Archeological Discovery
 

I'm not an archeologist, so I don't know what to make of this.
This could be fascinating.

Another article.

Interesting....

It is interesting...the potential ramifications of course are even more so! Beyond that, I really have no comment.

Somerfrost,
Yes, there are huge potential ramifications.
DNA analysis (mitochondral) of "Jesus" and "Mary" indicate no commonality.
Beyond that, I also have no comment.
I only put the links up to provide information on this fascinating story.

More buzz.

I'm just not getting into this...honest. The interesting quote here is "every Christian knows...". It's easy to attack Hollywood, even science I guess but the danger is obvious...substituting "knows" for "believes" can have dangerous consequences. I don't see how finding physical remains should trouble anyone...unless one views the Bible literally...word for word...then I guess those folks will be defensive....to me it's interesting but certainly nothing that would "prove" or "disprove" any belief system.

Somerfrost,
I also am in agreement that there is a big difference between knowing (science) and believing (faith). As you said, one can be proven, the other can't.
I also find this to be interesting.
