In what way is the Resurrection the best explanation?

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

But Jesus' missing corpse is not 'an explicitly supernatural event'.  Bodies go missing for all sorts of reasons.  Why is being attempted is a possible explanation as to how an explicitly natural event might be perceived by a gaggle of superstitious, semi-literate religious fanatics to have been supernatural.  Happens a lot.

It is just as naturalistic, and in my opinion likely to be much closer to more of the truth,  to say somewhere along its descent some of this gaggle of superstitious , semi-literate religious fanatics knew, through contact and trial and error, what would impress their fellow superstitious, semi-literate fanatics, and manufactured bullshit to suit the purpose.

Not an unreasonable position.  Supernatural explanations are only to be preferred when all possible naturalistic explanations are eliminated.  In the case of Jesus, that's not happened (nor is it likely to).
