But anyways, the OP was quite clear on the question, I already know the answer...
Sure, if the scientist is in on it.

Let me put this another way...
A person transcribes all of the testimony in a court case.
If one witness lies, does that make the transcription fallible?
What you fail to completely understand is that neither the German scientist's book nor the transcript have ever been claimed to be infallible. Your bible does. Which means both that nobody lied and everything was transcribed correctly.

Y'all say and do the same things. Get out of your box and learn what it means to be free > Me
Freethinking does not mean that our thinking is free from reason and logic, but free from dogma. It is because it is bound by the "box" of rationality that we all come to the same conclusions. And that is one box we prefer to remain in.

Since it contains a lie it is no longer completely true, therefore fallible.
So all court records are false.... I got it...
Do you understand the distinction between fallible and false?
