BLAME CANADA!:

Artifact cracked en route to Toronto: Uproar over damage to stone box linked to Jesus's brother (Joseph Brean and Anne Marie Owens, November 02, 2002, National Post)
Biblical scholars were outraged yesterday to hear that an ancient stone box that could be one of the greatest archeological discoveries of our time shattered into several pieces while being shipped from Israel to the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto.

The box is believed to have contained the bones of James, the brother of Jesus, and could be the first archeological evidence of Jesus's existence


In a related story, Jacques Chretien admitted to using the Shroud of Turin as a tablecloth. Posted by Orrin Judd at November 3, 2002 3:48 PM

Is the accident circumstantial, or is it evidence of deus ex machina's
judgment on a fraud?

Or evidence of Jehovah's judgment upon Chretien?
