Happy Easter, 2026!Here Than and I discuss three alternative "explanations" for the resurrection evidence which Brian Blais claims are just as good as the actual resurrection for explaining the data. These are Kamil Gregor's pareidolia suggestion:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FWyZRnI4e8James Fodor's RHBS theory:https://jamesfodor.com/2017/04/02/the-resurrection-of-jesus-explaining-the-historical-facts-debate-notes/And Paulogia's minimal witnesses theory:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLpdBEstCHhmU6oteDUNXsyXAQsJFYe2TKWe explain why they are definitely not just as good.Here is my post on a maximalist use of the conversion of Paul, which we mention:https://lydiaswebpage.blogspot.com/2022/09/a-maximalist-use-of-conversion-of-paul.htmlHere is a free-to-read version of my published paper on ad hocness:https://lydiamcgrew.com/wp-content/uploads/AdhocarticleforActaAnalytica.pdfHere again is my most recent post on dependence, independence, and the resurrection, where I discuss these issues of greater relative unity given the resurrection than given its negation:https://lydiaswebpage.blogspot.com/2025/12/the-resurrection-independence-and.htmlMy continued thanks to @TestifyApologetics for help with this video series.
