8 THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS

8 THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS
Note:8@@@@@@@@@ NOTE DA SISTEMARE

Note | Location: 1,968
Affinchè gesù sia dio ci aspettiamo che 1. firmi la sua opera e 2 faccia qualcosa in grado di redimere i ns. peccati. La resurezione implica 1. un miracolo (firma) e 2. la morte di un dio (retribuzione).Resurezione come firma divina del suo operatoEvidenze empiriche: la lista dei testimoniX' la resurezione di domenica non è un' aggiunta postumaNon c' è confirmation bias: la resurezione è una sorpresa5 altrrnative alla resurezione: 1 Gesù non morì 2. Ci fu uno scambio di tombe 3 Il corpo fu trafugato x impedirne il culto 4 il corpo fu trafugato dai ladri 5. il corpo fu trafugato dai discepoli x prevenirne la profanazioneI 2 criteri x individuare un profeta autenticoPoichè esiste una minima prob a priori che gesù sia dio, non necessitano grandi evidenze per credere che gesù sia risorto (analogia con l' uomo alto 3 metri)
