Have the bones of Jesus been found?

On March 4th a documentary will air on the Discovery Channel discussing the 1980 find of the remains of Jesus and family.

1 - How would discovering the bones of Jesus change the belief that Jesus’ body rose to heaven on the third day?

2 - If DNA evidence could be retrieved from Mary, Jesus and Joseph - could it show that Jesus was their son?

3 - Who else is in that tomb with them? Mary Magdelan? Would we find some children? Would we be able to track there DNA to current descendants?

4 - If the science of this proves likely, what might be the impact on Christianity going forward? Would it force a re-thinking of the bible and a reorganization of church teachings?

Re: Have the bones of Jesus been found?

Larry, I think we have all been watching this with some interest. Does look as though the science is lacking and the opinion of scholars, about how this has been done and the false impressions that have been given along with the intentional hype, is rather withering.

Still as it’s from Cameron it’s sure to make for interesting viewing…
