Why don't we know the date Jesus rose up from the dead?

Okay, I have read the article on wikipedia and my conclusion is that the date of Jesus death like all other things Christian is based on nothing more than speculation of an fictional event that never happened. All of the dates so far have been derived from the gospels themselves which in my opinion are not a reliable source of information. Although they have tried to verify the events that the bible claims occurred after Jesus alleged death, this proves nothing. It only proves that if true there was an solar/lunar eclipse and earthquake on that day but it doesn't prove that Jesus was on the cross. The biblical account states that it was dark for about three hours but the article states that the lunar eclipse only lasted 30 minutes. There is alot of symbolism in the story itself indicating to me that this is a fictional event based on oral traditions and myths. It seems to me that the NT authors were trying to tie this fictional event with true events relevant to the environment in which this alleged event occurred.
