What do you think?
Could it really be it?

I was watching The Hour last night (Canadian show) and they were interviewing the guy who made the documentary.
These bones were found about 20 years ago, but were forgotten about, because the people said 'These names are common for that time period.'
However, the man who did the documentary goes against the statistics, for a simple reason.
Take the name of every member in your household. How likely is it, that someone in your city, state or country has the same names in your family? How likely is it, that they're all of the same relation (like Raymond, son of Doug for example)?
Not very.

I'm not sure if I believe it or not, but it does seem interesting.

No comment.

My question is: Why does the media want to disprove the Bible?

Also, do you know how many Jesus's there have been throughout the world? What makes them think that this one is the REAL tomb?

I don't believe a word of it.

Btw, it had Jesus, Judas, Mary, Mary Madgadaline (I don't know how to spell it), Joseph and Jofa.

 

[Captain Brain]

If it had Judas, Mary Magdalene, Joseph, Jofa, then it's fake.

Just curious, why?

I've seen pictures of the tomb and the names they found. They look like they're scratched up a lot. A scratch or something might make it look like Jesus' name or someone else's. It's also impossible to have forensic evidence as they claim to have, since there's nothing to compare the DNA to. I'm with Billy on this one. I honestly don't believe those things are the real deal.

I agree with Billy and Britt.

I saw a show on this.
I'm not sure if I believe it, but I would be really amazing if it was true.

 

[BabyPiglet]

I do not believe that.

Saw it here last Sunday and was amazed. I don't know enough to say whether it is the tomb or not. The writing was in Aramic. Mary Magdalenes name on it was something else. I don't remember how to spell it.

Well, his family has to be buried somewhere, why not there?
There are a lot of things in this world, enough for me to know I don't know everything.

i love how the media lies to sell documentaries and such.

Makes me laugh.

The only way to prove this is Jesus, is if the DNA matches Mary but doesn't match Joseph. This will be very hard to do though, because it seems the only DNA available is the kind that matches mother to child. But if there was ever someway to prove this is Jesus Christ, then the whole Christian Religion will fall apart.
