How do they know it is Jesus. I'm not saying that his body (or remains) isn't somewhere on earth, but why THIS box. Why this body? Also, these Christians are a little crazy. If they believe in miracles couldn't Jesus' body both be in the earth and risen? Why is it so easy to make their ideas fall apart. If a little science can "bring down" Christianity they are admitting to a pretty weak religion.

I am Catholic, and I have no problem with someone finding Jesus' body. My faith rests in Jesus' teachings--love the poor, give to your neighbors, blah blah. I also believe in the teachings of Soujourner Truth, Ghandi, MLK Jr, Coretta Scott King, Audre Lorde and Barbara Lee. These guys need to get a stronger G-d and a more powerful religion.

That's retarded. It's still 2 years away.

As for Jesus, why would this be found now? I only skimmed the article, but why does this seem like perfect publicity for a movie coming out in 18 months or so?
