Proving The Resurrection By the Minimal Facts Approach

This is what we call begging the question.

Who says any such thing? I say it is an unlikely claim for which truly pitiful evidence is offered. There is better evidence for alien abductions, esp, and Joseph Smith's golden tablets. And there's for from sufficient evidence far any of those things.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
