I give you two of five on that: Jesus was crucified and Paul switched sides after having an experience of some sort. After that you must explain how those five facts prove the resurrection happened. That you have utterly failed to do.
When people find a body missing they don't usually jump to the conclusion it was raised from the dead and for very good reason. That the disciples claimed to have seen him is not particularly credible evidence since we no virtually nothing about them, their credulity, or their veracity. Saul's vision is a vision and proves nothing. If James changed his mind, he did. But that isn't evidence of the resurrection only Jame's state of mind. And your minimal facts don't explain why he changed his mind.
Now you want to add martyrs, eyewitness accounts, details about the exact circumstances of the five "facts" and who knows what else. But you don't have good evidence for those things and they are beyond the scope of the five facts.
What part of facts 2 & 4 do you doubt? And on the basis of what evidence?
