Has anyone checked out the official site? The site url is (deleted by mod). I really think they've done a good job with using science to support their findings. And the articles are really interesting and informative too. I hope people will give this a chance, it really deserves one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a lot of Jospehs and Marie. Besides it was simple for the enemy of the Christianity, like the gnostics under the inspiration of the devil, in Jesus' time to take three cadavers and to place them in cases to hide and with Jesus, Marie - Madeleine and Juda names while hoping that long time later it would be discovered and that would harm the Christian faith one day, they didn't need to see the future of Christianity to know that such a discovery would harm the Christian on day or an others. Or the news is going to die by itself, or that it's going to grow up slowly in strength and to sow the doubt in the faith of numbers of christians. And a researcher, whose work has focused on the Middle East, biblical anthropologist Joe Zias, has rejected the claims as "dishonest." "It has nothing whatsoever to do with Jesus, he was known as Jesus of Nazareth, not Jesus of Jerusalem, and if the family was wealthy enough to afford a tomb, which they probably weren't, it would have been in Nazareth, not here in Jerusalem," Zias told CBS.

There is none, save the evicence they are gleaning from the bones of poor mis-identified dead people! What a tragic thing that these dead people are part of a hoax.

Here's the set-up. In 1980 a construction crew in the Jerusalem suburb of Talpiot chanced upon a first-century tomb, which are not uncommon in that city. The Israeli Antiquities Authority found 10 bone boxes there, and stored them in a warehouse. Some bore inscribed names: Jesus, son of Joseph; Maria; Mariamene e Mara; Matthew; Judas, son of Jesus; and Jose. Each name with the exception of Mariamene seemed common to their period, and it was only in 1996 that the BBC made a film suggesting that. given the combination, it might be that family. The idea was eventually discounted, however, because, as University of St. Andrews (Scotland) New Testament expert Richard Bauckham asserted in a subsequent book, the names with Biblical resonance are so common that even when you run the probabilities on the group, the odds of it being the famous Jesus's family are "very low." Jacobovici, however, remained fascinated, and announced at the press conference what he had added to the equation : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
