The swoon theory is so ludicrous as to be comedy.
We are to believe that Jesus, whipped by the Romans as they did before an execution, who had his bread plucked out, who had a crown of thorns pressed into his head, who suffered tremendous blood and fluid loss from aforementioned treatment, who then had whatever he was wearing that most likely adhered to his skin as the blood dried, ripped off his body, reopening the wounds, having had dirty, nails driven into his hands and feet, with all the possibility of tetanus that entails, whose joints were likely dislocated from the cross being dropped into the ground, who could hardly breathe for the time hanging naked in the air, with no food, little water, and a spear trust into his side that poured out the precious little remaining blood and water his body contained (another tetanus site), merely *passed out* from this mistreatment and revived in the coolness of the tomb.
Not considering that he would have long before gone into shock, would likely be infected with massive infections, and suffered fluid loss that would have been near impossible to replace.
Anyone in such condition would be a challenge for the most advanced medical care ICU to keep alive today. In those days? You have got to be kidding me.
Only a God hating atheist, desperate beyond reason to *prove* that the resurrection could be explained away some other way, could even begin to think that that scenario would even be remotely credible.
For all atheists laud themselves for their mental prowess and deride others for believing fairy tales, fantasy, folklore, and superstition, they make such idiots of themselves presenting that scenario as a feasible alternative to an actual resurrection.
What the atheists fail to see is that for Jesus to have survived the crucifixion enough to have only *swooned* and revive with no medical attention, get out of the tomb, past the Roman guard and walk though the streets of Jerusalem looking well enough to be considered risen, would be every bit as much a miracle as the resurrection. All the atheists are doing is asking people to believe their miracle instead of Scripture's.
bread plucked out = BEARD plucked out
*sigh*....
Matthew 28:11-15
While the women were on their way, some of the guards went into the city and reported to the chief priests everything that had happened.
When the chief priests had met with the elders and devised a plan, they gave the soldiers a large sum of money, telling them, “You are to say, ‘His disciples came during the night and stole him away while we were asleep.’ If this report gets to the governor, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.”
So the soldiers took the money and did as they were instructed. And this story has been widely circulated among the Jews to this very day.
Solomon nailed it: There's nothing new under the sun.
The "swoon theory" was first popularized and promoted by Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, the founder of the Amadiyya sect of islam, and an all-round nut. Atheists promote this theory too, perhaps without realizing where it comes from, because they are essentally stupid fellow travellers and useful idiots, ready and willing to repeat any sort of slander against Christianity. Here again you see the comfortable cooperation between atheists and islam. Ghulam Ahmad was also the source and popularizer of the "Jesus went to India" theory.
