I was delighted by the October issue, especially the article by Babette Francis on atheism (page 10). Richard Dawkins certainly hasn't read Dead Men's Secrets by Jonathan Gray, an independent Christian archaeologist who provides scientific evidence in support of the Bible. This book can be obtained from PO Box 3370, Rundle Mall, Grenfell Street, Adelaide, SA 5000, or www.surprisingdiscoveries.com

Further Bible-vindicating discoveries were made by another archaeologist, the late Ron Wyatt. His books and a video are available from www.wyattmuseum.com or via Richard Rives, 2502 Lynnville Hwy, Cornersville, TN, USA 37047, archeology@united.net
