Re: Jame's ossuary is fake
JesusFighter,
Given the fact that I have someone who was highly responsible for the dead sea scrolls editing process agreeing that it is completely authentic.....I will say most certainly not.
And no, thats the thread title (duh!). The issue here is whether or not the ossuary is fake or not.
I think that given the fact that the Israeli authorities consider it a fake compared to your aquaintance thinking it isn't is more than enough reason to discount it as "reliable history".
That is the issue here as it is the standard you have to meet.
Joshua, Jesus, etc. Weren't exactly rare names, so even if they were genuine, so what? When I die my tomb becomes an apostles last resting place...
