For those who answered \"yes\"
If Jesus did not rise from the dead, how do you explain the following:
1. Jesus staked his entire ministry on the fact that he would rise from the dead. Why would he risk destroying the entire movement of Christianity on a false prophecy? 2. The tombs of other religious leaders are visited and worshipped by many each year. This is true of Buddha, Confusious, Muhammad, and Joseph Smith. Why is the same not true for Jesus? 3. The disciples hid following the arrest of Jesus for fear of being put to death. After the alleged resurrection, the disciples suddenly began to preach without fear of death. Why? |

"Fine, so anyone who believes Jesus was resurrected but not the son of god wouldn't be a christian." Yes, because rising from the dead is such a common thing. Let's assume that Jesus did infact "resurrect". If not God, whom? [/ QUOTE ] A different god or some advanced science beyond my comprehension. chez |

Why would you go so far out of your way to believe something so unreasonable? |

Re: Question for the Non-Christians
Christianity doesnt hinge on just one event. Suppose the resurrection did take place - is that statement assuming everything the bible said about it is true as well?
Ie: A book lists items A,B,C,D, and E to be true. We find out event B is true. Does it follow that items A,C,D, and E are also true? Not necessarily. |

Re: Question for the Non-Christians
"If I ever saw someone do all the things that Jesus supposedly did in the bible in such a way that even the Amazing Randi couldn't show was just a magic trick or some faith healer type show gimmick, then I would instantly fall on my knees and kiss his feet and proclaim him my savior. And if I could miraculously do all these things myself, I would expect any reasonable person, even Sklansky, to instantly discard any previous thoughts they had on the issue of faith and decide to worship me."
And of course I would. Religious people don't want to believe that for reasons already mentioned. |

Re: Question for the Non-Christians
"Ie:

True, but as is the case with the resurrection, if item B is false the truth of items A, C, D, and E don't really matter all that much. However, item B is so outrageous that if it is in fact true the likelihood of the other items being true increases greatly. |
