      In the simplest possible terms: people do not come back from the dead. That is an impossible thing.

          Logic and reason from billions of people’s shared experiences on the earth.

          Feel free to die and return and prove me wrong.

            So, you’re saying Jesus didn’t rise from the dead because it’s impossible. And that we know it’s impossible because nobody’s risen from the dead, which should include Jesus because you reject that he rose from the dead because it’s impossible.

            Isn’t this circular reasoning?

              Sure. Whenever discussing religion one will fall into circular reasoning, because faith itself is circular reasoning. One cannot use logic or reason to get out of a position that logic and reason did not get them into.

                  And forgive me for my use of “impossible” earlier, that’s not my position.

                  “Highly improbable” is a way better qualifier.

                  Not going to edit it because it ruins the context.

                    Well, it is highly improbable, because only a few people have, either by this aforementioned person or himself. And it requires supernatural powers.

                    Then our belief in anything can be put to circular reasoning
