What do u think about the lost tomb of christ.?

Answer 1

Ok, I am a Christian, but I believe they have not found the tomb

of Jesus Christ. If they have, and I am wrong, big deal. We are

here on Earth to learn from him, not dwell in His personal life. I

believe those stories of Mary Magdalene and Jesus in love are all

fake. We are here on Earth to follow Jesus Christ, not try to

guess who He loved or supossedly had sex with.



And also, if the bones of Jesus were really Him, then it would

NOT be the end of Christianity. Jesus was told to be HALF

MORTAL, HALF IMMORTALITY!! He was BORN OF MAN and of

GOD. So it would not destroy the Christian religion.

Geez people, use your minds.

Answer 2

As expected, the documentary angers many Christian believers. Faith and scientific exploration never go hand in hand.

It is ironic...The film attempts to give compelling evidence that Jesus Christ truly existed in the world, but most Christians look upon the discovery with doubt and contempt. It makes you wonder: are the majority of Christians truly believers of Christ, or merely followers of their church's doctrine?

Another point of irony: Religious leaders encourage people to take a critical and objective view towards documentaries like "The Lost Tomb of Christ." However, as soon as someone looks at the church and their practices with a critical eye they quickly condemn that person as "disrespectful," a "blasphemer," or a "heretic." A little hypocritical is it not?

Religious people are really good at practicing 'selective criticism' and 'selective ignorance.'

True, the documentary has many inconsistencies, but not as much as there are in the Bible. At least the filmmaker invites people to investigate and analyze the validity of his hypothesis.

Most church leaders and fundamentalist Christians would rather have you burn at the stake than dare investigate and analyze the validity of the Bible.

In any case, the findings in "The Lost Tomb of Christ" are just the tip of the iceberg. I am eager to get further information regarding this incredible discovery.

Let us hope that the debate, analysis, and scientific exploration on this subject continue for many years to come.

Answer 3

I think it could be part of Jesus's family. However I don't believe that the Jesus in the tomb was Jesus Christ. Its very possible that somewhere in the family was another Joseph who named his son Jesus. It could be that the brother named Joseph (who they say had a nickname of Jose) could have had a son and named him Jesus after his brother who was killed. The Mary that they claim was married to Jesus is a very huge stretch. All they proved is that the two were not blood relatives. That woman could have been married to any of the other men in that tomb and there were several. I don't believe Jesus himself was buried in that tomb. I do believe it could be relatives of his.

Answer 4

I think that although it is a striking coincidence that the coffin would bear the names of Yeshua (which is what Jesus was called before his name was Greek-and-Latinized into Jesus), and his parents Miriam (which is what Mary was called before her name was Greek-and-Latinized) and Joseph, I don't really think that the Chirst was the only child of Israel named after one of the great messiahs of scripture (Joshua), with a mother named after the wife of another great messiah (Miriam was Moses' wife), and raised by a man named after one of thier messianic patriarchs (Joseph).

All three names are so common that it will take a LOT more than just all three names on the same coffin, and the coffin being carbon- or otherwise dated to that era, before I begin to disbelieve what I currently believe about the testimonies of His disciples about his resurrection and ascention.

But, I am eagerly awaiting news of any addition, more-conclusive evidence being shared with us.

Answer 5

I guess anything is possible, but I was not convinced by what I saw tonight. Even if it could be proven, it wouldn't bother me. I don't know anything about Jewish geneology, but I've started to do some research on my Swedish ancestry. I have no idea what my Grand Mother's surname was--I know it was Danielson--but that meant her Dad's name was Daniel, but I don't know what her Dad's last name was. So I really have no idea what family she was a member of.And this is for 1875 and earlier. So it seems like the early cultures had strange ways of handling names and it seems like there was not a wide variety of names used, either. I did like the idea that they had nicknames, though. But whatever . . . .

Answer 6

I think everyone has been looking for an answer to Christianity for so long and this is just another hope for them. It's interesting to say the least but I'm a devout Christian and if Christ really is the Saviour of the world his bones aren't going to be there. Plus it's highly improbable they'd be able to prove it anyway, it's been so long and so many twisted conspiracies and so many people looking for fame. How would you ever know if what a group of people are saying is fact or fiction. Go with what you believe. But it is interesting.

Answer 7

It was an interesting documentary but I think they still have ways to go before it will be believable. There is some pretty good evidence and statistics though. But even if it were proven true it wouldn't change the minds of most christians. The bible says Jesus rose and ascended to heaven therefore that is what they believe.

Answer 8

I think it is absolutely fantastic and it would be the find of well... THE find!!! Proof of Jesus!? How wonderful would that be? And perhaps it would prove a personal theory of mine.

According to history there was 30 years undocumented of Jesus. I believe during that time Jesus "sinned" as man did according to the eyes of God, his Father and this is how He gained so much wisdom as to give to his FAther regarding forgiveness of man etc.....it just would explain so so much is all.

And why wouldn't there be bones of Christ? If indeed his Spirit rose?? Wouldn't this go with our beliefs as well?? He was not extra-terrestrial was he? Only God is a light and the HOly Spirit, Jesus was NOT!

To the person who said that Jesus said "i am alive" he is speaking in Spirit!

If you see thumbs down by this answer, you can be sure it is by Christians all across the land, as well as any others who are into traditional belief of Jesus.

If Jesus was immortal while ON EARTH...how did he suffer while being tortured and thus..suffer for our sins???

Answer 9

It was never lost! Jesus was laid in a borrowed tomb and it has been open to the public for decades.

Answer 10

Besides the fact that there are inconsistencies between what they SAY the names are and what they actually are...

Besides the fact that the names Jesus, Mary, and Joseph were extremely common (like Smith or John)...

Besides the fact that I question anything the Discovery Channel puts out...

Besides the fact that many Bible scholars and archaelogists have already spoken out against this "supposed find"...

The main proof that this is a hoax is that they are saying they've found the remains of Jesus. There are no remains. Jesus is risen.
