Now that we have that out of the way...
If you have any opposing arguments you wish to make regarding any of the material I have presented, please make your case in response to the appropriate post(s):
Post 1 - My OP
Post 65 - Fact 1: Jesus died by crucifixion
Post 148 - Fact 2: Jesus' disciples believed that He rose and appeared to them
Post 283 - Fact 3: Paul, the enemy of the Church, was suddenly converted
Post 460 - Fact 4: James, the skeptical brother of Jesus, was suddenly converted.
Coming Soon - Fact 5: Jesus' tomb was found to be empty
Thanks.
Some interesting stuff I had never thought of before, Randy. Thanks!
It demonstrates nothing. Even if all five points are to be granted -- not that I do, mind you, but for the sake of argument -- it is still a logical leap to argue that they demonstrate the truth of any resurrection.
According to the thread title, that is Randy's goal here. You may not have thought about this stuff before, but plenty of others have, and not one has found a way from any one of those points to any resurrection.
Certainly your god can find a better defender than this half-baked charlatan who cannot string together a cogent line of reason.
