The resurrection - my theory

[Alan]

Y'all

I'd like to share with you my theory about the resurrection thingy for which we get a holiday at this time.

It is entirely possible, indeed likely, that the Romans nailed this Jesus to the cross for being a pest and inciting trouble. Probably not an unusual occurrence for the time.

I speculate, that after he had been up there for a while, and near his end, his mates (the disciples) sidled up to the chief guard with a suggestion that for a few sheckels that they might, you know, pull his nails and dump him in the cave. It had been a tough week for the guard, and an early night off and a trip to the happy house was very appealing indeed.

All went well and after a couple of days the mates returned in the dead of night and spirited him off - so to speak. The jig was nearly up when a teary Mary M found him in the garden of Gethsemane. Imagine the scene. “Fer christ sake Mary not now…I’m outta here.”

Anyways, he and his mates ran off to a north coast resort for a quiet life and tried to make a dollar out of the story. Gospels they called them.

Have a happy holiday

lol great interpretation :)

Myself, I am pretty sure there never was a jesus, and he is just a fictional character to replace the same concept as Osiris, Mithra and other gods, in an attempt to 'jazz up' some varying belief systems of the time into a more modern cohesive one, bring together a lot of different myths of the area.

Outside that, a lot of what happened to jesus in the story, is one of commonality in judaism in a conceptual sense. Being excommunicated was 'dead' to the people, and you would be turned away, only an appeal to the 'Father' or head rabbi, would have you 'born again'.

But outside this, I don't think that is true either .. I honestly think jesus is just a conceptual figure, building off John the baptist symbology in the old testament, which in turn is based off the basics of the sun gods from egyptian mythology, and its diversification thoughout the region.
