Christian sects drop their differences, and their fists, to restore Jesus's tomb

he Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the Jerusalem holy site where Jesus is thought have been crucified, is as often the scene of Christian rivalry as brotherly love.

 

Catholic, Armenian and Greek Orthodox priests jostle for space under its great dome, sing during each other's prayers and occasionally engage in sectarian fist fights.

 

But the three communities have set aside their differences for a task all can agree is of critical importance: restoring the crumbling structure of Jesus's tomb.

 

At the heart of the church is the Aedicule, a towering shrine built on what is said to be the spot where Jesus was buried before rising from the dead three days later. Scissors-32x32.png

More proof that you can be a Christian and silly at the same time. This and hypocrisy by followers of Jesus (IMO) keep many away.
