Franklin Graham: Look for Christ's 2nd Coming on Facebook, Twitter
By Lauren Frayer - AOL NewsThe Rev. Franklin Graham says he knows what could be the ultimate trending topic on Twitter: the second coming of Christ. Graham, son of the prominent and politically connected Christian evangelist Billy Graham, gave an Easter prophecy of his own on Sunday, telling ABC's "This Week" host Christiane Amanpour that social media could be the way in which Jesus Christ's second coming could be revealed to the world. "The Bible says that every eye is going to see [the Second Coming]," Graham said. "How is the whole world going to see [Jesus Christ] all at one time? I don't know, unless all of a ...
Pope: Humanity Isn't Random Product of Evolution
By not in system - AOL NewsVATICAN CITY - Pope Benedict XVI marked the holiest night of the year for Christians by stressing that humanity isn't a random product of evolution.

Did Journalist Find 'THE Nails' Used to Crucify Jesus?
By Linda Gradstein - AOL NewsJERUSALEM -- Controversial journalist Simcha Jacobovici says he may have found the nails that were used to crucify Jesus more than 2,000 years ago. He chronicled his Indiana Jones-type search in a new documentary called "The Nails of the Cross," which was screened today at a news conference in Jerusalem and will be broadcast in the U.S., Canada and Israel in the coming weeks. Jacobovici presented two first-century Roman nails that were bent "in a way that is consistent with crucifixion." He contends that these are the same nails found in the burial tomb of Caiaphas, the Jewish high priest ...
BYU Honor Code: 5 Other Schools With Strict Rules
By Torie Bosch - AOL NewsWhen Brigham Young University basketball star Brandon Davies was dismissed from the team for reportedly violating the school honor code by having premarital sex, many observers were stunned. After all, having sex seems something of a rite of passage for American college students. The scandal has brought lots of attention to BYU's honor code, which also asks that students stay away from tea and coffee (the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, or the Mormon Church, frowns on caffeine) and adhere to strict clothing and grooming standards (no beards for men; only one piercing per ear for ...

BYU's mission is "to provide an education in an atmosphere consistent with the ideals and principles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints," and adhering to its honor code is a requirement for admission, employment and continued ...
Pope's New Book: Jews Not to Blame for Killing Jesus
By Dana Kennedy - AOL NewsIn astonishing and personal statements that could turn centuries of anti-Semitism upside down, Pope Benedict XVI says in a new book that Jews are not to blame for crucifying and killing Jesus. In "Jesus of Nazareth: Holy Week," coming out next week, Benedict takes issue with key passages in the New Testament that for eons have been interpreted to mean that Jews were culpable for the killing of Jesus and have justified the persecution of Jews worldwide. The Catholic Church has maintained since Vatican II in 1965 that Jews were not collectively at fault for the death of Christ. But Jewish ...
Holy See-t? Couple Spot Jesus in a Chair
By Ben Muessig - AOL NewsCall it the chair-way to heaven. A couple in Mission Viejo, Calif., say they have found the likeness of Jesus Christ on an old rocking chair that had been sitting in their backyard for years. Lynn Balducci acquired the wooden chair more than 10 years ago, but only spotted Jesus' visage when she and her husband, Lou, decided to toss the old cushions last week, according to KTLA. ...
