MERGED: The Case for the Resurrection of Jesus Christ (Part 1) & (Part 2)

[His_Majesty]

So what we have here is a man who apparently spent three years travelling Judea, making earth-shattering claims and pronouncements and performing reality-bending miracles up to and including raising himself and others from the dead, and yet not a SINGLE word was written about him until around 50 years after his death...

There probably wasn't anything written about Jesus during his life because the vast majority of people during that time and location couldn't read or write...that may have had something to do with it. Second, the first epistle of Paul was written in the early to mid 50's AD, which would be around 20-25 years after the cross...so where you got this "50 years after" stuff from...dont know.
