Yes, brilliant Jor. Good simple analysis.
It's common knowledge that the letters of Paul predate the Gospels. The earliest Gospel, Mark, has been dated to approximately 70 years after Jesus' death. Did you know that in the Codex Sinaiticus, the oldest "complete" New Testament (it actually contains two additional books), the "Gospels" do not include any description of the Resurrection?
Incorrect.
The earliest gospel, Mark, dates to AD 70 (conservatively); you can date it to AD 50 if you work through a bit of reasoning.
70 years after AD 33 would place Mark around AD 103; this is much too late.
