Someone stole the body!

[Redbeard The Pink]

Sorry, Drickleberry, but that still doesn't count for several possibilities.


For one, the body might not have made it to the tomb because the Romans just decided to pitch it instead of handing it over to Joseph of Aramathea. It could have been stolen by someone who wasn't a follower. It could have been stolen by a minor follower who didn't tell anyone else.


Or maybe it's just a story. Or 4 stories that differ from each other wildly, especially when we get to the important part (the ending).

That's ok 'S-Phinxter' Get? Pinkster/sphincter=S-Phinkster

Ummm...I think I broke Drich, you guys. My bad.

There's a problem with your objection. The Prophesy Christ himself uttered before is death concerning his resurrection.

A missing body would indicate a resurrected Christ. A contained body, say one placed in a cave/tomb with a big rock and a roman seal with guards would tend to undermine any claims of resurrection as the romans would be able to produce a body on demand.

Really, bro? You're telling me that because Jesus says (in this story of yours) that his tomb would be empty, then later on (in the same story) he dies and his tomb is found empty, that means the story is true and he really rose from the dead?


Gosh...how could Jesus possibly have predicted that? It's almost as if the author already knew the ending of the story...




That argument is entirely circular, by the way. A story that has consistent internal details can still be fiction. To establish it as nonfiction, you'd need evidence to corroborate the story itself.
