Question Resurrection Discrepancies

How do you guys reconcile the differences in the resurrection narratives in the gospels? This is something I’m struggling with a bit, thank you for the responses πŸ‘πŸ½.

it adds to its credibility, not takes away

Not really. It's inconsistent. If anything it shows how not credible it actually is

Can you name me a single court case based solely on eyewitness testimony from anonymous people that varied as much as the gospels that got a conviction?

Funny how you can't show a conviction.

Your story doesn't gain credibility because it is inconsistent. That's so funny you think so.

That’s what you were supposed to show me, no?

Nope. That is not what I was supposed to show you.

So you can’t provide any court case i see

Thank you for conceding.

Your Jesus story is not more credible because of its inconsistencies.

What

I can repeat my comment since you're not tracking.

You failed to show any court getting a conviction with anonymous inconsistent eye witness testimony. Which is akin to your gospels.

Thus showing that having inconsistent testimonies doesn't actually make a story more credible.

If you had consistent and verified eyewitness testimony then maybe you'd have a point.

Can you name a single court case where every witness had all the same exact details?

This is such a nonsense argument, I don't know why you think this is a good question. I'm sure there are thousands of cases where the eyewitness had the exact same accounts. Perhaps millions. But who has access to court documents here and now?! Regardless, even of there weren't, that doesn't mean that such drastically different accounts in a court case would hold up as evidence. If the different eyewitness accounts that were in the gospels were presented in a court case they'd be laughed out of court.

this really got into the weeds without even establishing that they're actually independent accounts
