The Jesus Family Tomb, aka the Lost Tomb of Jesus
Posted by Darren under Apologetics , Bible , Christians , Faith , God , Jesus , Lost Tomb of Jesus , Movies , SkepticsI can see that this ridiculousness is probably going to be fairly big. Already the old Da Vinci Code Blog was spammed by someone advertising the official website. (Posting twice from the same IP within minutes under different names.)
So I made up a page explaining some of the many problems with the James Cameron documentary "The Lost Tomb of Jesus", aka "Jesus Family Tomb". It contains links to several other pertinent resources on this topic. Click below to read it:
Feel free to pass the link around, copy it to your own site, hang it on your fridge, whatever. 
I'll work on it some more later when I have more time; this is a "preliminary" version. We already went through this once with the lamentable Da Vinci Code, and now it's started all over again …

Edited by WhyFaith.com admin: Dr Bernstein, I've previously asked you to stop spamming the comments on my blog:
http://www.whyfaith.com/2009/02/02/in-brief-the-argument-from-morality/
And responded to you the first time you posted the information that I've cut from your comment here:
http://www.whyfaith.com/2008/01/24/jesus-tomb-case-closed/
I ask again to please stop cut'n'pasting the same information into the comments on my blog. It's at very least bad etiquette, and at worst merely spam. Thank you.

What i understand in the new testament, Jesus died and rose again on the third day, According to the bible, jesus died friday afternoon ( 3pm ?) then early sunday Jesus rose again, the way i analyzed it, it is less than 60hrs. that the body of Jesus laid inside the tomb, leaving a very limited amount of evidence, plus the fact that after vacating the tomb, it was re use again as burial ground by other dead person.
