Why did the Jews lie about Jesus?

[Jehanne]

[Fake Messiah]

The authorities came up with an ingenious solution that kept everybody happy. It was the lack of a body and how the Xians were overheating that necessitated a response.

Overheating? You don't say how was this making everybody happy, and now what? I have to play the guessing game? Are you also going that road how Jews are corrupt businessmen who just think about the profit and how to make money, while good Christians just want to serve god to their good material free priests

If Jews didn't believe resurrection and were sure it was fake then why not let people talk about it and inspect it thoroughly to convince themselves it was false? But no matter how much you and Drich tiptoe around it that it all comes down that Jews are cons because they didn't and still don't want to admit that Jesus is messiah and that his life and resurrection were foretold in the OT (as Christians claim) and are still spreading those lies and they should supposedly know better because they follow Yahweh and should stick to his teachings. Therefore Jews love money more than god.

Aviezer Tucker on the argument for historicity-

 "The problem with the Synoptic Gospels as evidence for a historical Jesus from a Bayesian perspective is that the evidence that coheres does not seem to be independent, whereas the evidence that is independent does not seem to cohere."

There's an awfully simple explanation for that..one that does cohere with every independent explanation for the development of movements of any kind.

Christian apologists love to embrace their confirmation biases, while at the same time also embracing their congruence biases.

They didn't lie. They only proved how faithless they were all along. They were incredulous at the very thought that this man could have been the Messiah. The only explanation they thought up was that the body was stolen. Proving to be faithless in the sight of God.

Then again, who knows, maybe it was stolen and they didn't lie at all.

Still, if they didn't believe it why pay people to say your version of truth? Were they afraid that people would laugh to Roman soldiers if they walked around saying that story of resurrected Jesus so they wanted to save them from themselves? Or when they said this: "If this report gets to the governor, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble."

this is why I call you guys stupid... You take a reddit post as gospel truth without even checking!!!

Here is what 1 cor 15 actually says:

Yeah, let's hear what 1 Cor. 15 has to say: "5 and that he appeared to Cephas, and then to the Twelve."

I mean from the start you can see that Paul is lying because there were only eleven, Judas having died.

(95% of the crap you all believe about the bible is wrong, 1/2 truth, or an anamalgamation or compilation of several bible scraps smooched together to make up something new.

Hypocrite!!
