Since it seems there are quite a few rabid atheists on these boards, I'm curious about how you refute the resurrection. More specifically, do you base your decision to refute the resurrection more on philosophical speculation (miracles are impossible, etc.), or historical inquiry?
Also, I see a lot of people ask for scientific evidence of the resurrection. Does not the very nature of the idea of the resurrection make it unable to scientifically prove? Wouldn't it be more viable to look at it like a trial, by which I mean attempt to prove not scientifically, but beyond reasonably doubt historically?
I'm not looking for your specific reasons on why you don't believe the resurrection, why theists are stupid, why the laws of the universe forbid it or whatever... I'm curious as to how you go about refuting the idea of a resurrection.
