Re: THAT IS NOT HIS TOMB!!
AA you seem very agitated about this particular subject.
There's some false logic going on in your post.
1) You suggest that because the tomb was discovered in 1980 they would not wait 27 years to reveal the discovery.
This assumes that the people who discovered it, knew what they discovered. Or that the people wanted tourism. Or that the people were "pro" Jesus. etc.
2) "If it was Jesus' tomb the people would have buried him in a much morehidden location"
Is there anything in the Bible to suggest that Jesus was buried someplace secret? You're making assumptions about these people would have done, but based on what?
3) The names on the tomb were common names from that period.
This is an excellent point! I want to see more stuff like this from you.
The problem with the way you put this is that it you are saying that because the names are so common it's not Jesus' tomb. In fact, what would be more accurate is to say: "The fact that there were these names on these particular tombs is not solid evidence for it being THE Jesus as opposed to just A Jesus."
Insufficient evidence does not disprove a theory, it just doesn't adequately support a theory.

Re: THAT IS NOT HIS TOMB!!
Yeah, I don't really have an opinion on this, I was just trying to help Archarch structure his thoughts/posts better.
