His Hebrew name was actually Yeshua or Yehoshua.

Judah Son of Jesus is really a code word that Geraldo can decipher!

I was a crypto custodian and analyst! My first take is these materials are the remains of none other than James Hoffa which were moved from their resting place at the 5 yard line in Giants stadium in the Meadowlands!

His intent is to niche sell to the same wacko crowd that buys moore's european america bashing books, algore's communist envirowako fairy tail, and that Denis Kucinich is running for president because he has a chance and not just for the federal matching funds.

Why would the power brokers of hollywood be so antichristian?

They attack before was that Christ did not exist.

Then the attack is trying to give gravitas to already proven forgery gospels.

If there is this much money in documentaries based on forgeries, IMAGINE what the money will be for the Arkansas to NYC Clintonista bully squad story.

I think Cameron is out to make money, nothing more, nothing less. Don't care what they say about me, as long as they spell my name right.

A lot of people will tune in to watch it, if only to be outraged and/or offended by it.

Bingo! "Jesus" is the Greek form of the name "Joshua."

Hey, maybe James Cameron has heard about this Joshua fellow, and he can research whether there's a guy named "Joshua" mentioned in the Old Testament! (Have an assistant read the thing, perhaps.) If there is a "Joshua" in the Jewish Torah, and if the guy did anything important like, say, stop the sun in the sky by raising his arms, then gee whiz, it's possible that two thousand years ago there might have been at least a couple of Joshuas running around Jerusalem, no? Jesus/Yeshua/Joshua of Nazareth, and I don't know, maybe at least one other?

And if Cameron wants to research even further, he might find even today that there is one, or two, or maybe three thousand Jewish guys named Joshua, right here in New York!

I think Cameron might be able to solve the mystery of the "Joshua" gravesite, if he finds out that Jesus/Joshua was actually a common name for Jewish men in Jerusalem about 2,000 years ago. But what do I know; I'm not a big important Hollywood director out to debunk the "opiate of the masses."

/sarcasm off/

What rot, as usual.

I don't buy that this is the tomb of Jesus, but then I don't think Jesus actually existed.

This thing has "scam" written all over it.

If you don't believe that Jesus existed, than what is your interest in this topic at all?

I don't think Gandalph the Gray existed either, but I still like discussing the Lord of the Rings.
