Christ himself said those who turned him over to Pilate had the greater sin. Thus, not all are equally quilty.
ok, so who were those who turned him over to Pilate?
Read the Gospels and find out.
. Are you stating that this was just the Jews who are guilty of Christ's death?
Only the ones immediately involved who participated, approved or yelled for Barabbas.
ok, thank you for that clarification.
My implied question was would a bloody (wet) nail last from the Roman times. I doubt it would.
Now if you want to postulate that the nails were dried and sealed in an airtight, oxygen low environment then yes I am sure they would survive.
There is of course, no evidence to believe that the nails used on Christ were stored in such a way. And Nails surviving has nothing to do with your initial statement that the element survives.
So if you want to have a credible hypothesis can you explain how bloody nails can survive, especially when the pictures show that those particular nails were not dry and stored in a hermetically sealed manner.
Wow, interesting!
Thank you for your post,

Interesting info!
Thanx for your post!
Implied is not the same as stated, I don’t deal with implied. If you want to go down a path were we are assuming that blood at one time covered those nails then sure. Low oxygen or high oxygen doesn’t matter, the blood would presumably dry within hours after being excised from the body, if not with in an hour. Forming a thin film protecting said nails from an oxygen rich environment. I personally do not believe in these being some sort of mystical nails from Christ(I am an agnostic anyways), but either way you seemed damned angry and impertinant, almost like you have some sort of hate for Christianity and religion in general and you wish to not only get in said arguments over it you wish to try and take their sacred cows and destroy them. Frankly you are coming off as a bit of a pathetic old man.
Obviously you don't know how rust works. If that was the case then painting over rust would stop it in its tracks. Your "thin film" would only make thing worse.

You are partially correct, but the sad part is that you fail to see the humor. The idea that anyone could believe that these are the nails that they crucified a Christ with is asinine. The fact that the Christian community isn't bent over in laughter with tears streaming down their faces is very telling.
It kind of reminds me of Muslims rioting and killing people because of a cartoon. We are getting the wrong reactions.
My name, my sins, as well.
