I think it's unfortunate this information was known to Christianity for over a year, along with evidence to show it up, yet funding has been so poor. Why the christian community of businesses hasnt contributed to create what is really needed, a factual second half to the program revealing the fallacious theory, makes one wonder. This tomb and its contentspose a challenge which the church needs to be informed on.
Stolen ossuaries, forged inscriptions, weird symbols-something about all this just doesnt settle with me.
The performance of the experts brought on to Koppel's show was suboptimal at best.
By the way Dr Bock, any reason the remaining ossuaries were vacuumed out? Would be nice to see some DNA evidence from them. Not sure why this would have been done with all ossuaries except Jesus and Mary-very inconvenient.
Has anyone done a stats equation for the odds given James and Mary M NOT Jesus brother or Mary Magdalene? In other words, what are the odds of a 12t century Joseph, Jesus, Mary, Jose family. Thanks in advance.
Nice to see you mention the importance of bodily resurrection last night. I further think it looks bad to, as Im seeing some chruch officials do on the internet, decide faith is all that matters and not address this tomb issue. The Catholic priest on last night I sensed had this opinion, however I find retreating merely to faith in light of ossuaries looks bad-our beliefs are based on historical events.
