Tag: empty tomb

There is little point in setting this argument up for success. There are some merits for the empty tomb, which are independent of the women witnesses, but when one considered the overall evidence against the empty tomb story it becomes a futile endeavor.

It seems weird to me that in order to promote virtue and good character I must weaken the historical argument for the resurrection, and that to promote the historical argument for the resurrection I must weaken my devotion to virtue and good character.

A story of a few women coming upon an empty tomb may not be that exciting. Normally we might think that all they have done is discovered a grave robbery, or a mistaken burial plot.
