Time Mag Re-Opens Christ’s Tomb
Tweet
By Warner Todd Huston in Newsbusters:
In 2006, movie mogul James Cameron lent his name to a “documentary” detailing the “discovery” of the tomb of Jesus Christ and his family. The film was widely panned by archeologists, Christians, Jews and non-believers alike and the evidence of the find has been shown to be highly suspect. But, this doesn’t seem to bother Time Magazine as the monthly is reviving the story once again in Jesus ‘Tomb’ Controversy Reopened, a story by Tim McGirk. Naturally, the entire article is written from the perspective of those who take the anti-Christian position on the story and Christians are presented as rejecting the “find” merely out of blind belief while those supporting the interpretation of the find as that of Jesus’ final resting place are presented as serious scientists and academicians.
Catch this first paragraph:
When the Discovery Channel aired a TV documentary last year raising the possibility that archeologists had found the family tomb of Jesus Christ in the hills behind Jerusalem, it caused a huge backlash among Christians. The claim, after all, challenged one of the cornerstones of Christian faith — that Jesus, after his crucifixion, rose bodily to heaven in his physical form.
