Correction: As it appears to be impossible to edit postings once they are up on the site, I need to point out that I did not mean to imply that Robert Cargill, the student who received Spielberg's money, is himself currently affiliated with the Churches of Christ (although he may be). What I meant to say is that Pepperdine University, where Mr. Cargill received his ministerial degree, is affiliated with the Churches of Christ. I know nothing of Mr. Cargill's current affiliations, apart from his association with a professor who serves as an advisor to the "University of the Holy Land" and his desire to defend what has been called a "bizarre, Christologically colored thesis" in the face of mounting contrary evidence put forward by Jewish and Israeli specialists.
