Did you do your own research?

Question

Wednesday, we had a very challenging, upbeat discussion about the resurection. Some got upset with me, others agreed. I claimed that the resurection of Jesus has been proved scientifically to be true. Some of you got very upset. But I challenged you to do some research on your own because I was not going to get into polemics with anyone. So, take a deep breath and engage in a very intelligent debate. What do you think?

Answer 1

I missed the previous 'discussion' but what research could that be? Unless we were present to see the dead Jesus get up and walk, how do we really know? I am not saying it happened and I am not saying it didn't happen. It is immaterial to my life.

Answer 2

There isn't even any sound scientific evidence that Jesus even existed (it seems quite probable that the character "Jesus" was an amalgam of a number of "charismatics" circulating about that time), so how can you claim scientific evidence of the Resurrection? That's not to say he didn't exist, but there is scant evidence he did! The written accounts of his existence weren't created until decades after his death.

People are no different today than they were 2000 years ago, really. Do you believe everything you read in the newspaper concerning events that happened 40 or 50 or 60 years ago? How accurate/spun/sanitized are those reports?

Answer 3

What scientist proved it?Must have been a christian scientist,because a discovery like that would have at least been in National Geographic.Kinda just like they found Noah's ark,the holy grail,and all the other self proclaimed Jesus artifacts.Must be why the Vatican keeps them hidden from the world.Christians have been trying to PROVE the existance of their god for centuries.Must be why they worked so hard to silence anyone who got in their way"Spanish Inquistion"Crusades"Intolerance" But,I guess if you believe the way they did years ago,the earth is still flat,the sun revolves around the Earth,and if you pray hard enough,you can walk out on a highway and not get hurt.Christians have changed their religion to suit their needs ever since the Jews thought it up.And if someone questions too hard,well lets stone them,or hang them or burn them at the stake.Oh and don't forget,clean their wallet out before you do,preacher needs a new cadillac.Keep praying,maybe Jesus will hurry up and get you off this dismal rock.Me personally,I need no bible or church or preacher to make my life happy,I am happy and content,and I get to help people in need without the benefit of holding a bible over their head to make them think the way I do.I want everyone to believe in what they wish and be good people for doing it.The earth and what lives on it should be our top priority,not what we can take from others.

Answer 4

You have posted this a lot and yet still have not offered where you get the scientific proof. Could that be because you have none and are just trying to start arguments. Nobody has been upset yet, just curious and questioning what the proof is.

Answer 5

You are a manipulating conman. You said "Some got upset with me, others agreed"

You left out that some disagreed with you, some could care less, and many other reactions. I am sure agreeing with you or getting upset with you weren't the only two reactions you got unless you were very rude. And being rude, is not the best way to encourage people to believe in your mythology.

Answer 6

Resurection proven scientiically? I sure would like to hear that.
Other question is why would one try to prove the resuraction when the Gospels clearly tell us Jesus never died on the cross?

Answer 7

On Polls & Surveys, it does not rather count selection... it relatively is extra relaxing to get spontaneous solutions with out having any learn accomplished: a seem into the human strategies! On different extreme categories, it relatively is extra advantageous to accomplish a splash learn till now and seek for further help as a results of fact there are extra knowledgeable human beings here on Y!A... so bypass away it to them...

Answer 8

how can u prove scientifically that it happened? lol thats like proving beyond a doubt there are ghosts. sorry i havent seen proof of either. (and dont say the lack of being able to find and identify his body is why). Just the same you cant scientifically prove God exists either. (not trying to be rude or anything)

Answer 9

In one of my college classes we studied the resurrection and the pro's and con's of the evidence. The historical evidence was clear to me-if you believe in Julius Caesar, Homer, Alexander the Great or any other historical figure-then you can not deny the evidence of the resurrection. Basically all historical evidence we have on every subject would have to be denied if the resurrection was denied.

Answer 10

Please dont get me wrong but ...

What are you going to Achieve by Proving that Jesus Lived after the death of His Body ??

Bhagavad Gita Says that the Soul never dies, even after the death of the Body and they simply Pass on to next Body... That is true for every one even the animals..
There are even many Ghosts who are seen even after their Death ??

This is not the Proper way to represent Such a great Personality as Jesus ..Please don't waste your Time...

Jesus should not Worshiped for his Miracles but for his Teachings that lead one to God...

There are many Yogis in India who do many such miracles but the end result is that they cant even leave their Cigarette.. what to speak of leaving Sinful Activities ...
