Living in the World
Incomplete DNA Conclusions

Not surprisingly, it appears that the Cameron Crazies [not the Dukies!] of Jesus Tomb infamy have not been totally forthcoming on the "blockbuster" DNA info. As reported on www.aomin.org , the blog of James White, e-mail correspondance with the DNA tester indicates the Cameron Crazies selectively reported possible results.

On page 172 of tge Jesus Family Tomb, Dr. Carney Matheson, reports that the bones are not maternally related in one of the tombs, so if unrelated would most likely have been husband and wife. However, in the e-mail response to Dr. White he stated that he mentioned "all the possibilites...father and daughter, paternal cousins, half brother and sister (sharing the same father) or simply unrealated individuals" to the Cameron Crazies.

So, for you CSI fans, the "evidence" has much broader implications that the Cameron Crazies lead the viewer/reader to believe. And, much broader implications dramatically affects their propostions. A disingenuous handling of information casts great shadows of doubt on the motives of the promoters of this hyped up publicity stunt. There is a lack of sincerity and integrity when you fail to address all the consequences of your so-called scientific evidence in formulating your hypothesis. Why would they do that? Because to do otherwise is fatal to the case of CSI:Jerusalem and puts them out of court.
