If you have two suggested phenomena, and:
1. For the first, you have otherwise sane witnesses attesting that they've experienced it, despite suffering from such attestation
2. For the second, you have no such witnesses
The first is better supported than the second. You can choose not to believe either if you like, but to claim that there's no difference is ridiculous.
No, once again, we have *stories* of 'sane witnesses', but no writings from those witnesses. NONE of the gospels were written by the claimed authors. Paul never interacted with Jesus. And it is very far from clear that there was any resurrection story initially (before Paul).
