However, parasitology is an important field of study throughout the Middle East, and the researchers could easily have found more than one laboratory specialized in the area in Jerusalem.  Thus, the recourse to a French specialist is indeed suspicious and should be explained by the authors of the article.  Perhaps they confused "parasitology" with "Paris-itology"?</description></item><item><title>Dead Sea Scroll scrum</title><link>http://cosmiclog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2006/11/17/15197.aspx#90688</link><pubDate>Thu, 15 Mar 2007 15:26:37 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:90688</guid><dc:creator>mmays premierwv</dc:creator><description>dont know, but i will meet this jesus the son of god one day.  and i know that the jewish people are the children of god. and you better not touch them.  if we bless them, so shall we be bless.  is it so hard now to be nice .  all government shows hate and they should just talk and show love.  but nobody really  cares, it all about me and me and what i want!  so you better watch, you just miight see this man all jesus, the son of god!</description></item><item><title>Dead Sea Scroll scrum</title><link>http://cosmiclog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2006/11/17/15197.aspx#271067</link><pubDate>Sat, 14 Jul 2007 22:37:59 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:271067</guid><dc:creator>Jerry Gifford  Murfreesboro, Tn</dc:creator><description>I wish there was more print given to the Gnostic Gosepls as there is given to the Dead Sea Scrolls.
