The worlds leading archaeologists, geologists and religious historians have determined that the James ossuary is indeed hard proof of Jesus' existence.The Box which has the inscription:James the son of Joseph brother of Jesus.Jesus of Nazareth is proven historically!

Here is a link, www.cnn.com/2003/TECH/sci...index.htmlAnd an excerpt from that link.Quote:Officials with Israel's Antiques Authority announced Wednesday that while the box may date from the correct era, the inscription is a forgery added at a much later date. "The inscription appears new, written in modernity by someone attempting to reproduce ancient written characters," the officials said in the statement. They said that a panel of archeological experts had agreed unanimously with the findings. Later Edited by: Frank 013 at: 11/4/06 9:38 pm

Dude that is OLD news, it was confirmed as a fake.

Asana, even if the box is authentic what do you suppose that proves?It proves that the names Jesus and James were in use during that time period, that's it.A name on a box gives no credit to any person's heritage, deeds or divinity. So to say a man named Jesus actually existed proves nothing about the stories in the New Testament. It's the equivalent to finding the name Goldie Locks on a box and then, without any contributing evidence, deducing that the 3 bear fairy tale is totally true.

The date of the video I saw is later than that article, I'll have to do a little research because on the video they showed people doubting it and so they ran more tests and at the end after going back and forth they said it was real again.?

Ok, you go dig that up we will wait here for you.Later

Asana, if you really believe what the gospels say regarding Jesus, haven't you ever wondered why you've never raised someone from the dead? Or why your family still gets sick and are not healed by you simply placing your hands on them? Where are YOUR miracles? Remember your Jesus-god states that if you really believe you will will be able to do all the works that he did, and MORE. When was the last time you restored sight to a blind person? Turned water into wine? Walked on water? Just curious. You might want to work on this stuff before you try to convert people into believing what the bible says.

Federika22You make a good point but you know that Asana is just going to pull the metaphor card again, or worse claim that he has done those things. Later

Don't worry, I don't have my heart set on his understanding!! Just bored and making conversation!

Your comments are always welcome.Later
