I guess i still need more time to be convinced that "contemporary" scholarship, especially that which originated from the German high critics, is just what the church has always missed out on. Until then methinks brother Tomes should invest his valuable research assets on more pertinent topics.

Maybe. But the point is that even if there were new findings that such a harsh a skeptic as yourself would accept, the LCM still wouldn't. They can't, because they already know everything that's knowable. To submit to new findings would be an admission of error, which can't be possible in their rarefied world.
Like the quip goes, I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken.
