READ:
It is true that "Jesus" "Mary" and "Matthew" were common names in that period...BUT the Discovery Channel had a statistics expert on last night, and he concluded the following:
Considering the limestone case read "Jesus son of Joseph", and was buried with another which read "Mary" (his mother), another that said "Matthew" (Mary's kin), and "Jose" (Jesus' brother, whose name was ENTIRELY UNIQUE at that time, such as someone today being named "Machiste" or something)...and considering the use of limestone coffins was only used for a 100 year period which included Jesus' death-date...
...the chance of there being another "Jesus son of Joseph" with mother Mary and brother Jose from the same location at the same time period (less than a century) in a world with a MUCH smaller population than today...would be...impossible. Are there really people still denying this?
