Proving The Resurrection By the Minimal Facts Approach
#14
RE: Proving The Resurrection By the Minimal Facts Approach
I may as well mention (again) that even if Jesus came back to life somehow, that tells us nothing about how or why; and lends no credence to any of his words or supernatural claims about himself. It would just be a very unusual event which we sadly can't investigate. So to a sceptic, ressurection does not lead to Christianity being true.

The magician who just made you think a card disappeared doesn't get to tell you he teleported the card with his mind because you don't have another explanation. Even if he told you beforehand that is how it is done. I believe this is the "truth by cool tricks" fallacy. He still has to provide evidence for his claimed method, not just the predicted result.
Feel free to send me a private message.
