I mean, you may in fact be correct - I'm not for a nanosecond saying you are - but you're doing a piss-weak job of demonstrating that. That we now have the names is a good thing and what you've been asked to provide almost all along. It means, as I said, that we can assess their credentials and what you think they are saying.
Well, I don't know what more you want. These are believers and unbelievers alike, that have all devoted most of their lives to this stuff...and the majority of them happen to agree with me.
Don't know what more you want.

I meant Pascal's Wager....hey, I'm human

So I am browsing and not seeing any argument or evidence for the resurrection of Jesus. Just him saying "I provided good evidence he existed!" while everyone else says no he didn't.
Another person that lacks simple reading comprehension skills...I guess you should have read more than just six pages, because if you had, you would have saw that you aren't the only person that lacks those particular skills...there are others on here just like you...that failed to comprehend what "Part 1" means...and that this post was to set the foundation up for the bigger conclusion of the Resurrection as a whole.

There were several such figures who started cults in the area at the time. I think that Paul used one of these as the basis for what we today call Christianity.
Welcome to the majority party.

We will get there in small steps... not leaps, and bounds.
