I hated this kid, before I knew he was a christian. He goes up there and thanks Jesus and God. And the entire award show, mentions GOD and the beliefs of these people. I'm just happy the media and MTV has embraced GOD.

There were plenty of F-bombs dropped at this years MTV Video Music Awards, sprinkled with several naughty moments, but there was also a little positive influence to come out of the show.

Immediately following the telecast, the words God and Jesus became top trending topics on twitter due in large part to pop prince Justin Bieber using the phrase while accepting his coveted Moonman for Best Male Video.

"I just want to say thank you so much, not only to God but to Jesus," Bieber said. "Because I wouldn't be here without him. He's really blessed me. He's put me in this position. So I want to say thank you so much."

And as God and Jesus went wild in the Twitterverse, it had many raising questions and expressing views.

God and Jesus are trending, maybe there is hope for our future, wrote one person, another tweeted God and Jesus shouldn't trend just because Justin thanked them. They should be trending every day, actually, while another said I can honestly say that this years #VMA were the worst so far.. But it is pretty cool that God and Jesus are trending because of it.

But Bieber wasnt the only artist that wasnt afraid to vocalize his Christian values at the youth-orientated Hollywood showdown.

A glowing Britney Spears immediately thanked God upon accepting the award for Best Pop Video.

First Id like to thank God for blessing me so much, the emotional star said. My beautiful two boys, Jayden and Preston, mommy loves you so much. My management team, Larry Rudolph and Jason (Trawick) I love you!

This is a man, who makes an argument argument against a theistic deity in his work, but an argument in favor of love, compassion, and understanding. A argument for philosophical progress for all of mankind, in the absence of a personal god.

When Beiber starts singing songs about a greater understanding of the universe, sings in a group that uses exotic time signitures and changes the said time signatures 40+ times in a single song, and less teeny bopper (*)(*)(*)(*), he might just well be worth the bandwidth it requires to broadcast his material. Beiber is an argument against god and all that is good and holy.

Jesus tomb opened for the first time in over 2 centuries for renovations...

Jesus tomb opened for the first time in centuries
Mon, Oct 31, 2016 - Preservation experts have opened for the first time in at least two centuries what Christians believe is Jesus tomb inside the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem, Israel.

Some of the historic work was witnessed by photographer Gali Tibbon, who captured images of the site believed to contain the rock upon which Jesus was laid in about 33 AD as it was uncovered as part of ongoing restoration at the site. A marble slab covering the site, among the holiest in Christianity, was pulled back for three days as part of both restoration work and archeological analysis, experts on the scene told reporters. It was the first time the marble had been removed since at least 1810, when the previous restoration work took place following a fire, and possibly earlier, said Father Samuel Aghoyan, the churchs Armenian superior. A painting of Jesus can be seen in the narrow area above where the marble slab was removed.

Debris and material was found beneath the marble and was being further studied, Aghoyan said. It is moving in a sense, something weve been talking about so many centuries, Aghoyan said. National Geographic has been documenting the restoration work which is being carried out by a team of Greek specialists. It reported that the exposure of the burial bed is giving researchers an unprecedented opportunity to study the original surface of what is considered the most sacred site in Christianity. My knees are shaking a little bit, Fred Hiebert, an archeologist-in-residence at the National Geographic Society, said in a video on the organizations Web site during the work at the shrine.

A shrine was built in the 19th century over the site of the cave where Jesus is believed to have been buried before his resurrection, and it is visited by throngs of tourists and pilgrims each day. Earlier this year, a major restoration project began on the site, surrounded by a structure called an edicule and located at the center of the church in Jerusalems Old City, underneath its dome.

The project required the agreement of the various Christian denominations that share the church, which also contains the area where Jesus is believed to have been crucified and his body anointed. The restoration project is expected to be completed around March next year, in time for Easter, and the site has remained open to visitors for nearly the entire time, although the ornate edicule has been surrounded by scaffolding. Its marble slabs have weakened over the years, caused in part by the thousands of people who visit daily.

Experts May Have Found Rock Where Body of Jesus Was Laid
October 27, 2016 In the innermost chamber of the site said to be the tomb of Jesus, a restoration team has peeled away a marble layer for the first time in centuries in an effort to reach what it believes is the original rock surface where Jesus body was laid.

Many historians have long believed that the original cave, identified a few centuries after Jesus death as his tomb, was obliterated ages ago. But an archaeologist accompanying the restoration team said ground penetrating radar tests determined that cave walls are in fact standing at a height of six feet and connected to bedrock behind the marbled panels of the chamber at the center of Jerusalems Church of the Holy Sepulchre. What was found, said National Geographic archaeologist Fredrik Hiebert, is astonishing.

Christian nuns watch as experts begin renovation of Jesus' tomb in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem's old city, June 6, 2016. The team has begun a historic renovation at the spot where Christians believe Jesus was buried, overcoming longstanding religious rivalries to carry out the first repairs in more than 200 years.

From Tuts tomb to Jesus

The work is part of a historic renovation project to reinforce and preserve the Edicule, the chamber housing the cave where Jesus is said to have been entombed and resurrected. It is the centerpiece of one of Christianitys oldest churches and one of its most important shrines. I usually spend my time in Tuts tomb, said Hiebert about the Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamuns burial site, but this is more important. National Geographic is partnering with Greek restoration experts to document the work. A 12th-century building sitting on fourth-century remains, the Church of the Holy Sepluchre is the only place where six Christian denominations practice their faith at the same site.

Chamber restored in 1810

The Edicule was last restored in 1810 after a fire and is in need of reinforcement after years of exposure to humidity and candle smoke. A hulking iron cage built around the Edicule by British authorities in 1947 for support still stands but is not enough. Renovations at this holiest of spots require mutual agreement by the churchs various custodians, and that is notoriously hard to secure. The denominations jealously guard different parts of the site and often object to even the slightest changes.

Last year, Israeli police briefly shut down the building after Israels Antiquities Authority deemed it unsafe. It prompted the Christian denominations to green light the repairs, which began in June. Pilgrims line up throughout the day for the chance to crouch in the Edicules tiny room. They kneel before a white marble encasing, said to cover a surface hewn from the side of the limestone cave where Jesus body was laid before his resurrection.
