So is it 3 days, 72 hours, after three days, on the third day, or after two sabbaths?

in the crazy mishmash of conflicting stories among the sources that you accept, which is right?

Or is it a crazy mishmash of conflicting stories because noone knows, and people competed to tell the most outlandish stories.

Rather like the holy relic salesmen when Helena, Constantine’s mother came to give official imprimatur on the local cult?

My favorite is when a woman had a headache, and they dug up three crosses. Each in turn was applied to the woman, and the true cross was selected, because it was after that one that she felt better.

If you believe that whopper, well, you will believe that Obamacare guarantees free blue cheese with every meal.

You’re attempting to deflect from the simple historical issue of whether Jesus claimed to be equal with God, which even his enemies acknowledged at the time.

I know you have already posted you reject the historicity of the claim, but it is so outlandish, so irrational, and so ridiculous that one needs to ask again how you can hold such a position which throws all the rest of recorded history into the trash bin.

Would you accept integers only; or would irrationals also be ok?
