The Lost Tomb of Jesus
« on: March 27, 2007, 02:25:36 PM »
Religious leaders were skeptical, if not outraged, about claims that the “Jesus Family” tomb proves there was no resurrection, or that Jesus had a son, with or without Mary Magdalene.  

But I read that the new artifact that was found in the tomb, a bracelet made from the congealed and hardened sap of a rubber tree, found in relation to a radius and ulna, has engraved in the Aramaic  "what would I do?" proves for once and for all, it is the tomb of Jesus.  has anyone been able to confirm this?

I saw the documentary...It was 600:1 odds that it was the Jesus family crypt until they deciphered Joseph's unique spelling on his bone box.

The odds of being wrong then went up to 60,000:1.

A minister was completing a Temperance sermon.
 With great emphasis he said, "If I Had all the beer in the world,
 I'd take it and pour it into the river."
 With even greater emphasis he said, "And if I had All the wine in
 the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river."
 And then finally, shaking his fist in the air, he Said, "And if I
 had all
 the whiskey in the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river."
 
 Sermon complete, he sat down.
 
 The song leader stood very cautiously and announced with a smile,
 nearly  laughing, "For our closing song, Let us sing Hymn #365, "Shall We Gather
  at the River."

I heard a man once tell (can't remember his name) why he believed Jesus Christ did in fact rise from the dead. I'm paraphrasing but He said that people will lie about almost anything but they won't give up their lives for a lie. Almost all of Jesus' disciples died for their faith. That faith was based on a risen Jesus who they claimed to have seen first hand. Would you give up your life for a religion you knew to be false?

This one's my favorite:

Every day for a few years, an almost old man (not quite there yet) would come into the church at 10 in the morning, and sit down in the second row of pews from the front.  He would be looking down for about 10 minutes.  Then he would get on his knees and pray out loud, "Dear lord, I would really like to win the lottery.  It would help my family so much, and it would be so great to not have to work every day of my life until I die."

He would then get up, and leave.

The next day the same thing happened.  The oldish man came in, sat down quietly for a while, and then prayed out loud, "Dear lord, I would really like to win the lottery.  It would help my family so much, and it would be so great to not have to work every day of my life until I die."  He then got up and left.

Again, the oldish man came in and repeated the same process.  He prayed, "Dear lord, I would really like to win the lottery.  It would help my family so much, and it would be so great to not have to work every day of my life until I die."

A huge BOOMING voice comes out of the rafters, "I have been trying, my son."

The oldish man replies, "You have?"

The huge booming voice replies, "I have been trying my son.  But first you must buy a ticket."

Do you guys really want to discuss it, or is this just a place to take a shot? Curious.

I love to discuss religion, but I wouldn't want to waste your or my time.

my lame joke alludes to my skepticism of the "evidence" supporting the claim that the tomb was actually THE Jesus' tomb, and the 600 to 1 "odds" that somebody concocted to describe the probability of it being the actual tomb of Jesus of Nazareth.  sounds gimmicky to me.  

anyway, my belief in God, in Jesus, doesn't depend on a literal interpretation of the bible.  but I am interested in the archeological sense, whether it is the real thing or not.
