That is true, but they still want proof. Physical proof doesnt have to mean part of his body. Maybe a lost hair, or maybe some clothes, writing, etc... How bout a personal miricle?
Idk, i still believe. Some people just want proof though. But the true believer have faith.

Excuse me, just because you say that some person ascended to heaven, makes it no more or no less true than what it actually is. Just because a politically motivated book for that time period ascribes this--does not make it true or untrue. Finding the bones would make it untrue-not finding the bones--would not answer the question either way. Therefore if the bones were found--this would be concrete proof and religion would have to change--searching for truth is not ignorance--sticking your head in the sand and pretending what you think or believe is the truth--now that is ignorance. The truth is the truth--whether we like it or not.

Thank you for this question. How convenient? I guess they show their ignorance of Christian belief because it has been the teaching of the Church SINCE THERE WAS the Church that Jesus ascended to heaven soul AND BODY. So then (math wizards) 2 + 2 = 4: soul + body going to heaven means (I'll spell it out) there... ain't... no.... body... to... be... found.... on... earth.
But wait... i get it. Jesus is only a myth, so NATURALLY He ascended to heaven body and soul thereby by eliminating all possible way of disproving His resurrection.
Well, so I guess the thousands of Christian martyrs died for a myth? They gave their lives for something they KNEW was a lie?
Please.

Surely you must realize that not everyone believes the legend in the Bible about Jesus ascending into heaven. The interest in the bones is by sane people who are simply trying to determine whether Jesus actually existed at all, or is instead pure myth.

I don't "know" that Jesus of Nazareth ascended to some "heaven". I seriously doubt that we will find his bones for certain, but that doesn't prove that he was ever raised from the dead. I'm quite certain that he is still dead.

The question is, "Is Jesus really who he said He was?" Sure, His bones will not be found because of the resurrection. This can be established historically. Read some books by Josh McDowell.

Indeed. If it's all "allegory", no bones about it.
But there's contracdictions about ascentions.
Perhaps we need to sort out who ascended,
from where, and where they ascended to.
Jesus seems to ascend to on high.
Christ seems to ascend to higher.
E-life is "through Jesus --> Christ".
Reconcilation is thru J-->C to God.
Reconciled is via not imputing sin.
For imputed sin results in death,
and death results in dead bones.
Grace --> Mercy --> Peace with you all. Amen.

Maybe his spirit ascended to heaven and his body is still here. Have you ever met him? Or seen him? Then how can you say he even exist?

All the people who have supposedly ascended to Heaven, have left their bones behind. You have clearly illustrated how ignorant certain Christians are!
Please study objective (physical) reality.

If you believe that Jesus actually ascended to Heaven, then you're the ignorant...

People like that don't WANT to know the truth, and don't care about proof.
Lack of proof isn't a weakness. On the contrary, claiming infallibility for one's conclusion that God does not exist is a sign of hubris. Nothing in the real world has ever been rigorously proved, or ever will be. Proof, in the mathematical sense, is possible only if you have the luxury of defining the universe you're operating in. In the real world, we must deal with levels of certainty based on observed evidence. The more and better evidence we have for something, the more certainty we assign to it; when there is enough evidence, we label the something a fact, even though it still isn't 100% certain.
If enough people have personally experienced a relationship with someone called 'President Bush', that does indeed constitute real evidence for his existence. If enough people have personally experienced a relationship with someone called 'God', that does indeed constitute real evidence for His existence as well. If a Book includes prophecies which come to pass, and did so in front of witnesses who had nothing to do with the one who made the prophecy, that also constitutes real evidence for His existence. If the universe itself allows for books to successfully predict the future using 'Bible Code' type encoding and decoding techniques, this indicates a universe which includes intentionally planted information, and so also constitutes real evidence for His existence. If the universe itself had a beginning, it NEEDS a Prime Mover, whether that consists of colliding branes (which came from where?) or the powerful Word of an Eternal Being. This in itself constitutes real evidence that we MUST eventually acknowledge, that God does indeed exist. And no amount of protest can change these facts.
