The Minimal Facts are:

1. Jesus died by crucifixion
2. Jesus' disciples believed that He rose and appeared to them
3. Saul, the persecutor of the Church, was suddenly changed
4. James, the skeptical brother of Jesus, was suddenly changed
5. Jesus' tomb was found to be empty

Do you have a theory about what happened that accounts for all five?

If so, we need to give it careful consideration. Thanks.

Not one of those things is a fact, let alone a minimal one, so I don't need a "theory" about even one. Even if I gave over to all of them as facts, they wouldn't prove anything about the Christ being god. I hope the circle will close itself off when I say you haven't even proven Christ existed, let alone your assertion that he was crucified to begin with, but luckily my hope isn't too great. You're welcome.
