A plot hole in the Bible. It reminds me of this video when catholic priest was confronted with another giant plot hole in the Bible
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

LOL, he's sure cute, but about as sharp as liver!
I'd love to see him twist and squirm on these gems:
*on the 3rd day, who went to the tomb? Mary Magdalene by her lonesome, or her with a group of women ?
*did they see one man in the tomb ? two men ? or 2 angels ?
*was the Field of Blood so named because it was bought with blood money, or because Judas exploded on it and made a bloody mess?
*was Jesus crucified at 9 in the morning, or after noon ?
*did Judas return the 30 pieces of silver as Matthew reports, or not as reported in Acts ?
*John says Jesus carried his cross all the way, Mark says Simon of Cyrene carried it partway
*did the curtain in the temple rip in half before Jesus died as Luke reports or after He died as Mark reports
As we all know, God is one touchy son of a biscuit, it is VITALLY important any candidate for Salvation© get squared away on the exactly correct version of Jesus BEFORE they die. or they are going to burn burn burn in the lake of fire, the lake of fire !
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Yeah, who else to witness a resurrection but a mentally ill woman. If you remember Mary Magdalene had been possessed by "seven devils." She had been a madwoman or, in any case, seriously disturbed, and her behavior might have remained erratic enough to give her the reputation of being "touched." Even if she had shown marked improvement under Jesus' influence, the shock of the arrest, trial and crucifixion might well have unhinged her once more and made her an easy target for hallucination.
Even the disciples didn't believe her for some time.
There would come tales of Jesus having appeared to this disciple or that, under such circumstances or others, and a number of them would be recorded in the gospels when these came to be written. But all might conceivably have rested entirely upon the word of one witness, Mary Magdalene.

Does denying Jesus cured her help your cause there ?

I've often thought the same thing. Mary is the one common denominator in these stories.

Well yeah. I mean for starters it was a wrong diagnosis: she didn't have devils but mental illness and exorcism he performed is a debunked pseudo medicine like homeopathy or chiropractic or phrenology - these things never cured anyone.

Who said Jesus couldn't write or didn't?
According to John 8 Jesus wrote enough in the sand to shut the pharisees up.
So why didn't he write a gospel?
His ministry was 3 years from start to finish, when do you think he would have done this? Then with what writting stock, and on who's authority? Authority was key here as it ensured preservation in a scriptoium/library. as you can imagine papyrus was at best delicate if not handeled properly. Jesus was a rouge authority who was hated by the governement and religion which were the only two authroity who would ensure proper care and transfer of documented materials. Even if Christ's writtings were accepted by the jews and held in their scriptorum, Rome in around 70AD burned the temple and it's scriptorums.
So again just because we do not have the gospel of Christ doesn't mean Jesus wrote nothing down... Read the 4 gospels we do have, some of it was from the first person perspective/Christ talking to God, Christ talking to the Devil/being tempted when no one else was around.

There aren't enough face-palms in the world for this.
