Resurrection: An Amusing Response

• Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ]

No, not funny as in a deliberate joke - more of a sad joke, really.

Here's an "amusing" response I got from someone when I presented to them
Dan Barker's Easter challenge.....


One contradiction, quit all the back talk. Just one.
What do you want to know about the resurrection some moron couldn't
find out by reading the Bible?
There were a group of ladies coming to anoint the Body of Christ, The
angels presented themselves to two of them, then Christ presented
Himself to Mary Magdalene. Who went to go tell the Disciples. Later
the Disciples met Jesus. Pick up a Bible Austin, Dan, whoever. Where
is the contradiction in the resurrection? Tell me where there is a
problem instead of prentending to be deductive and run away from what
the Bible is telling you- For all have sinned and come short of the
glory of God. Period. The Resurrection isn't your problem, it's the
fact that the Bible is against man and man is against the Bible. You
are a sinner, a dead spirit, on your way to a literal hell without
Christ. And that whole thing wounds your childlike pride.

Just thought some of you might enjoy seeing how little has changed in the
simple-minded defenses that keep being offered....
