Cameron is pandering to the public and his "find" will be proven to be just bad science:

- The statistical analysis is not rigorous

- The name "Jesus" was a popular name at that time, appearing in 98 other tombs and on 21 other ossuaries

- There is no historical evidence that Jesus was ever married or had a child

- The earliest followers of Jesus never called him, "Jesus, son of Joseph"

- It's unlikely Joseph, who had died earlier in Galilee, would have been buried in Jerusalem

- The Talipot tomb and ossuaries probably would have belonged to a rich family, which is not a historical match for Jesus

- Fourth-century church historian Eusebius makes quite clear the body of James, brother of Jesus, was buried alone near the temple mount.

- The two Mary ossuaries do not mention anyone from Migdal, but just Mary, a common name

- By all ancient accounts, the tomb of Jesus was empty, making it unlikely that any body was moved, allowed to decay for a year, then be put into an ossuary.

- Amos Kloner, the first archaeologist to examine the site, said the conclusions cannot be supported by the evidence – but it's a way to make money on television. He would have nothing to do with supporting the movie's assertions. "It's nonsense," he said.

- James, the half-brother of Jesus and author of the book of James, the early leader of the church in Jerusalem, was martyred for his faith. Why does James make no mention in his letter that Jesus was not bodily resurrected? When he was about to die why didn't he just recant his beliefs and say, 'Okay, okay! My brother didn't rise from the dead. Here's where we took him. Here's where his bones are. Here's our family tomb. We made the whole thing up?' People will generally not die for a lie when they know it's a lie. Why would James die perpetuating a lie when it would have been so easy to disprove? In fact why would any of the apostles go to their deaths for something they knew to be false?

As I have expected, there has been **no scientific or historical find** that has ever been shown to disprove the authenticity of the bible's history or theology.

In a word, no.

He was laid in a borrowed tomb and rose the third day. So I would assume the owner of the tomb used it when he needed it.

There was something a couple of years ago. If I remember, they found a stone container used for burying bones that said, James, brother of Jesus.

They found a grave, yes an old one but just a grave none the less. The grave itself, the names, and a bone box is not empirical proof.

Actually, he may have found Jesus grave ---- but not Jesus , the Messiah. There are and were numerous men named Jesus.

The name Jesus is spose to mean "God or Je-hovah is salvation" so , it wouldn't be odd for another Hebrew or Jewish male to be named so.

I believe it. I also believe Jesus existed but he was just a flesh and blood man who inspired many. Not the son of god and blah blah blah....

they may have found a tomb of someone named Jesus, but it wasn't Jesus Christ. It doesn't affect my faith one iota.
