What other miracles have scientific explanations? Did gravity boots allow Jesus to walk on water? Was he able to feed the multitude with a Star Trek-type replicator? If you’re going to look for a natural or technological process to explicate one miracle, why not all of them?

My goal was simply to persuade people of the possibility: To go from thinking it was impossible, to a more moderate position that's open to the possibility. Thats it. And I picked the resurrection because it seemed like a harder proposition for me to defend than merely walking on water. I couldn't have predicted from the outset that you would think I was going easy on myself for tackling the resurrection rather than the turning of water into wine lol.
