Jesus' resurrection from the dead.
no resurrection = no Christianity

Anyone can claim to be the Son of God, but Jesus said He will show one sign and that was that He would be raised from the dead 3 days after He was killed. Jesus appeared to the disciples as well as hundreds of others in His resurrected form, and His followers went from scared to bold in their faith. why? because they KNEW everything He said was true because Jesus proved it by His resurrection.

As you know, many Christians died for their faith in Jesus Christ; I refuse to believe that they were defending a lie.  I believe that Jesus was raised from the dead and that life everlasting is through Him.

Sooo...you're claiming that if the resurrection didn't really happen, Christianity never would have started, right?


So by the same logic, if the Buddha had never gained enlightenment, Buddhism would never have started, and that's why people believe in Buddhism and are willing to die for it. Buddhism, therefore, must be true.


Also, if Mohammed didn't really receive a message from Allah, the Quran wouldn't have been written, so I guess that proves the Quran is true, too, right?


Are you seeing the problem here? You think Buddhism is a lie, and yet there are those willing to die in the name of Buddhism. You think Islam is a lie, and yet there are those willing to die for Islam. You aren't convinced that other people's religions are true just because people are willing to die for them, so why should we accept your religion just because people are willing to die for it? You wouldn't accept your argument if another religion used it, so why should we accept that argument from you?
