Yeah, but I bet you could tell the ghost of Jesus from the ghost of Moses or Elijah. His apostles couldn't even determine it was him and they were around him nearly all the time.
It's more like the authors were "correcting" gnosticism, which was a thing by the time the books were written.
Where are the testimonies? The books weren't written by any of the women who supposedly saw him. Most important, the resurrected Jesus has crucifixion marks but none of the torture stuff. Why is that? Why couldn't they recognize someone they've been with for days?
They run from the cops a LOT for people who were willing to die. Even Jesus ran from angry mobs because, let's face it, HE didn't want to die either.
They could if they were executed by a government that simply didn't CARE.
It is an honest fact those three fought for leadership points with the congregation. They didn't get the fame they wanted while Jesus was alive because he derided them for not understanding him and screwing up even simple miracle missions, so they waited until he was dead to capitalize on their newfound attention.
I'm an RN and can think of a few possibilities.
But none of them were witnesses.
Who cares what the Quran said of it? Muhammad wasn't a witness either. And the contemporary sources note what Christians believed, not what actually happened.
Or an image? Sure, Judaism said you couldn't paint his picture, but Romans could. Where's the wanted poster?
With varying biases and goals and experience levels with the character in question.
We can see Nero's palace and other stuff he did. Got anything for biblical characters like Jesus or the apostles?
No, it shows the legal system was made up of supporters of capital punishment for religious terrorists, which is how Rome saw all of them.
Possibly an interesting medical bit, but most likely an attempt to extend the 15 minutes of fame that were up.
Yes. The Old Testament is from a set of writers trying to argue temple vs state and forming a national creation story as mandated by the monarchy, unfortunate enough to be selected to govern over a bunch of backstabbing tribes that didn't like each other. The New Testament is from a set of writers trying to argue Jews vs Gentiles and who should get top billing now that Jesus was gone. Both suffer from Michael Bay Syndrome, which says that if you can't figure out how to further the plot, just add explosions.
Harry Potter was written before the US and other countries were overrun by evil xenophobic hypocrites. Should we accept its prophetic nature?
Even if it happened on the same day, it isn't automatically reliable. The Bible is the Fox News of the ancient Middle Eastern world.
