A Titanic Tale

Guess we should all crawl back into our beds and wait for the world to end…(he said with tongue resolutely placed on inside of right cheek)…

NEW FILM CLAIMS JESUS DIDN’T RISE FROM THE DEAD, BODY HAS BEEN FOUND: But Israeli archeologist who found tomb says the film is nonsense

“Brace yourself. James Cameron, the man who brought you The Titanic is back with another blockbuster. This time, the ship he’s sinking is Christianity. In a new documentary, Producer Cameron and his director, Simcha Jacobovici, make the starting claim that Jesus wasn’t resurrected — the cornerstone of Christian faith — and that his burial cave was discovered near Jerusalem. And, get this, Jesus sired a son with Mary Magdelene. No, it’s not a re-make of The Da Vinci Codes. It’s supposed to be true.”….so begins a controversial story this weekend by Time magazine’s Jerusalem bureau chief Tim McGirk…..Cameron is set to unveil his heretical claims in a press conference Monday…..but now the Israeli archeologist who actually discovered the ancient burial caves 27 years ago says there is absolutely no proof to Cameron’s outlandish claims and that Cameron and his team are merely trying to profit by attacking a central tenet of the Christian faith that Jesus was raised from the dead on the third day and that His body has never been discovered….“The claim that the burial site has been found is not based on any proof, and is only an attempt to sell,” says Israeli archeologist Professor Amos Kloner…..reports Ynetnews — an Israeli news site — “a similar film was released 11 years ago, and [Kloner] said that this current film was merely a renewed effort to create controversy in the Christian world in order to make a bigger profit….says Kloner: “I refute all their claims and efforts to waken a renewed interest in the findings. With all due respect, they are not archeologists.”….reports Ynet: “According to [Kloner], the names inscribed on the coffins were very common in the Second Temple era, and as such were not sufficient proof that the cave was the burial site of Jesus’ family.”
