Is the Resurrection of Jesus a Historical Fact? Atheists Respond to EVERY Resurrection Claim - Part 1 - (Trent Dougherty on Pints With Aquinas Reaction)

expect is like oh yeah i know jesus didn't like come out a lot i know y'all didn't see him but trust us in private he came to the three of us you can take our word for it you don't get anything like that at all you get no defensiveness you get no artifice that's very hard to explain in any other

way outside of its veracity g'day everybody today is holy thursday we are now entering the triduum so this will be a special easter episode i'm going to sit down with philosopher dr We need a bookshelf.

We need to talk about why we have very good historical reasons for thinking that the resurrection of Jesus Christ did in fact happen.

I know we know this as Christians by faith, but we're going to show why it's a reasonable proposition to believe based on historical evidence.

That was quick.

That was quick.

I feel like we've made it in longer.

This is 45 seconds.

I feel like Brian Holdsworth, we're like five seconds in.

I feel like that sentence encapsulates so much of apologetics, which is like, well, obviously we know it's a fact and the source is whatever.

Today, we're

just really interested in the truth here, folks.

And we're going to backfill with historical reasons.

And we can't get to a different conclusion.

Yeah, I mean, we'll see where they go.

I mean, I'm going to be charitable.

Like, this is his intro.

He's stating his thesis.

Like, fair enough.

But yeah, I mean, deciding that you can have confidence in any sort of miracle, especially one that happened that long ago, as definitive and the only conclusion is going to be a hard sell for me.

So we'll see what they do.

And also to clarify, if you're listening and you want to believe in the resurrection, have fun.

I think the central question that we'll be grappling with is, the resurrection is a historical fact, is the title of the video.

That does a sober analysis of the historical data lead a reasonable academic to the conclusion of the resurrection.

Not, do you find joy in the resurrection? Not, do you find it compelling? Not, do you believe it on faith? Yeah, not do you believe it on faith, but rather like, Historically, what can we say? Yeah.
