The Hollywood version in discovering a box with family names, worries me. Several reasons.
1 Corinthians on the essential nature of ascending into heaven.
2 The disrespect for the Royal Bloodline of David, if these were a family member for example an alleged twin, who goes unmentioned in their diatribe of nonsense.
3 The fact even if DNA could be confirmed, how would they know the Royal Bloodline of David was even the same family that adultary had not happened?
4 What financial gains were made by whom where, the Royal Bloodline didn't get anywhere? Just more cheap sensationalistic scandal attacking religion again anyway they can, how desperate.
5 What does Christianity gain benefit when we attack folks enquiring, believers or otherwise, support with quotes other than the rebuking correcting teaching, more particularly quotes along the lines of evanglisim being gentle but bold?
6 Are Christians being provoked to deliberately get angry and argue, surely your testimonial is it?
It was proven a hoax as you know. You admitted that yesterday incan we get along quotes your post. So why post the question again?

Jesus Christ rose bodily from the grave. There are no bones to be found.
Amos Kloner, the first archaeologist to examine the site, said the idea fails to hold up by archaeological standards but makes for profitable television.
"They just want to get money for it," Kloner said.
Another researcher whose work has focused on the Middle East, biblical anthropologist Joe Zias, has dismissed Cameron's claims as "dishonest".
"It has nothing whatsoever to do with Jesus, he was known as Jesus of Nazareth, not Jesus of Jerusalem, and if the family was wealthy enough to afford a tomb, which they probably weren't, it would have been in Nazareth, not here in Jerusalem," he said.
"The historical, religious and archaeological evidence show that the place where Christ was buried is the Church of the Resurrection," said Attallah Hana, a Greek Orthodox clergyman in Jerusalem. The documentary, he said, "contradicts the religious principles and the historcan we get along quotesic and spiritual principles that we hold tightly to."
Stephen Pfann, a biblical scholar at the University of the Holy Land in Jerusalem who was interviewed in the documentary, said the film's hypothesis holds little weight.
"I don't think that Christians are going to buy into this," Pfann said. "But skeptics, in general, would like to see something that pokes holes into the story that so many people hold dear."
"How possible is it?" Pfann said. "On a scale of one through 10 — 10 being completely possible — it's probably a one, maybe a one and a half."
After its debut in New York, "The Lost Tomb of Christ" will be shown on the international Discovery Channel, Canada's Vision, Channel 4 in Britain and Channel 8 in Israel.
This is the second time The Discovery Channel has been involved in a disputed claim about an ancient tomb, Phillips reports. The man at the center of the previous case is now facing trial for forgery.
