If you can believe such abject nonsense then I don't understand why you can't believe in OT miracles. They are no sillier than what you profess.
You still haven't dealt with Matthew's zombies wandering around Jerusalem. Is that one that even you can't rationalize?
Minimalist this thread is 12 pages long sorry if i couldn't have the time to answer everything.
However if Jesus can be resurrected, i do not see why the bodies of saints could not be reanimated as well. Yes it is hard to believe but the resurrection is THE most important event in christianity. God rarely shows his power openly, maybe because he wants us to chose our own faiths. But for this event he showed the extent of his power and impressed the people of Jerusalem. Of course this is just rationalization, my point of vue, I cannot know what God thinks.
About the Old Testament, i already said it is not the same thing as the NT at all. It is a book of fairy tales, nothing more, and that is why i reject it. However the Gospels are, to me, a description of the life and death of the Son of God. I cannot prove it is since it happened 2000 years ago. No one will ever be able to definitely prove God exists because all historical evidence is relative.
