TV Show · Documentary

`Biblical Conspiracies' returns to the crumbling tombs, palaces and ruins of the Holy Land to examine great archaeological finds and beloved icons and explore age-old secrets of the Judeo-Christian religions. With the use of cutting-edge technology, searches begin for ancient conspiracies hidden away for thousands of years, detailing all of the groundbreaking mysteries behind the myths. Hourlong episodes dissect central themes, including whether a translated sixth-century manuscript tells the true story of Jesus' marriage to Mary Magdalene, and if a forgotten sculpture made by Michelangelo brings to light strange and long-buried religious practices from the time of Christ.
