The College Degrees of George Lamsa and Rocce Errico - Spyridon - 10-21-2008
I've been trying to find the websites for the colleges that Errico and Lamsa purportedly attended. Not only am I unable to find their websites, I'm unable to find any evidence their colleges and seminaries existed apart from their own biographies.

Don't mean to be so frank here, Spyridon, but this website really has nothing to do with either individual. My question is who cares? Why does it matter to you?

It would matter if they have fraudulent degrees.

It would matter in what way, specifically? So let's assume for a moment that Errico and Lamsa, and let's throw in Jerome himself too, all had fraudulent degrees. Perhaps from an internet-based "college", or in the case of Jerome let's just assume he was home-schooled.
Why does that matter to us here Peshitta.org, or to you?
It may matter to the official George M. Lamsa or Rocco Errico fan clubs. But we don't have any members here that I am aware of.

What do you personally think regarding their degrees?

Never gave it a fleeting moment of thought before your post.
For that matter, I don't care for Dr. Sebastian Brock's Oxford degree in Syriac, either. I could debate him speaking in Aramaic while he and the audience are flipping through a dictionary, and I don't have a PhD in Aramaic.
The primary materials Dr. Brock is purportedly studying were written by "uneducated" brown people wearing turbans, far far away from his esteemed chair at Oxford. Kinda ironic, huh?

Do you think their degrees were real or not?
