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

[JonDarbyXIII]

You remembered the bombing tho...they remembered the Resurrection tho. You don't have to remember every little detail, but the jest of it was there was a bombing in OKC.

The stories of the resurrection, however, show a distinct evolution as they were subject to embellishment. The earliest gospel (Mark) doesn't mention a resurrection at all (at least not in its earliest form). From there, the stories get grander and grander until we get to John (60-70 years later) wherein Jesus is the devine poobah who pops out of the tomb, shouting 'ta dah!'

That is you..everyone is different...Paul remembered, you didn't.

Paul remembered the resurrection? Interesting concept since he wasn't there and never even knew Jesus

You have a shitty memory, apparently.

Or maybe you just missed the entire point that memory is entirely subjective.

True, I gotcha...but the main idea is that there was a bombing in OKC...no one is disputing that fact...and likewise; the main idea was that Jesus Resurrected, and no one is disputing that..at least, not the early church.

Actually, the early church was filled will all sorts of 'heresies' that there was no resurrection or that it was only a spiritual resurrection. etc. The resurrection-winners were just the ones who were most successful at kicking the shit out of the others.
