Re: The Case Against the Resurrection (Bart D. Ehrman)

I'm assuming this is a response to that arch enema of the faith, aka trapper. I also assume that he is making common cause with someone who is challenging Jesus' resurrection - arguably the central pillar of Christianity.

Anyone who doubts the historicity of the resurrection should read 'Who Moved The Stone?' by Frank Morrison. The backstory to this book is itself fascinating. Morrison was a practising lawyer who reasoned (correctly as it happens) that if he could disprove the resurrection, he would also destroy the foundation on which Christianity was built. He was also an atheist. I imagine most of you will have guessed by now that the book he ended up writing was very different from the one he set out to write.

I don't know if the book is still in print, but it should be fairly easy to find second-hand if not. After you have finished reading all the trapper trash on the resurrection, I thoroughly recommend this book as the perfect antidote to his poison.
