From Mikey Quigley

Sir: In your survey Fraser Nelson states, ‘If the verifiable bones of Christ were discovered, you’d have to admit that the Muslims were right, Jesus was a prophet and Christianity was a 2,006-year hoax.’ What is this guy talking about? ‘If the verifiable bones of Christ were discovered’, it would in fact prove that Mohammed was a false prophet and that Islam is a 1,400year-old hoax. According to Mohammed, Jesus never died on the cross (some unknown patsy was put in his place) but was whisked off to heaven in the greatest religious swindle in human history. Therefore, according to Islam, there cannot be any bones of Jesus.
