So the tomb could likely really belong to Jesus family, there is a
chance of that, but there is no evidence to dispute the Gospel account
with concrete evidence. Historically there have been two versions of
Jesus death. One is that he was raised from the dead, and came back to
transform the lives of men who went into hiding for fear of sharing his
same fate, only to turn around and go boldly into sharing the same fate.
Again, one could doubt there testimony if they were together to the
end sticking to the same story. Any one of them could have spared their
lives, by simply coming forward and saying it was a lie. Not only did
not of the disciples come forward to discount what was said, but neither
did any of the hundred of followers who were witnesses as well. No one
ever recanted in the Christian Community.

Now the Jewish community has the other side of the story saying
that they came and stole his body and now supposedly they have found his
bones in the tomb of his family. Since Jesus was of the peasant class,
entire families of that class were often buried together without
inscription, in a community graveyard, that in time was nothing but a
collection of bones, much like you see in Christian Catacombs of later
centuries. Since in the centuries after Jesus death everyone was trying
to have "place to visit" to gain money, it could even be that this
"family tomb" was simply a farce tourist attraction, with names changed
to invite the gullible to see the other side of the story, which
Christianity has held all along is a lie. And whose subjective numbers
are these that put it at 190:1? It's just a fancy way of saying this
groups subjective educated guess would be this number, and its riddled
with conflictive presuppositions one has to accept. James Cameron has
proved nothing new. He's simply made new old traditions of news that
has been there all along. Doesn't put a dent in my Faith that James
Cameron is wrong and for me there is no odds; he's simply 100%% wrong.

If I felt James Cameron was right, I could simply revert to my
Mongolian instincts and seek to live my life as Nietzsche would suggest,
and then I'd have to disappear from the Internet and seek to become
someone everyone here might have to worry about someday when it comes to
your personal freedom and liberty, for to me it would be irrelevant. I
would seek to become the top of my species genetically and evolutionary
speaking wise. However, since I am a person of faith, I will not so
easily enter the sinful nature to be mastered by it, and will seek to
remain the mostly compassionate person that I am today.
