The film starts by claiming the Apostles stole and hid the body of Christ and then just invented a Resurrection story. But then why would anyone who cares about either Jesus or the Apostles or Christianity want to be buried alongside his named unresurrected bones in a vast family tomb that therefore scandalizes his friends and his Gospels as well as him? Only Nero or someone else who hated Christianity would have done this .. unless it was just a family who liked Jesus and so named all members like the family of Jesus.

Forgetting the fact that the only DNA these filmmakers cared to test was also aiming only at scandal, since it could imply a marriage between Magdalene and Jesus by showing no maternal relationship... and they only made the film after that scandal path was cleared, and also discounting how they do not tell people that their favorite "Acts of Phillip" apocrypha is a fourth century text that puts a Greek spin on the name of Magdalene or how they misquote even their own scientific consultants in the film, the really big deal here is that the Resurrection of Jesus - the totally empty original tomb and physically meeting Magdalene (who reaches for him saying "Rabbi!", not "Husband!" or "Lover!") was therefore clearly a physical, not just a spiritual, vastly important event in the Gospels.

But even one has no faith at all and can believe the Resurrection was just a lie invented by the Apostles, surely no one can imagine anyone who loved Jesus wanting to later be buried with him in a way that proves the lie and undermines the Christianity being preached everywhere.

It makes no sense, family would not do that if they could have; but the salesmen are so deceptive that for 25 years no one has said this yet.

I say they are too deceptive AND stupid ... and more offensive than cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed. Will you denounce it please?

amy, if you are intellectually honest you should demand that the moderators of these forums who censor out threads requesting your input you should demand they be put back so that the idea flow makes some semblance of logical to and fro. I answered dolliee and raised an a few additional queries to you at the same time but you are now a victim of censorship. Is that big bro or antichrist in action?

Your post misrepresents the film. The reason no other DNA was tested was explained -- there weren't sufficient bone fragments in the other ossuaries. Stop saying it was a "decision" made.

Second, people always want to be buried with their loved ones. They didn't know there would be a scandal 2,000 years later! Why on earth would they care about that? Their beloved has died and they want to be with them. When you go to your grave, will you be worried that in 2,000 years, someone will be scandalized by whom you're buried with?

Amy, posters of these threads react as though you don't exist, even though you are the person these queries should be addressed to, well maybe there is some hope for what resembles edjikayshun in this country.

Apparently archaeophile assumes what is shown on TV has to be gospel truth or whatever gnostics use for that expression. I assume yer gonna inform folk who address the DNA angle that you ain't zakly a DNA scholar, so anything you remark on is merely your guess.

I guess archaeophile lacks the intellectual probity to consider other viable alternatives as to how those particularly named ossuaries got into that particular tomb, namely a prankster is pulling off a hoax, Anybody can rummage thru innumerable tombs in Jerusalem and pluck out requisite named ossuaries with some bones in them and dump them into a spiffy tomb awaiting a 'discovery' ala hollywood hype. I foresee in a not too distant future these bones end up for auction on E-Bay, 'cuz the intrinsic value of these bones ain't that much.

Dolliee sees Cameron's dog and pony show for what it is, a cheapshot exploitation of Jesus' persona. Dolliee, like me, see this crass commercialization of treating the persona of Jesus like a commodity as blasphemy. These are some of the reasons why Dolliee expects you with your expertise in this arena with intellectual integrity to denounce this attack on 1st Commandment injunctions that denigrate the Godhead of Jesus.

I find this accusation against the Apostles, typical of the slant gnostics take on denigrating the veracity of Godhead of Jesus. It seems these gnostics forget one salient point, they have to face Jesus for Judgement and be held accountable for every thought, word, act they did for every second they lived, gmostics have no guarantee of immunity from this Judgement. We are on the planet for our allotted time, it seems only logical we make use of that time to venerate Jesus not vilify Him.

Since all this hype has its ramifications in Israel, Rabbinate there are concerned about the trickle down effect it has on movements like Jews for Jesus. There is a homegrown Messianic fervor in Israel that will now be encouraged to be more vociferous, They want a 3rd Temple. I seriously doubt Cameron and his backers ever considered how this hype will efect the status quo in Israel. The longer nobody with intellectual clout waits to denounce Cameron's fraud, the only winner of this is antichrist, who's waiting in the wings for his cue to come on stage.

Posted 03-07-07 12:01 PM How To Put The Two Archeo-Trash "Jesus Tomb" Stupid Filmmakers OUT OF BUSINESS With Just An Ayn Rand As Our Lady The Wiz Doll And 1/2 The Copyright, Freely Used As Lawful Fair Comment, Of "MacArthur Park"

First, let me introduce everyone to my Ayn Rand as Our Lady The Wiz doll... which I acquired in 1981 while engaged in active communication with the real Ayn Rand regarding fair use of rock songs to stone people like Nathaniel Branden. Ayn who was then living in Manhattan, while I was living in Riverdale, in New York.

During this time I once encountered someone selling dolls that purported to be The Virgin Mary but which had a neckline dress that, while still modest, looked a little too low cut for someone as important to Scripure as the Virgin Mary. Since the dolls therefore looked more like Dagny Taggart dolls to me, I bought one and called it, "Ayn Rand as Our Lady The Wiz", solely to defend the real Virgin Mary the only way I knew how.

Well, ever since that day and for over 25 years thereafter so far, Ayn and I have clobbered and eliminated SO MANY deceptive frauds together that this "new" one is hardly news at all.

Now, before those two stupid filmmakers cause a famine with their deceptive and as I already proved no-can-be MacArthur park food fair, we will here eliminate all their potential profits by proving that anyone who even gets a flu after watching their film should sue them for reckless endangerment:

" MacArthur park is melting in the dark

All the sweet green icing flowing down.

Someone left the cake out in the "Reign".

I don't think that I can take it because it took so long to bake it.

And I'll never have that recipe again.

I recall the yellow cotton dress

Foaming like a wave on the 'ground' beneath your knees.

Birds like tender babies in your hands

And the old men playing "Chinese Checkers" by The Tree.

MacArthur park is melting in the dark

All the sweet green icing flowing down.

Someone left MY cake out in the "Reign".

I don't think that I can take it because it took so long to bake it

And I'll never have that recipe again.
