My last question in the convert me to atheism challenge. Often I hear you have zero evidence for the resurrection of Jesus Christ, well one of strongest pieces of evidences we use in 2016 is the testimony of an eye witness account. Furthermore, in 1 Corinthians 15 over 500 people saw the risen Saviour so as C.S Lewis said was Jesus a liar, lunatic or Lord?
heck out the stories of Simon the zealot, James son of Alphaeus, Luke, Barnabas, Thomas, Bartholomew, Jude, Peter, Mark, Andrew, Mattias, James (Jesus’ brother), Philip and Stephen. Real people, who were real eyewitnesses of the resurrection!

and by the way we do NOT know scientifically that people cannot die for a lie people die for lies all the time. there are about 750 people from the Salem witch trials who claimed they were witches so that they would be burned instead of others. they lied to die. have you heard of the lying martyr. it is a person who tells a lie to be killed for it to go down in infamy. their were about 23 people who actually claimed to be the zodiac killer and we're put to death only for everyone to find out that they weren't the zodiac killer. people lie all the time for the sole purpose of being killed. so I don't know where you got the backwards science that it is impossible to die over a lie because people have done it INTENTIONALLY since the dawn of man.
so because ONE person CLAIMS 500 people saw it happen those are all eye witness accounts? no absolutely not. I can sit here and say that I know 500 people who saw godzilla. they all saw him and they were killed for what they said they saw. does that make it true? no! even if their actually are truly 500 people who claim they saw Jesus resurrect I can easily round up 500 people who claim to have been abducted by aliens, 500 more who claim to have seen big foot, and 500 more who claim they saw the Chewbacabra. Doesn't make their claims true. and people die for lies all the time dude. your 10 questions have failed. I have answered every one of them. will you become an atheist now? no you won't because you cannot comprehend basic logic. if you did have enough brain capacity to understand basic logic then you wouldn't even ask these questions because the answers are obvious. also the bible cannot be used as evidence. it is a claim. you are basically saying "I believe in the bible because the bible says it's real." that is the same as saying "I believe in the cat in the hat because Dr suess says he's real." It's idiotic. you have failed sir, your logic is flawed and your questions are moronic. have a nice day. give me a shout out w
hen you decide to look at reality.
It wasn't just Jesus who rose from the dead: Matthew 27:52-53 Why no one noticed the zombie apocalypse and wrote about it elsewhere?
How would we go about determining who the 500 people were in order to check out their testimony? For that matter, how would someone at the time go about doing that?
1 person wrote a book that 500 hundred people say it but you don't know if that's true because 1 person wrote it
