Even if Jesus rising from dead was somehow “possible” because of supernatural forces, that would still have to consider other religions such as if Muhammad really flew on a winged horse to heaven by said supernatural forces.

Without God, there is no reason to do any good things that Jesus recommends. All He said is all predicated upon the existence of God, a judge who sees when no one is around, is 100% correct, Made you, and will dole out great suffering to evil. There is no replacement for that. Without God, evil is fine so long as you do not get caught.

No matter what, Science constantly PROVES he is VERY MUCH REAL and his son Jesus's teaching absolutely work for the benefit of society

God does not have to be based on any religion. You can disagree with the proof claims of any religion and still believe in god. Simply put if there is no god then there is no purpose to your life or purpose of this universe

I would say the theory is that he was presumed dead at least at his deathbed, and Mary Magdalene and a Roman guard patched him up and smuggled him away. Miraculously he lived and had a new life.🧐🤔🤷🏻‍♂️ I believe there’s more to the Story in the books as opposed to the Holy that we prayed to🤔🤔😎

He looks like he smells bad. And is 4'11" and acts like 6'4"

The Bible isn’t fiction
It’s historically accurate
Infact the the resurrection and the gospels are the most accurate books in history

[shuraygh-suwaydabrahams]

Hele klomp kak with these modern philosophers

[Justin-xsyo]

Ummm, “laws of logic” not being broken from rising from the dead?? You are shitting me right? All logic knows that’s not a thing. 🤦‍♂️

You believe in Jesus because people as children told you about him. You believe in Jesus over any over religious god, because of a confirmation bias with most of your countries being America, Britain, Canada and Australia. You believe in Jesus-God because you have done bad things, had bad lives, and the moment some of that starts to change or catch up with you, you think "it must be God, he is forgiving me." You believe in Jesus-God despite never having seen him, and despite the fact that his presence was introduced during a time of fake prophets and medieval philosophy, as well as there being hundreds of other men who preached the same content as Jesus.

I don't believe in God, because my brain will not conform to an ideology transcribed from an ancient fairy tale, with no solid proof behind it. And certainly not in a world with this much evil. And that won't change when people say "God gave us free will!"
Because he didn't. We conform to the government and culture. And that statement contradicts that God will help you, if you also say that he gave us free will and will not intervene. Yet "Divine intervention" is also a concept preached by Christians and Catholics.

There is nothing wrong with having Faith. Not everything needs to be proven and to have science behind it. But there must be logic. And there is no logical reason to have Faith in a phenomenon such as Jesus. The concept of A God could be likely when you put the universe to scale. But Jesus Christ/God as depicted in the bible, is nothing more than a fairy tale.

And this entire statement is coming from someone who use to believe in him.

Dude can't make his argument with science - science leaves enough space for wriggling itself out of loopholes

[geomonabe]

Every religion claims their story to be true. Jesus didn't rise from death, no prophet went to heaven on wings of horses, nothing lives forever and the universe is not 6000 years old.

Move over, God; Yui Ikari is the new Kami-sama.

How is it logical to rise from the dead? 😂
