Quote:with the Sadducees denying and the Pharisees affirming it.
Which ought to be another telltale blow against bible bullshit if you stop to think about it....and xtians never stop to think about anything. It always seems to be the "pharisees" who are the bad guys in the gospel narratives but with their belief in bodily resurrection they would seem to be more ally than enemy of jesus and his bullshit story.
Whereas the sadducees, who not only denounced the idea of resurrection but also were in charge of running the temple seem to be ignored as a group.
Anyone wish to hazard a guess about why that might be?
