The lawyer in the Guinness World Records who won 400 cases in a row said the best evidential case he has ever seen was for the life, death, burial, resurrection and deity of Jesus. So in terms of evidence, God has provided the best proof we could ever reasonably ask for.
In fact, you nor I can even come up with better evidence for Jesus being God. That's powerful.
Actually if we claim "common sense" then we would listen to your account, and theirs, to Jesus rising. We have to take it into account in order to be true to ourselves. But in all fairness, you would have to listen to our stance on the probability it did not happen with the same intentions. Those being to find the truth to the best of our ability. You in the name of your Christ and ours in the name of whatever we give it. Both would converge on the same point anyway.
You, in the name of your Christ, should be reasonably expected to follow your rules too. And his. When you are not locked into a book, then you become free to use "proper" weight to observations seen and unseen. This interpretation would be at least, reasonable. would you be willing to give it a go? This game of "truth the best we can?" You have to understand that jesus would welcome your questions and doubt about him if he is what you claim he is that is.
They killed him for playing this game ya know,

actually, this is not quite true. he turned something into nothing then back into something. Unless of course he did not follow the standard model. Which I doubt.
Let's not butcher the truth like MD is.
