Physicist, let me say that a belief in any religious system or religion has to require "faith" to those claims of the premises. So, today if you have martyrs for a paticular religion they are basing they're belief on faith, but the apostles were claiming to have witnessed actual events taking place and would not have martyred themselves unless those things had actually taken place.

So you're saying that the Apostles had no faith?
