Lot's of people believed they saw Elvis after he died too.

Sure. Except that you can go to Elvis' grave, open it up, and find a skeleton in his coffin. So far, no one has been convinced of these sightings to the pont that they are willing to dig him up, have they?

Additionally, Elvis' career spawned an entire industry of Elvis impersonators...people intentionally trying to look and sound like Elvis in order to capitalize on his fame. Not so with Jesus.

Elvis never claimed divinity. Jesus did.

Elvis did not promise to rise from the dead. Jesus did.

Elvis did not perform other supernatural miracles during his lifetime. Jesus did.

Hopefully, you weren't trying to make a serious argument, were you?
