The Resurrection

[Mister Agenda]

All of this bringing up abiogenesis, amnesia therapy, and so on comes of as trying to show that Jesus’ resurrection was as least possible, or even plausible.

The conclusion I'm driving towards is something like:  You can say God doesn't exist and therefore he didn't resurrect anyone, but not that resurrections aren't possible therefore God doesn't exist.

I agree that resurrections being impossible doesn't prove the God of the New Testament doesn't exist; because the God of the New Testament explicitly can do things that are impossible. It must be a very rare line of argumentation because I've been around for a while, paying attention to the arguments that atheists make, and this is the first time I've heard THAT one.

But take heart, it's easily refuted as I did above...unless you abandon the idea that it couldn't have happened naturally. In THAT case, you have the burden of demonstrating that it COULD have happened naturally, and then why God still needs to be involved, unless you're willing to abandon that part.
