Hollywood director James Cameron has three coffins he claims were those of Jesus, his mother Mary and his 'wife' Mary Magdalene.
He says he has proof that Jesus married Mary and that she bore him a son, Judah, who was buried alongside them. Hey this would make a great film. That Di Vinci code thing worked out pretty well. The Lost Tomb of Jesus, made for the Discovery Channel, will be shown in the U.S. this week.
Cameron is not denying the resurrection - as there were no bones in the caskets. But the film still strikes at the foundation of Christianity in the same manner as the novel The Da Vinci Code, by Dan Brown, in claiming that Jesus married and had a family.
Meanwhile..... Archaeologists and clergymen derided the claims. One of the caskets bears the title, "Judah, son of Jesus," hinting that Jesus may have had a son. And the very fact that Jesus had an ossuary would contradict the Christian belief that he was resurrected and ascended to heaven. However, it was an ordinary middle-class Jerusalem burial cave. The names on the caskets are the most common names found among Jews at the time.
More 'proof" for non-belivers more garbage for belivers.

Couldn't of said it better myself, just another cheap shot at christianity, I think its so sad.
The Anchoress has it right... its getting close to Easter, so the wackos are coming out to spit on Christianity in a way they wouldn't dare to against other religions. Last year it was the "Gospel of Judas". This year, its the tomb of Jesus... complete with His Body and His "son's". Right. I feel sorry for these losers who hate something they don't understand so much that they simply must find every possible way of tearing it down.
Yeah, the right first names are on the tomb. That is supposed to be proof??? That would be the same as finding a tomb from the early 1800's with the names George and Martha Schmudlap on it and claiming it to be PROOF POSITIVE that George Washington's real last name was Schmudlap.
I agree with Sean, every year Christianity gets attacked because they don't understand or even try to. I feel that we should pray for these people.
