Documentaries aren't what they used to be - e.g "Fahrenheit 911, "Inconvenient Truth", and most recently, "Who Killed the Electric Car?". Theaters really should sell grape Kool-Aid...

If this gets on TV it has to be true , just like global warming .

The documentary is going to be airing on The Discovery Channel on March 4th. He claims to have DNA evidence to corroborates his claims and one of the tombs was actually marked "Judah, son of Jesus." I would like to watch the documentary to establish my own opinion, but these are claims that contradict a cornerstone belief in religion that Jesus resurrected from the dead and ascended into heaven on the third day.

I have an easier time believing in the Ressurection than I do believing that Cameron can some how identify Jesus' DNA.
tennesseeboy Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 I have an easier time believing in the Ressurection than I do believing that Cameron can some how identify Jesus' DNA. Is Jesus' Dad gonna give a sample? Who is going to heaven on THAT assignment? I think the Jesus thing might even compete with Anna Nicole.
Beerball Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 I have an easier time believing in the Ressurection than I do believing that Cameron can some how identify Jesus' DNA. Not to mention that if He was on his way to heaven he wouldn't have much need for bones and such. I understand supernatural abilities and all, but why bother bringing all the baggage with you to heaven?

I believe He ascended into heaven 40 days after Easter!
Benjamin Franklin Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 Link He made a documentary on these findings and he claims that Jesus Christ never resurrected from the dead. For this claim, he is under major scrutiny. I just came back from his press conference at the NY Public Library here is Manhattan. It's about time someone laid out some cold hard facts showing how the resurrection couldn't have happened. Time for all the JC believers to engage in deep introspection or say that DNA evidence is faked. Sorry Christians, this isn't the OJ trial--Cameron is not the bungling LAPD. Be fun to see the reaction on this board.
stuckincincy Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 you can collect Gods DNA off the top of my head . He has been holding me down a long time . Not...wine?
dib Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 He claims to have DNA evidence What is he going to relate the DNA evidence to?
RayFinkle Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 So now that he has debunked Christianity, do you think he'll finally make True Lies 2?
Stl Bills Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 He claims to have DNA evidence What is he going to relate the DNA evidence to? Thats an easy one, Catholics give out the "body" and "blood" of christ every Sunday. So if the body in the tomb has the same DNA as gross red wine....bingo!
Dwight Drane Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 He claims to have DNA evidence What is he going to relate the DNA evidence to? He went over to Foxboro and swabbed #54
dib Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 He went over to Foxboro and swabbed #54 Damn, and all this time I've been lighting candles to Brady
Fan in San Diego Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 He claims to have DNA evidence What is he going to relate the DNA evidence to? Has Mary's lineage been traced ? It would have made sense to keep track of her lineage. Wouldn't it ? That's the only way I can think of ? I dont remember any claims to have possesion of Jesus's blood preserved somewhere.
UConn James Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 It's about time someone laid out some cold hard facts showing how the resurrection couldn't have happened. It's time for a lot of people to realize that the Bible is filled with allegory, and was never meant to be wholly taken as literal truth. Perhaps 'rose from the dead' meant that his message was picked up and carried on (kind of how Walt Whitman wrote in "Leaves of Grass" that anyone who touches that book, touches him) by his followers. Or perhaps that he 'rose from the dead' by his lineage continuing by offspring (as Shakespeare's sonnet 18 makes note that we live on through them), as claimed to be found. It's like in 24, we've never seen Jack Bauer on the toilet. Lots of things are left out when you tell a story about someone. Did Jesus shake after he peed and wipe after he pooped or did an angel come down from heaven with a roll of Bounty? He was a minister who preached that we need to be the change we want to see. He angered the wrong people. After he was killed, he was deified and the entire control of his message went into a lot of different hands, over a lot of generations, each with their own agenda. Why is it so hard for Christians to accept the possibility that Jesus was just a man with a world-changing message? The rub comes that church leaders wanted something that couldn't be explained, so it couldn't be questioned.

To me it's all about the message. And just as an aside, you guys are aware that most historians think this is a load of hooey, right?
