Now onto serious matters...

Happy Easter to those of you who celebrate...

I don't comprehend how everyone can simply miss Joseph of Arimathea. Most christians, both Catholic and Orthodox alike, do not know who he was and the "chosen" gospels try to make it difficult for people to know who he is - and actually try to make people think he is the Joseph of Joseph and Mary.

He, in reality, was a very wealthy man of the time - with great power as well. He gave the land to have the crucifiction, gave his tomb for Christ. It is strongly believed and is pointed out in several of the "chosen" and "non-chosen" gospels that even Mary didn't seem too distraut by the killing of her son. Jesus brothers are mentioned in one of the non-chosen ones as being allowed in after an argument with the guards of the property.

What does all this mean? Jesus didn't die on the cross. The "stab" wound was on the right side - no where near where a Roman soldier would know is an instant kill-spot. The "vinegar" given to him on the rag was in reality some form of "knock-out" drug which allowed him to simply appear to have died to the Jews who were allowed in to witness the proceedings.

J of A was also powerful enough to get the family out of the middle east via way of his shipping routes.

NOT A SERMON, JUST A THOUGHT!
