What do you base your claim here?


According to your previous arguments would your certainty here make this an unfalsifiable claim.  Because especially for those at the time, and even now, it would seem that this is falsifiable.   Keep in mind with your arguments here, that if it is not falsifiable, it's not really able to be shown to be true either.  I think you need to think through your arguments a bit more, and make them more consistent.

I used the word "certain" for a reason.  If Jesus would appear to me now, corporeally, then, maybe, I would change my mind.  What would it take for you to change your mind, to believe that Jesus did not rise from the dead?

You said that it is both a fact and that you are certain that it is false.  Would you agree that this is a falsifiable claim then? 
(note: This isn't about the establishing the truth or falseness of Jesus's resurrection.  It is about your logic and reasoning and false premises.)
