"The Lost Tomb of Christ"
Talking Points and Links
A Few Talking Points
An Interesting
Thought
"Simply finding a tomb with the name “Jesus”(or
Yeshua) and assuming this must be the Jesus of the New Testament would be like
finding a grave today marked “John” and assuming you had discovered the true
grave of President John F. Kennedy. I have seen Jesus Alou, baseball player for
the Oakland Athletics, play on T.V. but I didn’t assume that because his name
was spelled like the Jesus of the Bible that Jesus had returned to earth and
joined the American League. "

Rev. Donald Wildmon and his American
Family Association have called for a boycott of the channel and its advertisers.

Recreations and Illustrations
The documentary includes dramatic
recreations, based on the latest historical evidence, illustrating accurate
images of Jesus of Nazareth, his family, his followers, his ministry, his
crucifixion and his entombment.
An Anomalous Discovery

documentable and scientific, it would have already been documented. Historians
would know about it,” said Pam Ford, chairwoman of the world studies department
at Mt. San Jacinto College and an anthropologist and archaeologist at the
Western Center for Archaeology & Paleontology.
Not a New display

Antiquities Authority said one of the Mary ossuaries has been on display for
