Christians, including Mormons, believe in the divinity of Christ, the Virgin Birth, his resurrection, and salvation through his atonement. Those are supernatural, not “rational,” matters that defy understanding through any means other than faith.

OK. Let's say we have a person who has been declared clinically dead. The 50 best docs in the world said so. Tests of every kind were run. He was buried. He came alive three days later.

So it's "irrational" if we all believe that person who's walking around is "alive?"

If all 50 docs say, "Pay no attention to that body wandering around here." We're just to mindlessly mumble what the Wizards of Medical Oz tell us and think, "I'm an irrational believer if I concede He's alive?"

Really?
