According to the Italian news agency, the announcement is expected to be made at 2 p.m. Italian time (8 a.m. Eastern) from the Hotel Aldrovandi in Rome.

Just thought I'd post this for your review and discussion.

Would love to stick around to read all the comments but I've got to run out and take care of some important business.

The Keeper of the Ark, with the Church of the Ark in the background.

Thought the Ark was stored in some obscure government warehouse.

Right next to the vault full of Democrat Party tax cuts and morals.

I hope FOX doesn’t have Geraldo Rivera cover this story.

...the Ark, which he says has been hidden away in a church in his country for millennia...

Wouldn't be too sure about that, pal...

Sorry to say this appears to be a hoax. There is no mention of the ark or ethopia on the Italian news site , adnkronos

I believe WND screwed up here...I read the original ADNkronos article, and this press conference apparently happened LAST Friday and the Patriarch seems to have backtracked on the whole revealing the Ark thing.

I've seen a snip of the newsreel footage, showing the Ethiopian artifact being moved from the old shrine to the new one (the one now used to house the purported Ark of the Covenant). It was of course carefully shrouded in cloth, which allowed only a hint of the overall size, and suggested a rectangular shape. Anyway...

They obviously did not show the Ark for all to see.

Seems like there is some kind of dispute about showing it to the world ...
