$4,000.00 Reward (The Resurrection from Mr. Jackson)

MCGILL(3/12)
There is a Fundamentalist Bible teacher at my work named Michael Jackson 
(no not the performer of "thriller"). Mr. Jackson and I often get into 
conversation about Bible errancy. He believes the Bible is the Word of 
God, I do not. He is a Christian, I am a Deist/Agnostic. Mr. Jackson has 
went to Bible seminary and preaches often here in the San Diego area. On 
one occasion we were discussing the sun standing still in the Book Of 
Joshua, and he told me that NASA scientist had found a missing day of the 
earth with their computers, I doubted that and he said he would bring me 
the article on it. I said I would like to see it. Weeks passed and he 
never brought it to me. I did a search on the Internet and found out that 
story of the missing day being found by NASA scientist was a myth, false, 
even Christian groups recognized this. I printed the material and showed 
it to him. He didn't have much to say about that, other than he thought 
(past tense now) it was true (about NASA finding a missing day). 

I printed out the $4,000 resurrection reward and other posts from Errancy 
and gave it to him, challenging him to harmonize the different accounts 
of the Gospel and resurrection. He read the material, made notes on them, 
and gave me some papers called "Harmony Of The Gospels". Mr. Jackson 
claimed the Gospels were Harmonized a long time ago. I said I doubt that, 
show me. After he gave me the papers he asked me to post his comments and 
what the "Harmony Of The Gospels" said about the resurrection through the 
Ascension without changing anything, I said I would and I will print it 
out for him as well as any responses or replies to it. Well here is 
"Harmony Of Gospels, With Jesus in the resurrection through the Ascension 
in 12 events". Looking at it I can see many problems, things left out 
etc...but I will leave it up to the other members of the list to attack 
it first, then I will jump in.
