Once I got past this first paragraph I found some interesting news...

(IsraelNN.com) The Israel Antiquities Authority announces the first time in the history of the archaeological research of Jerusalem that building remains from the First Temple period have been exposed so close to the Temple Mount – on the eastern slopes of the Upper City.

Remains found?

I know what this really means, but my first thought was "I hate it when temple buildings are found and then vanish. Impish temple buildings!"

hahahaha! I know! That's one of the worst paragraphs I've seen in awhile... The remains are also "exposed". Put some clothes on for heaven's sake!

That is fascinating...

Of course, the Islamic double-thinkers have yet another major hurdle to jump over in order to maintain cognitive dissonance between the obvious fact that the Jews' Temple was on that Temple Mount, and their "infallible" holy book telling them that it never even existed...
