    Christ is neither the first nor the last reported instance of razing from the dead. That doesn't make this story true, but it should place it within context. According to Christian theology you are supposed to be able to raise someone from the dead with sufficient faith.

    Now, as has been noted, HoreTore refuses to accept the existence of any form of God, that's fine. what isn't fine is that he refuses to accept that anyone else accepts that.

    Ergo, he assumes every "religious" person is practicing congnative dissonance in claiming to believe in God.

    HoreTore, we aren't and the continued insinuation is irritating.
