Zen, you're trolling. I said I had evidence for the Resurrection: the Gospel accounts plus Acts of the Apostles. That said, I didn't make the claim that I can prove it with evidence. I said there's enough evidence to prove Jesus died on a cross.
Stop trolling.
And Min is just repeating the same bullshit Evan Powell came up with in "The Unfinished Gospel" - which is based on no tangible evidence at all. He cites circumstantial evidence as his primary evidence: "not a single Greco-Roman writer heard anything about any of it" and even then he lies. What his statement should read is that we don't have surviving written records by Greco-Roman - so what? Surviving texts from that period in history that we have today are COPIES, we don't have any originals, so to get contemporary records from Romans you would expect to find 6th-8th century copies of the work (yes that's right 6th-8th century is were you would look for copies). Anything that was written at the time has long since turned to dust. His expectations are unrealistic and furthermore even if he had the 6th-8th century texts he wouldn't accept them and would claim they were tampered with, just like how the other troll in this thread disputes every word said about Jesus in Antiquities of the Jews.

"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
