...which they continue to reject... is evidenced by Shock and others. Strange this rejection and behavior... when one considers that archaeology and anthropology were targets of the same skepticism as they developed.
 
Their unbridled arrogance and ego has now grown proportionally and can be compared to the physicists and others who rejected early theorems counter to Einstein.....the 'grant syndrome' at work.... no doubt. That or moral cowardice in dealing with fixed pre-concieved ideologies....and inherent weakness for accepting change....and or research that doesn't fit within their box. Appears they have forgotten the importance of and value of imagination, as inspiration, for working within the method and joint cooperative analysis. Let alone recognize the expertise of others in a particular field/s that might enhance their own.

Don't be so hard on yourself, some of your posts are not spam and even quite interesting.

Part of the Rush To Publish Syndrome, itself a critical part of the Publish Or Die Rule throughout academia.

In the case of the possibly fallacious Nazereth, the local economy's survival literally hangs on "proving" it no matter what.  That is a powerful incentive to "discover" new forms of proof.

The Catholic Church did a study some time back and discovered that it had far more relics than saintly bodies to properly account for them.  Every Catholic Church required a relic when it was consecrated; consequently, many of those so-called "relics" lacked any valid provenance but were accepted nonetheless.

Human nature is to reach a conclusion first, and then seek out substantiating evidence afterwards to support that conclusion, the exact opposite of what it should be.
