Goliath’s Skull Found In Holy Land! / Amazing Fact!!!!! Goliath's Skull Been Exhumed At The Foot Of Mount Elah / Goliath Skull Was Discovered in Holy Land! (2) (3) (4)

In the post, Ben Witherington digs up the following ‘proof’ of Goliath’s existence, from the 25 May 1993 copy of The Weekly World News, a publication which claims to be “The World’s Only Reliable Newspaper”: Weekly World News, 25 May 1993 The Weekly World News , for those of you who haven’t encountered it, is famous for stories about Elvis sightings, aliens, human-bat hybrids, and various supernatural beings…not to mention the odd Giant. It seems the story was later picked up and published as though it were a genuine archaeological discovery in The Kingdom Times (Belfast; May 1994), a publication of the British Israelites. BW3 was having wee joke with us, you see. Here is the story from inside the Weekly World News (but how did Goliath’s skull get back to the Valley of Elah from Jerusalem?): Weekly World News, 25 May 1993 I wonder about the identities of the unnamed “top Bible scholars” who confirmed the story. Could it be that the Weekly World News article was, in fact, the first joint publication from Provan, Long and Longman? |

If you read your bible you will realise David cut off his head and took it to the Israelites. So the stone was never removed from his head. |

There is a trend in Christians and the way the take the Word of God and the Bible.. It is not a Story Book of Fables and Tales. If you believe in the Holy Bible and its historical veracity, why not take time to cross-reference it with actual historical evidence no matter how small. you cannot believe in Faith when you already have the book in your hands. Weekly World News keeps insulting religion by publishing fictional outlandish stories making intelligent christians look like over-grown dumb-asses.

guyX:I agree with you...it says in the bible that david took Goliath's sword and cut off his (Goliath) head with it, and brought back the head to israel like you said. So its ok to agree that Goliath's head and body were buried seperately. |
