but it soon would be swept up in the rising political conflict between jews and romans over roman rule in jerusalem. >> the relationship between judaism and christianity after the turn of the second century would become more and more hostile as time went on, partly because of other political forces that continued to develop. >> narrator: in the year 132 of the common era, jerusalem bristled with rumors that the emperor hadrian planned to rebuild the city and the temple, dedicating it to jupiter, the patron god of the city of rome. for many jews, this was an abomination worthy of divine vengeance. >> the political expectations of apocalyptic did not simply die out after the first revolt. some people, both within christian tradition and within jewish tradition, still expected a cataclysmic event to bring a new kingdom on earth soon. >> ( dramatized ): behold, the days are coming, and it will happen when the time of the world has ripened and the harvest of the seed of the evil ones and the good ones has come." >> within 60 years after the first revolt, there would arise a new rebellion. w

meant the roman kingdom. it meant the roman empire. when you talked about the kingdom of god and were somehow setting it up in some tension with the roman empire, you were making a very caustic criticism of the roman empire, and you were saying that its system was not the system of god. >> the jewish historian josephus tells us a number of stories about characters whose career could be crudely summarized as following: some guy wakes up in the morning and he thinks he's the messiah or something, or he's a prophet. and he says... he gets a group of people to follow him. he says, "we're going to go out in the desert and we're going to wait for god to do something for us." so a whole bunch of people may go with him-- maybe thousands-- go with him out to this deserted, unsecured place, and they wait for what josephus calls "the tokens of their deliverance." and the romans send a vicious police action out there and kill everybody. when that kind of police action is perpetrated against what we might consider harmless fanatics, the romans are

it seems kind of late. >> this is long after the roman annexation in 680. the city continued to be a mitropoulos until the 600. after the roman empire converts to christianity with konstantin in 338 b, we see the city's in the middle east start to build churches within 150 years. so we see a large, thriving christian community right up until the early 600. >> now we are in this byzantine church. with talked about the treasury and the temple, which is a marvelous piece of work. in this business of archaeology, how much is digging and uncovering things and once you have uncovered things, how much is a restoration of what you think you have found? >> that is a good question. in petra, it's a difficult process. with sandstone, we face a lot of problems. it is fragile and decomposes easily when exposed to the elements. we have to weigh all the options. do we uncover stuff just for the sake of uncovering it to make it visible for the tourists or are we actually answering scientific questions? >> you have come upon tombs and temples. you have come upon the church

it was the one that god said do not eat up, so what they did, they fell short, white romans -- like romans said, and when that happened, but all -- the whole world changed. there was a separation. how many of you have been to the grand canyon or have seen a picture of the grand canyon? you have this magnificent expense of earth, and yet you have this gap between these magnificent expenses. think about it. you all remember years and years ago, there was a famous motorcycle rider, and his name was evel knievel, and he was going to do what no one else had. he wanted to take that motorcycle and traverse a big gap. imagine someone, to jump across the grand canyon. you would say, "oh, what a fool." it cannot happen. when we have sinned, personal ability, to jump across one side of the grand canyon to another on our own steam, never going to happen, but there was a way that was made for us, and that way was the perfect sacrifice of jesus christ. godson, a likeness, exactly like us, it came to earth just as we celebrated christmas in the form of a brand new baby. he came to this earth as a simple

they're all contained in this 2000 page book, the roman missile, third edition. that's what it's called. 2000 pages of prayers. people in the pews get used to the text have been using hand outs. their parrishs are making them available to them. we have something to show for that, too. those have been helpful. some have the basics. some have a more comprehensive list. how is this for you, i have my instructions. why the reaction to the changes? >> well, it's, you know, we're catholic, that is universal and so are the reactions. people love it and people resent it. most accept it and say, why are we doing this? let's get on with it. for me, we want people to pay more attention to what they're saying and doing. it's been a great opportunity to make people think about what they're saying. i'm guilty. i always used to say the our father and think of grocery shopping at the same time. multibraining. now, i know the responses within your spirit, if i'm thinking of something else, also with you slips out. this is making people be more deliberate about what we say and thi

[laughter] tavis: let me ask you, i want to get the question out the right way. i get your fascination with polanski as a film maker. how much then does the script play in making a decision to work with a director who you have been in awe of your entire life? >> well, technically speaking, a lot, because the script is really what it's supposed to be. tavis: polanski could have asked you to be in a piece of crap and you would have still said yes? how much did the script have to do with it? [laughter] >> with the decision, i have a differentiate, a little. with the decision, it didn't have that much to do, you know. but, with my enthusiasm to play this part in this play, everythin

christine romans is with us. christine, we had talked about a little bit of deja vu. 2004 president bush was pitching the same thing. >> he stood up and said we have to make sure companies have an incentive to keep jobs in the country or to bring those jobs back. there was a big tax break for being able to take foreign profits and bring them back to the united states in hopes that companies would hire with that money. years later, you look at the biggest companies that got the biggest tax breaks. they didn't hire in this country. in fact, they were down jobs in this country. they were investing big abroad. the reason why companies bring jobs home is not because a president asks them to. sometimes even when you try to give tax breaks to reward this behavior, sometimes it doesn't even work. history has shown that. it's because they can make money. it's how they make money. their responsibility is to their shareholders, not necessarily to the president of the united states. when you look at it, tim has some good poi
