Why do people wrap themselves with dynamite and blow themselves to smithereens for allah?
Why did otherwise intelligent Japanese pilots crash their planes into American ships?
People do lots of stupid stuff. Xtians merely did it earlier than the Arabs and the Japs.
They did that for what they THOUGHT was true, not for something they would have known was false.
Also, If the resurrection of Jesus didn't happen and the Jews or Romans stole the body, they would have produced it and parade it around Jerusalem and we wouldn't have even heard of Him, and Christianity would have died on the spot. If the disciples stole the body, they would have known it was a lie as stated in my above post and would NOT have been willing to be martyred.
