Who needs April Fools pranks when reality is so full of hoaxes every day of the year?

Ossuary Trial stalled after more than 3 years

The Jerusalem Post for some reason calls this the "Jesus Ossuary."

Quote:

As Deutsch took the stand this week for the first time after more than three years in court, 120 witnesses and 8,000 pages of testimony, he said the charges against him were "lies and hallucinations."

. . .

"They fabricated this entire indictment, the whole thing, from A to Z," said Deutsch, who tried to dismiss his lawyer earlier this year because of spiralling trial costs.

The author of this article has a blog, http://jamesossuarytrial.blogspot.com/ with an archive of his past work going back to 2002 (slow download because of the picture of the ossuary.)

Everyone seems to want to try to forget that Oded Golan was caught with a 'forgery factory' in his apartment.

I know xtians are dying to fool themselves but come on....be realistic.

Helena and the One True Blue Cross?
The holy SIX INCH NAILS?
Fashioned into the bridle for Constantine's horse?
Oded Galan is merely continuing an old tradition.
When did the forgery factory commence trading?
Is this to be answered by Hollywood or Scotland Yard?

This is a criminal trial requiring proof beyond reasonable doubt.
In a civil case I have little doubt that the verdict would go against Obed Golan. I am much less sure whether the evidence is strong enough for a criminal conviction.
