Proving The Resurrection By the Minimal Facts Approach

[robvalue]

@All

I wonder

Everyone is always trying to desperately prove stuff about Jesus and that. Which is some 2000 years ago now. What's been going on in the meantime? If that's the most recent activity, even if he could do magic tricks, it seems to have drifted into obscurity now along with his daddy.

All we've ever had since then are fallacious arguments about some event or the existence of something proving not just god, but a special story book god.

This event/object is amazing and hard to understand! I can't think of any other way it could happen except god! [Argument from incredulity]

Well, can you prove it was anything other than god? [Argument from ignorance]

See? It was god. [Unsupported assertion]

And not just any god, my god. The one in this book I carry around. [Non sequitur]. Not any of those other made up gods. [Special pleading]

True stuff doesn't need all this dishonesty and broken logic. And atheists shouldn't be so amazingly gifted at being able to block out the apparent existence of god in our face day in day out. How did we get so powerful? We have god on ignore! How pathetic must he be?

I know it's hard to hear, but you've been had me old chinas. It has to be the longest lasting, most elaborate and most damaging con of all time.

Oh yes. Personal experiences, I nearly forgot those. What is more likely:

(a) The grand daddy boss and creator of the entire expanse of the whole universe comes to visit not just our little insignificant planet, but individual bits of stuff moving around on it. It has a chat with them or gives them some freaky experience, then fucks off again, being very careful that there is no verifiable evidence and no way to demonstrate it happened at all.

Or:

(b) Whoops, human minds are extremely fallible. Probably a glitch, a brain malfunction which fed off the mythology that has been surrounding us since we were born. It's almost always the local mythology, isn't it?

OK, dismissed. You can go home now. I'm sorry it was a bit harsh today, it's some tough love

God is quite welcome to explode my head and/or delete this message in order to shut me up or prove me wrong.
