As it happens, even if Jesus really did ressurect, that proves nothing about how he resurrected, why or that God exists. It's just a strange phenomenon. The fact that he gave an explanation doesn't make it true, any more than someone doing a magic trick giving the crowd an "explanation" makes it true.

So even if I did believe he came back from the dead, that's all I'm believing. He doesn't get a free pass to just say whatever he likes because he did something cool and it's all just true.
