A pantload of hand-wringing by someone who feels his authority is threatened.
As long as amateurs can dig up old stuff, professional old stuff digger-uppers will have to deal with it.
I thought the same thing. You expressed my thoughts quite nicely.

For ex: I've read Jacobovici's "Tomb of Jesus", saw the show, and watched his TV interview with the dunderhead George Wills and 3 'experts' who weren't so much interested in what Jacobovici had to say as they were incensed that anyone other then they - the experts - were allowed to say anything.
There's another book that I set beside "Tomb": "James, the Brother of Jesus" - very informing for anyone who is honest enough to follow the facts of who James really was (and as it is even spelled out , (but glossed over by the churches) - in the New Testament. It is, however, another real inconvenient truth to the powers that be...and I suspicion there will be many more to come what with total access to the Internet. Information can no longer be kept in a lock box.
the Lost Tomb of Jesus is also available in DVD
You might try brain surgery. That makes a good hobby too.
