Visiting the Grave of Jesus Christ in Japan

According to popular belief, Jesus Christ was crucified and buried in Jerusalem in the early to mid First Century A.D. But in actuality (cough! bullcrap!) Jesus escaped and made his made through Siberia to Aomori in northern Japan where he lived out his days to the ripe old age of 106 with wife and kids and was later buried in the village of Shingo.

Last summer when I was going to Aomori's festivals in August, I stopped in to see the grave for myself. Regardless of the unbelievability of the claim, it's still a nice out-of-the-way spot to visit.

Thanks for the upload. I'm in Tokyo,so I may have to go to Aomori and check it out. Interesting stuff.

@japanrican1969 there's quite a lot of interesting stuff up there. There's also a mini-stone henge in northern Akita from prehistoric times

Jesus Nazis freak out when hear this story. They only believe what they choose to believe. I believe this story because Jesus was a soldier of Israel. He died a soldiers death. He returned to life, ascended to heaven ( founding the Israeli Air Force). God loved him and gave him a soldiers retirement in secret away from all the evil people. My own military father retired happy ever after in Japan leaving a widow there. So why not Jesus?

A soldiers curse on all that deny Jesus a wife and children

Okay. A, there's no such thing as a "true religion". Everything's story. Doesn't mean it's not "true". Also, how could he have escaped being crucified if he wanted to do it to begin with? C, Jesus had kids? News to me.

The only true religions are: Sunni Muslim and Catholic Christianity both are the only real sections. (Shiite was real but then everyone but Iran quit)

BLASPHEMY! Jesus rose from the dead, you dummy!

Lol, was the brother's name Craig, Stephen Lynch sings a hilarious song about Craig Christ. Interesting story though, no more or less credible than any other. Pretty place too.

The actual facts of all religions is very clear in Islam. Read the Qur'an to understand the reality.Jesus Christ was not killed or crossed . But God lift him up to the heaven. As per the Islamic relgion he will come back at the near end of this life.He will break the Cross.

Now isn't that something

[RoninDave]

@iddorin whatever, dude. You sure haven't shown any Christianity calling people atheist and getting bent out of shape over a different point of view because you don't like it. You're the type that has done more to turn people away from Christianity than any kind of video like this but you are too full of yourself to see it.

Anyway, back under your bridge, you sanctimonious troll.

[iddorin]

@RoninDave So, what is to be Christian, to use bad language, hate other Christians like you do? I told you it's not about me, it's about you, it's your video if you remember. And you keep deceiving yourself about hate-filled Christians. If I would be like that I would be ignoring you, but I care about you and don't want you to loose your eternal life. So please turn to God, admit your wrong doing and treat our Lord Jesus ans He deserves, A SAVIOUR!!!
