If you aren't convinced, then you don't believe. I can think of alot of meaningful things that just aren't happening.
Believing that jesus rose from the dead probably isn't a straight equivalence to confessing (or believing) that jesus is lord......but it's not as if it matters whether a person believes that, or indeed confesses that christ is lord......since it never happened.
For my own part, it doesn't actually matter to me whether or not a jew-on-a-stick rose from the dead...that's not enough for me to sign on as a christian. Christianity is abhorrent even if it were a true miracle story. Think about it, what if any pagan god actually did reanimate a corpse, as so many stories lay claim to....would you trip all over yourself to leave jesusism and join their stupid religions? Probably not...huh?
