For the record, I think that Jesus' message of forgiveness and salvation through God is more of a cornerstone of Christian faith than whether he was physically ressurected or not. Even so, this is very weird.

I Corinthians 15:3For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: 5 And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: 6 After that, he was seen of above five hundred brothers at once; of whom the greater part remain to this present, but some are fallen asleep

Shhhhhh! can you keep a secret

There was already a movie done about this. I cannot remember the title, it was an Israeli-Italian movie where a tomb was found and they found a body in it.

And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith. -- 1 Corinthians 15:14

"You do know that Joseph, Jesus, and Mary were extremely common names at that time. It wouldn't mean a whole lot finding families with those names, anyway."

Indeed they were. This is just another non-event that won't change the minds of any believer, and will soon be forgotten by even the non-believer.

There is a big masonic push to claim our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus succombed to sexual desire, having illegitimate children with Mary Magdalene, now apparantly wasn't resurrected, let alone ascended, but on the other hand are also pushing to advocate Islam.

Cite?

There is a reason that there is little evidence of Jesus outside of the Bible. If there were overwhelming evidence, what good would our faith be?

>> Producer Cameron and his director, Simcha Jacobovici, make the starting claim that Jesus wasn't resurrected
 

Ring...  Ring... Ring... 

JC:  Hello.
LAB: Hello, is this Mr. Cameron?
JC:  Yes, this is he.
LAB: Mr. Cameron, we're terribly sorry. Do you recall 
     the lab report we sent you regarding the DNA sample?
JC:  Yes.
LAB: Well, as it turns out, we had a clerical error in
     the lab and we inadvertently gave your the results
     from a family in a neighboring village.

CD:  "Near, Far, where ever you are I believe that the heart
     does go on...."

JC:  My God, what have I done ?!!!

CD:  "You are safe in my heart, and my heart will go on..."

And he probably thinks he's the first person ever to have come up with this brilliant explanation! What a maroon.

Attacking Christianity is easy no one will kill you and burn your houses down.

If this man and his pitifully partner had any real stones let them raise doubt that Muhammed didn't ascend directly to Heaven.

This would take real guts in that part of the world they could loose their lives and and the lives of their families.

But like I said it does not take any stones to attack Christ.
