    The Israeli archaeologist who excavated the tomb thinks the film is a load of crock.
    "Their movie is not serious," Amos Kloner, the Bar Ilan University professor who led the excavation in the 1980s, told National Geographic News.

    "They [say they] are 'discovering' things. But they haven't discovered anything. They haven't found anything. Everything had already been published.

    "And there is no basis on which to make a story out of this or to identify this as the family of Jesus."

    Of course National Geographic would have a vested interested in running down Cameron's little fantasy, since they would see it as a rival to The Gospel of Judas, their own little bit of overblown unhistorical twaddle.

    I think that the Gospel is true, and that this film is not. Simple as that really.

    Any actual basis for those beliefs?
