Maybe BOTH sites are the right ones - one was the wedding, and the other the reception...

This is a good story, but I seriously doubt it.

I...see....

The found common stone jars, on a site which could possibly have been Cana, or maybe not.

Why would you even bring Jesus into it?

Alexander believes that with more substantial investment, the site could became a major tourist attraction and pilgrimage destination.

Ah. Say no more.

Wow, thanks for the post! :-)

Although, I've always found it odd that some Christians think that alcohol is evil. It would make this miracle of Jesus appear to be an evil as well. Why would Jesus multiply and freely distribute that which is evil? It would be like Jesus handing out pornography at a bachelor party; the belief doesn't make sense...

Um, if they found the site of his first miracle, wouldn't they have to believe that a miracle was performed, and become Christian?

Gee, and (my entire life), I thought I was the only one that questioned this miracle.

Christians don't all believe alcohol is evil...just drinking to excess.

Jesus had to. His mother requested that he do something for the wedding party problem. He rebuked his mother for his time had not yet come, but to keep the commandment HONOR THY FATHER AND THY MOTHER, he HAD To.....
