Ya see science can not handle questions like that as it deals with provable facts. Any scientific hoaxes is not in the realm of science any more than fairy tales. How can science prove something one way or another without evidence. Historical evidence is still here say and nothing more. Science is probably not where you want to go for answers like that. I would suggest perhaps a church that believes so much in their teachings that they are sure they will be forgiven for molesting alter boys. The truth can be anything they wish it to be.
Originally posted by RJHinds Well, that still leaves Jesus of whom we have the empty tomb, as well as the burial cloths used at his gravesite with a supernatural image on one of them that scientists are unable to explain.
Actually the image has been explained. It's a result of being in contact with a rotting corpse. Is there a label on this corpse cover that says it belongs to a particular corpse or are we just guessing who's body was rotting inside?
The empty tomb is also dubious. How do we know it ever had a body in it let alone that of a relative of god?
Evidence, if you want to play with scientists you have to produce some evidence. A face cloth, provenance unknown, a bit of cloth once in contact with an unknown dead body and a hole in a rock don't seem like very good evidence of the existence of any particular person.

Well, science did prove many evil-lution hoaxes. 😏
P.S. I believe sunhouse objects to speacking of religious matters on the SCIENCE FORUM. He wants that kept to the Spirituality Form.

It's not just sonhouse, very few people who are interested in scientific matters want to listen to creationist stupidities, for example. If we want to see tigers we go to the zoo. Everything has its place.
