"France, dark cave....whta's the difference?"

One is a place immersed in darkness, a dead end, void of any positive stimuli. The other is a hole in the ground.

Another attack on Christianity by the King of Lies.
Move on, folks, nothing to see here.

I'd rather hear them talk about the presence of coffins themselves. My understanding of Jewish burial customs of the time is that coffins weren't used; certainly not in a "cave" type of interment.

This claim has more holes than Cincinnati's interstates.

Jesus' son???
Coffins?
Mary Magdalene?

So, the Jewish and Christian people sat idly by while incredible claims were being made about folks who were living right there in their midst?

The stupidity of the whole argument is beyond comment.

About 200 people have already written this novel. The chances of finding a given common Jew from 2000 years ago is too small to measure.

But maybe this will shake the trees in the Christian world.

Jesua son of Joseph, Mary, Mary, Matthew, Jofa (Joseph, identified as Jesus’ brother), Judah son of Jesua

As though the names Joshua, Joseph, Judah, and Miriam were anything but common in the Middle East? Those are all OT patriarchal names - sort of like John, Joe, or Jim today.

Luke 21

7"Teacher," they asked, "when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are about to take place?"

8He replied: "Watch out that you are not deceived. For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am he,' and, 'The time is near.' Do not follow them. 9When you hear of wars and revolutions, do not be frightened. These things must happen first, but the end will not come right away."

...the discovery of a 2,000 year old cave...

Are they implying that the cave appeared two thousand years ago? Someone dug it then? Someone started using it then?

Yeah. I always thought that Jesus was wrapped in a shroud before placed in the tomb. (Shroud of Turin)

Just a question. Has the snow/ice started to recede from Mt. Ararat? I hear that Mt. Kilimanjaro, Fuji and a whole host of other peaks are going to be bare in the near future; I was wondering if we will finally be able to Noah’s ark without the ice problems.

Ten "coffins?" Carved mahogony? Just joking. LOL

Jesus' family wasn't wealthy. How did they afford such an elaborate set up with engravings, etc?

Oh, I'd like to see them try to prove that. I really would.
