Are christian scholars arguing the validity of this because they are biased to what this could imply, as in they've already made up their mind, or will they approach this with scientific detachment?

For six thousand years religious scholars have been telling "God" what "he" is supposed to be.
When "God" doesn't conform to their ancient myths, they call "him" the devil and spit on "him".
They believe a book of ancient writings, written by ordinary primitive men, more than they believe "God".
Christian scholars aren't interested in the truth. They want "God" and Jesus to be what their books tell them, not what reality tells them.

Every new archaeological discovery comes with arguments between scholars as to what exactly the new findings prove, if anything.
When Bible scholars find something that "proves" a certain part of the Bible is true, that is often met with controversy, also.

Aren't these the same people who put the bones of supposedly Mary Joseph and Jesus out in a courtyard, hauled off all the other ossuaries then returned to find those three stolen? lol it's just too unbelievable to take seriously!
There was also something in the article that I read about it that said they would not have been buried there anyway, because they were Jewish and at that time in history, the area would have been enemy territory to them. Another reason is that Jesus was not buried in a family tomb, but in the tomb of Joseph of Arimathea (sp?).

Wow, how stupid do you sound now? Did you know that four men were arrested in 1980 for claiming the same findings? Did you also know that the people doing that documentary are not archeologists or scientists? Did you also know that Jesus Christ has been the most sought after man in all of history and yet, no living soul has been able to locate his remains. Perhaps if you stopped listening to what everyone else says, you might try to find the facts out for yourself. Do your own research and do an extensive search. You really look like an uneducated idiot. It's a shame too because the truth is there, you just have to look for it. Thank you and stop being so lazy as to rely on what other people claim to find. Get out there and find it for yourself.

I doubt they approach anything with scientific detachment

They'll definitely be complaining about that.
