The Empty Tomb Myth

I often watch Rabbi Tovia Singer, also Jews for Judaism on YouTube, because they do a great job of tearing down christian doctrine, & debunking the claims that jesus was prophesied in the old testament.

Whenever you debate a christian on the resurrection, most of them will come up with the argument of "well how do you explain the empty tomb"?

Of course there are many explanations you can come up with for a supposed empty tomb, ranging from the story is pure mythology so nothing to explain, or the body was moved or stolen, or that the body was left hanging on the cross & never buried in the 1st place, or the body was spirited away by aliens, among many other explanations you COULD think of. However none of these explanations are likely to convince the vast majority of christians.

However the following explanation by Rabbi Tovia Singer is one of the best I have heard for making the case that the empty tomb is a purely mythical story, & I think it could cause SOME christians who are sincerely seeking to really think about the story:

Hey, I was trying to save up

Hey, I was trying to save up for a new pair of studio headphones and needed something to unwind with in the evenings. I found this by chance while browsing late, started slow, ran into a rough losing streak and almost closed it, then decided to raise the risk slightly and things finally shifted on n1 casino canada https://n1casinoca.com/ I stuck with Aviator because the timing kept me focused and every round felt deliberate. With bonuses clearly aimed at players from Canada, it felt fair overall, so I’d recommend it if you like games where patience can suddenly pay off.

Greetings! A distant cousin

Greetings! A distant cousin mentioned this to me during a family call and I figured I would see what the fuss was about. I have been losing quite a bit lately and was feeling very frustrated with my lack of luck. Navigating spinking was simple and the variety was quite impressive. I ended up winning a significant amount that covered all my past stakes. I am very satisfied with the profit and the whole session.

Είχα μια εβδομάδα σκέτη τρέλα

Είχα μια εβδομάδα σκέτη τρέλα με τις υποχρεώσεις και ήθελα κάπως να ξεσκάσω το Σαββατοκύριακο χωρίς να βγω έξω. Θυμήθηκα που μου είχε πει ένας συνάδελφος για το [url=https://rockyspin.com.gr]rocky spin[/url] και μπήκα να δω τι λέει από ρουλέτα. Για τα δεδομένα στην Ελλάδα, το περιβάλλον είναι πολύ καθαρό και δίκαιο. Είχα έμπνευση στα νούμερα, μου βγήκαν δύο καλά πονταρίσματα και έφυγα με ένα σεβαστό ποσό που με βοήθησε πολύ με τα έξοδα του μήνα.
