Worshipers pray around a marble slab, where Jesus was laid after he was taken down from the cross, at the only entrance to the Church of the Holy Sepulchure June 21, home to what the faithful believe was the site of Jesus Christ's crucifixion and burial. Uri Mor, an official at Israel's Religious Affairs ministry, has warned that Christianity's holiest shrine in Jerusalem could become a millennium inferno for pilgrims expected to flock to the Holy Land by the millions next year. He said that the only entrance which remains open after centuries of inter-Church dispute is not enough to suffice the church which can accomodate more than 15,000 people and that unless more openings were punched in the 11th century edifice, even a small fire could claim many lives, but disputes between rival branches of Christianity that share the cavernous church had prevented Israeli authorities from making the required structural changes.
