How did the myth of Jesus' resurrection originate?

[Drich]

Christians will protest that no one would make up the story of the resurrection, but they do in fact come up with all sorts of fictional details to promote their faith. To take a few trivial cases, I have received an email which presents the young Albert Einstein as a defender of the Christian faith against his atheistic professor although Einstein was a non-observant Jew who explicitly disavowed any belief in a personal God. Or there is Lady Hope's well-known story of Charles Darwin's deathbed reversion to Christianity, although Darwin's children say she was nowhere near the great scientist in his last years.

Xtians are famed liars, X-P.

and athiest aren't?

This is stupid "Why would they die for a lie"?

You can truly believe in something and STILL BE WRONG.

Look at what they (The Apstoles) 'truly believed' and what they died for.

Their deaths centered around their claims to have witnessed all of the stuff (and more) that has been written in the bible. They did not die for faith, they died because they would not recant their claims of Christ deity.
