It also doesn't work that way. You need corroborating evidence. And there's very little. Most of it is in the form of, "This is what these people in the ancient middle east actually believed, and here's some actual history providing context for some of the oddities/events/whatever." There is nothing at all that suggests that the resurrection actually happened. Nothing at all to suggest divinity in action. Except in your bible.All I want is corroborating evidence from sciences for dead people resurrecting. Ex. scientists recreating the circumstances and resurrecting people who have been dead for days. That or modern unbiased researchers seeing dead people resurrecting after days on a fairly regular basis. That would make a resurrection in ancient times more likely.
He says the Christian god did it, which is another way of saying a resurrection happened. It's not a matter of god or not god, it's resurrection happened or not (theistic example, a god didn't do it because it didn't get done in the first place).
I'm confused.
You atheists are quick to point out that there are other accounts of other people coming back to life...I think the last poster cited something in India, IIRC.
So, if there are numerous instances of resurrections occurring, why would Jesus' resurrection be so difficult to accept?
Or are you going to tell all these other forum members to sit down and be quiet?
'Cause y'all can't have it both ways...
