Was Jesus Actually Resurrected? (Infographics Show Response)

The greatest mystery of all is the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The Catholic church has been built off the faith that Jesus was crucified for our sins, died and was buried, then on the third day he rose from the dead and visited his Apostles. What really happened on that third day that gave birth to an entire religion? Find out right now!

Bingo. I've heard it mentioned that looking at the birth and rise of Mormonism is analogous to watching the birth and rise of Christianity. Except with Mormonism, we have a little better picture with it being much more recent in history. Many people like to point to factors in Mormonism and yell "fraud"!

@James Patrick Most of what you just said is misinterpretation of the Jewish language into English. Also he never said to hate their own family members in comparison to him. The disciples of their own free will chose to do those things. all he said was follow me.

[@kennethmays8059]

@James Patrick The language Jesus spoke was not Hebrew but Aramaic (might be spelled wrong). And it's the "original text we have today" that are in Greek that's not to say earlier editions in Aramaic didn't exist and then were mistranslated to Greek in the following years and decades not saying you're wrong just saying your opening argument is flawed, many scholars believe that the oldest text we have are copies of earlier works so their is room for mistranslation there. Your second argument that any translation errors should have been caught by now seeing as we found many others translation errors in modern biblical scholarship ( the Reed Sea and the Red Sea being one that comes to mind) is much better but without the originals there is no way to be certain.

[@fakename3208]

I think it’s different given that Jesus was a real person who was really crucified. It all just hinges on the resurrection which is at least interesting that it’s still a debate and not simply brushed aside. A little different than some guy looking into a hat or whatever

[@arcguardian]

@@fakename3208 exactly.

[@mikhailhunter5277]

The issue here around the 22 minute mark, is that none of disciples believed Jesus would resurrect. The reason we have the hallucination theory is because... 1.A man name Jesus did exist and secular historians agree on that. 2. Claims to have seen a risen version of Jesus has been substantiated. And this is the opinion of atheist historians, Jesus did exist and people claimed to have seen him after his death. So now we are left with a question. Did they see him? Or Did they thought they saw him? We are going off the assumption that they thought they saw him, because once again. The claims of seeing Jesus on that Sunday is true. So now the actual debate is did what they saw was real? And our best explaination, is grief hallucination? The disciples all had the exact hallucinations, about the same person, coming back to life and telling them the same thing. And 100s of other people also hallucinated the same thing?? 2 people alone having the same exact hallucination is a stretch. 2 people hallucinating at the same time is also a stretch, especially when the conditions for hallucinations don't exist

[@antiksur8883]

100s of other people is the claim by an author. "One person saw 100s of other people" is the truth. Also, "tell the same thing"? The Gospels literally copy from each other. Even if I were to accept that all the Gospels say the same thing, it's not that surprising. Also, they don't say the same things. And we have contemporary examples of such mass hysteria. Like the people who saw Elvis after his death. Lastly, you haven't established that ressurections are possible. Thus, the probability of a resurrection is 0. No matter how improbable shared hallucinations are, it is non-zero. You do the math and tell me which is more plausible.

[@manthedan3096]

@@antiksur8883You state resurrections are impossible because you have a presupposition against miracles. If many people resurrected throughout history could resurrect then the claims about Jesus would not be special.

[@belterglj]

What really bothers me about this "infographic" is that something that (in my understanding) should be unbiased, is the most biased apologetic screed you're likely to find.

[@SoulSukkur]

To be fair, if you look up "Jesus resurrection evidence," the results are overwhelmingly apologetic, for obvious reasons. Infographic Show could have absolutely found solid counterarguments if it searched hard enough, but think back to how it opened: "One out of three people on Earth identify as Christian." They have no incentive to go through all that extra work. Besides, these apologetic sources already feature "counterarguments" which can be used to appear impartial and bolster the argument. So, I'd only be willing to accuse the Infographics Show of being uncritical. While I'd absolutely trust a CGP Grey or Kurtzgesagt over this, it isn't easy to tell the difference in their epistemology, especially for a typical casual viewer.

[@belterglj]

@@SoulSukkur I agree that they are uncritical. If they wanted to maintain an appearance of impartiality, they could have at least thrown in an occasional mention of alternate theories.

[@SoulSukkur]

@@belterglj But they did, frequently. The problem is that they likely got their alternatives from the *same* apologetic sources, which means each alternative was packaged alongside its respective counterargument and dismissal. I can imagine The Infographics Show didn't even realize they were referring to strawmen. Although, for the record, I am explicitly choosing to give them the benefit of the doubt, given their seemingly neutral history.

The irony in this approach to plotting a story being called Deus Ex Machina is worthy of at least a smirk :D

[@Nocturnalux]

Pretty much. It often lends itself to terrible writing and when taken too far, overtakes the character. This is how Kira from Gundam Seed Destiny earned the fan-nickname of “Kira Jesus Yamato” and variations thereof. He simply becomes invincible, surviving situations he simply could not possibly have have, with some rather unconvincing attempts at explaining this. Plot Shield Armor is extremely common in mecha anime but this case is so egregious- and characters in-universe reactions add to the weirdness- that the name stuck, even after all these years. How can Kira survive a nuclear denotation when he is sitting on the actual bomb, give or take? He just does.

At the end when he said "something split the Jewish faith in two" he's making the absolutely insane assumption that Judaism was not already split into many different factions, similar to how christianity and Islam are today. He also doesn't mention the oldest christians had disagreements on core aspects of the faith including resurrection. Judaism wasn't split in two, it was just a few Jews who were sick of waiting for a messiah chose their favorite religious teacher Jesus to fill the role. It didn't matter to them that Jesus didn't fulfill the requirements the messiah was prophesized to fulfill.

The need for large councils was due to the many factions in early christianity. The first 7 of which were to determine church doctrine.

[@Thundawich]

Well even if you don't consider what christianity became or the messiah angle or anything, the core of Jesus' teachings was that judaism was far too legalistic and we should chill on all the rules a bit. That kind of idea wasn't unique to Jesus, and was already heavily dividing much of Judaism.

Bart Ehrman addressed the accurate recitation of scripture and found that's not actually true.

[@_catulus]

Bart Ehrman has a bad habit of telling half-truths. For example, his claim in his work "Misquoting Jesus" that the New Testament contains "thousands of inconsistencies." What he neglects to mention (at least to my knowledge) that in the field of textual criticism and analysis, there are multiple categories of inconsistencies (variants) which are either significant variants or insignificant. Significant variants are discrepancies that damage the story's reliability (For example, if one manuscript were to have noted that Jesus claimed to be the Messiah, whereas another did not). Insignificant variants are minor details like spelling, grammar, inverted words, or even differing details (for example, if one manuscript said Jesus was leaving Jericho whereas another said he was entering Jericho). This is important because (again, to my knowledge) Ehrman does not inform his readers that even though the New Testament has thousands of variants, the overwhelming majority are (or at the very least, would be) categorized as insignificant. Insignificant variants are actually helpful in establishing the credibility of a document as it indicates the manuscripts were not plagiarized.
