You cannot hold the position that life was able to emerge from a non-living environment, but reject that life is able to re-emerge in a structure with all the components of life present. You also can't hold the position that in the first case life emerged through an unguided process, but that it would not be able to emerge through a guided process.
Holding the first position seems to commit everyone to the second. Pessimism over how hard it is to do with today's technology seems beside the point.
I don't think a corpse reproduces the conditions of the Hadean era during which life first arose. But supposing life could spontaneously appear in a corpse (and survive the microbes already present that would surely find it a good meal), it would be a microorganism in a corpse, not a resurrection.
Wasn't the feasibility of doing it with technology your original point?
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
