So, You are saying based upon scholarship you have investigated yourself you are confident in your findings. Ton or tome of free time? You have not provided a sintile of evidence otherwise. PROVE IT (why do you believe that Google is the end al'be all? I did not think this would have been so fast/so quick). A Brainwashatarian Google drone.
Collect yourself, good man.
Your desperation is showing.
In both the film and book, a series of experts on archaeology, epigraphy, ancient names, DNA, statistics, and esoteric texts are interviewed. They are not told about the overarching thesis, but each is asked about a single component of the puzzle, which the producers skillfully edit into a compelling story. Confidentiality agreements must be signed for the sake of secrecy, jettisoning peer review, the gold standard of academic integrity. Only the principals involved had the whole picture, and scholars are made marionette-like to play their parts. But last week, after a press conference announced the "discovery," those scholars began to come forward, one by one, questioning or even repudiating the way their words or intentions had been manipulated.
Almost to a person, my colleagues in archaeology and biblical scholarship are condemning the thesis as fraudulent. Why? The case is simply not compelling, And in spite of The Lost Tomb of Jesus's insistence that the secret was buried and forgotten in the Israel Antiquity's Authority's storage facilities since 1980, just like Indiana Jones' ark, this is patently not true. Many scholars, including myself, had written about those names on the ossuaries years ago and concluded that that the discovery was indeed very important evidence about Jewish burial practices at the time of Jesus, but highly unlikely to be Jesus of Nazareth's burial.

You seem to be rather uninformed on the topic. And who knows, you could be quite new to ATS as well. Anyways, we all did this discussion in 2007. Most of the experts that were interviewed for the TV episode that aired came forward and stated that their testimonies were manipulated and they unanimously repudiated the show and it's producers.
Google isn't something to fear friend.

Elequantly said, I am a neophyte. Never human before.
And your answer is? Not True. As in Noahs ark not there found in Turkey.
Next Question.

I hope you'll understand and forgive me for refraining to engage a red herring.

Simple.. people who are not Christians trying to disprove the resurrection of the Son of God.

The tomb "find" is what was debunked, not the production or cinematography in making the documentary. I don't think anyone is saying the documentary is bogus, but the tomb find itself.

I don't mean this in a bad way, have you taken logic courses? One should never entertain a red herring rebuttal.

That's right. The box' were shown to be the right age but the etchings of the names on them were found to have been added later or at least suspect.edit on 14-1-2013 by palg1 because: (no reason given)
Do a simple search, this has been discussed a few times on here. There is tons of info on the net you can find that completely debunks the "find". That's why the documentary was scrubbed, it was poor scholarship and archaeology.
