Huh, changing the topic. Are you giving up on your debunked cosmological argument, now?
The explanation is that it didn't happen. If it did, I'd expect to see even more eyewitness testimony from all of "the multitudes" who allegedly witnessed said events. Instead, all we have are a bunch of books written several decades after Jesus' death by a bunch of apologists with an agenda. When someone makes a claim that involves walking on water, transmutation, and resurrection, I'm going to be skeptical. When those claims aren't corroborated by outside sources, and the claims contradict each other, I'm calling bullshit.
The burden of proof is on you.

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.
What evidence do you have for the resurrection? You have four contradictory claims. They could have all been explained also by either:
1) the body being stolen, or
2) the story being fabricated.
Given that your option involves unsubstantiated magic, I don't see any reason to assume it's true.
