✝️ Jesus’ Body Found? Unraveling the Shocking Archaeological Discovery That Could Change Christianity Forever

In a discovery that could potentially rewrite religious history, a team of archaeologists claims they may have found the body of Jesus in a tomb just outside of Jerusalem. The implications of this finding are staggering, prompting theologians, historians, and scientists alike to re-examine long-held beliefs about the resurrection of Jesus , the cornerstone of Christian faith . 🏺 The Tomb Discovery: A Hidden Chamber Beneath the Old City The site, located beneath an unmarked stone structure buried deep under layers of sediment, was uncovered after a seven-year excavation project aimed at exploring lesser-known burial sites from the first century CE. According to the team’s preliminary report, the chamber contained a well-preserved ossuary— a limestone bone box —with an inscription that loosely translates to "Yeshua bar Yosef" ( Jesus son of Joseph ). While skeptics argue that the name was common during the time period, researchers point out a series of peculiar coinciden...

Sample Reading Selection With Comprehension Questions 

If we look back at man's achievements through the years, we will find a number of earthshaking phenomena that have brought about drastic changes in our lifestyle and values as well. One such phenomenon was the industrial revolution.

In the field of work, the industrial revolution meant mas production where goods were produced in large quantities and production time as cut in half. This resulted, on the one hand, in the constant supply of goods at a lower cost; but on the other hand, it also meant that there should be a corresponding demand for the goods to warrant production. As a result, goods were made not to last long in order that there would be a constant demand for them. Quality. therefore, gave way to quantity, and we, the buying public, became a throw-away society since there was so much to be had at affordable price anyway.

The industrial revolution also introduced the assembly-line type of production where work assignments were compartmentalized and specialization in specific phases of the job become the standard procedure to follow. This meant that no single worker worked on one item for start to finish. While it is true that the worker did become quite efficient in his job, he was nonetheless reduced to a mere cog in the wheel of industry and so a number found fulfillment in their work which had become so mechanical.

Another earthshaking phenomenon which came as an offshoot of industrialization was urbanization. Persons in search of work flocked to the industrial sites where factories were located. In  time these developed into cities. The flocking to urban areas resulted in overcrowding which in turn gave rise to problems of housing and sanitation. With the exodus of more and more people from rural areas to the cities, the congestion became more and more acute and when the industries were no longer able to absorb into their workforce all the persons searching for a job, unemployment rose and slum areas and squatter communities mushroomed. These eventually turned into hotbeds of  crime as the unemployed resorted to illegal means to keep body and soul together.

Notwithstanding all of these, industrialization has spelled progress, at least materially. Industrialized nations boom with industries and infrastructure, such as tall buildings, paved roads, etc, to show as proof of their affluence.

In fact, nowadays, industrialization is equated with development. Most, if not all of the developing Third Word nations are still on their way to industrialization. Industrialization, therefore, means material progress but there is a price to be paid.

Understanding Grade Transmutation in DepEd

Understanding Grade Transmutation in DepEd In the Philippine education system, grade transmutation is the process of converting raw scores into equivalent grades. This ensures consistency and fairness when assessing student performance. DepEd follows specific guidelines for transmuting grades, allowing educators to evaluate students objectively. How Does Grade Transmutation Work? Initial Grades : Students receive raw scores (usually out of 100) for their assessments, exams, and projects. These initial grades serve as the basis for transmutation. Transmuted Grades : To convert initial grades into transmuted grades, DepEd uses a predefined scale. Let’s take a closer look at the scale: Table Initial Grade Range Transmuted Grade 100 100 98.40 – 99.99 99 96.80 – 98.39 98 … … 68.00 – 69.59 80 Below 68.00 60 Interpreting the Scale : For example, if a student scores between 98.40 and 99.99, their transmuted grade will be 99. Similarly, an initial grade of 85.60 – 87.19 corresponds to a transm...
