Easter Canceled This Year!Author Unknown
Jerusalem, April 15, 1995- -Archeologists who have 
been excavating in the hills above Jerusalem announced today the discovery of a 
2000-year-old mummy bearing puncture wounds through the hands and feet and a 
deep laceration in the lower left chest. Scientists noted that there was a large 
accumulation of blood in the lower body, consistent with the body having been 
upright at the time of death. Carbon dating of the body and its burial shroud 
indicated death had occurred 1990 +-95 years ago. The archeologists stated that 
in spite of its age, the body was well preserved in the dry air of the hidden, 
sealed cave. 
A senior archeologist, asked if this was the body of 
Jesus Christ, refused to comment, but agreed that "the evidence is not 
inconsistent with that hypothesis." A younger archeologist, who requested 
anonymity, said "This is the corpse of Christ. Period. They're just going to 
have to cancel Easter this year." 

A Vatican spokesman said that such a discovery was 
impossible, because they had the true burial cloth of Christ, the Shroud of 
Turin. Asked to explain its carbon date of approximately 1300 AD, the spokesman 
repeated the Vatican position that there was a burst of radiation at the time of 
the resurrection. In a separate news conference, another spokesman said that a 
careful reading of the Bible and Catholic doctrine would show that they were 
"not inconsistent" with such a discovery. 

Ronald Reagan, former President of the United States, 
announced outrage that such a discovery should be made. In Lynchburg, Virginia, 
Jerry Falwell, leader of Moral Majority, denounced it as "an attempt by 
atheistic scientists to undermine the Constitution." 

Armed troops were patrolling the Christian sections of 
Jerusalem after the Chief Rabbi commented that he "had always known the 
resurrection was a myth." The Israeli government ordered him to make no further 
statements on the discovery.

I thought it might be intended as a joke. It wasn't a gut buster, but
sort of cute. Except for me, atheists aren't very funny.

Get used to the shock god guys. One day soon you will read an article
similar to this and it will be real.

The end is nigh. Enjoy it while you can.
