Lose one argument and move to the next. Since I'm neither a Rabbi/Hebrew scholar nor an expert on Mideastern mammals in ancient times, I have no idea which animal the author and Biblical translators called a hare. But the point is that hares were not to be eaten by human beings, not what the digestive processes of the hare were. The truth doesn't involve whether or not hares chew the cud but whether hares should be part of the human diet. <snip> MCGILL The Bible author made a statement, hares chew the cud, that statement is either true or false. This list is about Bible errancy. Bottom line hares don't chew the cud. As for losing one argument that is according to you in your own mind. I merely moved on too the hares chew cud because you did not address that in the original post. ============================================== Religion and Science are like two modems on a noisy phone line - except that only one of them has an error correction protocol.
