[LatinRiteChristian]

I think the book they're talking about might have something to do with a show that was broadcast on a cable channel that is named after a magazine with NATIONAL circulation whose main topic is GEOGRAPHY. To make a long story short, the ostuaries of a Jewish family were discovered, and some scientists tested the DNA of the remains they found.  According to the scientists, the ostuaries were labeld with names such as "Joseph", "Mary", and "Jesus" as well as with names of other "family members."

You should have said the name of the book... it is only just to denounce the frauds for what they are!
