There is, of course, no conclusive, CSI-type evidence that proves Christ's resurrection. But consider the following:
Those who felt threatened by Christ's resurrection (Jewish leadership, Roman authorities) were unable to produce a body to disprove the resurrection of Christ.
The fact that women are the first to find the empty tomb actually lends some credibility to the story. A concocted story from first-century Judaea would not have placed women (who were not considererd reliable witnesses and who did not even have the right to testify in court) in such a prominent position in the story, because it would have made the story less believeable among contemporaries.
Many people who knew Christ during his lifetime and who had witnessed his death sure didn't act like their rabbi was dead and gone. On the contrary, Jesus's disciples behaved as though they KNEW that he was not dead - they risked their lives preaching the Good News. Why would they all have done that if they knew it was a lie? What's the point of dying for something you know to be untrue?
Does any of this prove that Jesus was resurrected? No - and that proof will never be available. The resurrection was, is, and always will be a matter of faith. These are just a few thoughts to consider as you make your reasoned faith-judgment.

Historically the tomb was empty and even believers doubted that he was truelly allive. Even Thomas had to see His hands to believe.

We of course have no physical proof.

science has no rules either, they change daily.
