Chris: glad you found the Leithart article refreshing. I found that it hit the right notes…

As for Korean churches, well, good luck with finding something (relatively) cringe-free!

After reading that article from Leithart, i feel refreshed. I feared going to any type of sermon out here for Easter Sunday, and after reading your’s and Ry’s posts throughout holy week, I feel like going would have made me more frustrated. Yes, I’m unfairly assuming what the service would have been like, and I will eventually get out and check out a Korean church… but I like your thoughts, and the thoughts that you point to.

John, I admire your persistence, but there is nothing in any of those links that I have not read before. Why I believe this is a valid question, but one which I will not answer here. Having to see it happen is irrelevant, as are your last two questions, although they are good questions in and of themselves. Indeed, they are worth spending a lifetime pondering.

As you are fond of links, I will do the same. N.T. Wright’s The Resurrection of the Son of God is probably the closest thing to a definitive work (for now) on the subject of the Resurrection.

Please find two related references ( more) which point out that it (the “resurrection”) didnt happen.

Why do you choose to believe this?
Were you “there” to see “it” happen?
What do you really know about anything, other than what is happening in the present moment?
Who or what are you?
