Obviously!in a sense.
that is an opinion, yes.
im saying it is illogical to claim the resurrection as a historical event when modern historical scholarship operates under the presupposition of naturalism.
Are you claiming it as illogical, or illogical to claim it as historical under current rules? i.e. do you claim it illogical just b/c the modern rules say so?
that's what i'm saying.
you can say what you wish. whether what you say has the support and weight of modern historical scholarship is another thing altogether.
Yes, but do you? and what about the question?
you can think what you wish. whether what you think has the support and weight of modern historical scholarship is another thing altogether.
What do you think? Conversation/discussion???
in a sense. it relates back to the quote i provided earlier:
The reason for that isn’t because historians don’t believe in supernatural beings: some do, some don’t. It’s that we can’t agree on how to evaluate claims of supernatural intervention.
you can have faith in the supernatural, but the difficulties arise when trying to form an objective agreement in the evaluation of claims relating to supernatural. these difficulties don't exist when we presuppose naturalism. considering that forming an objective agreement on past events is what modern historical scholarship attempts to do, there are clear and obvious problems when the supernatural is not excluded.
So its the lack of evaluation consensus that is actually the problem?
may be. idk what will happen in 20 years.
Do you believe in the supernatural? If so what? If not is it only b/c current modern bias says we don't have agreed rules to evaluate the supernatural?
