How'd you know that?

Because a historically reliable NT tells me that Jesus existed, that he was crucified and that he was raised from the dead. This suggests that his claim to be God was legit. If so, then EVERYTHING he said becomes extremely important, and one of the things he talked about was the final exam.

Nnnnnnnope.

He still doesn't get it.

For the third time: I'll grant you a historically reliable NT, a Jesus that definitely existed and did by crucifixion and that the gospels are eyewitness accounts. Even if we stretch the credibility of the bible by that much, which is a shitload, it still doesn't prove anything.

Even if the disciples believed Jesus rose from the dead, it still doesn't prove anything.

Hell, even if Jesus rose from the fucking dead, it still doesn't prove anything.

The following leaps in your reasoning:

~the body was not found, ergo Jesus rose from the dead
~the disciples believed Jesus rose from the dead, ergo he rose from the dead
~Jesus rose from the dead, ergo god exists

are entirely baseless and unjustified. You conclude the last possible as necessary based on few 'facts', the authenticity of which is dubious and questionable to say the very least.

You are trying to present historical facts as evidence for (1)a biological phenomenon that is virtually impossible and (2)the existence of a being which should be easy to prove without resorting to anything of the sort, when they are neither all facts nor satisfactory or even appropriate type of evidence for either of your claims.

And NOWHERE does hell even enter the picture.

Watch out for that logical gap you're so eager to spring over, Randy. It's pretty fucking deep.
