" take it you missed that whole resurrection from the dead thing "
Yes I did - so did you, as far as beign a witness to it.
The burden of proving that this event (Resurrection) took place is on you, not me. The fact that you can not (nor could anyone, save Jesus himself, since noone witnessed the event when it happened) makes the Resurrection part of 'Faith', and not part of a provable theory of science, which relies on more than word of mouth and passed-down stories.
Apologies for the multiple clauses in that last sentence. Ugh.
So we need to throw out all histroy books that were written before the last two generations?
Jesus Christ impacted the world more than any other person in history. The life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ is the most documented event in history. If you can find a better documented person, I would like to know about them.
Look into it if you have some time.
