On the other hand, nobody has ever, ever been able to confirm any of the miraculous claims in the bible, and we know that the majority of them could not have happened. If this is the comparison you want to be making, then my next question will be: what observations can you make about the bible to confirm it to be true?
The Romans could have ended the controversy over Jesus' resurrection by bringing his body out of the tomb and showing everybody. I wonder why they didn't do that.
They might not have put him in a tomb at all. Who knows? They might have thrown him into Gehenna, a valley that they kept constantly burning to destroy bodies, or just threw him in a pit with other criminals as they sometimes did.
