Yes - but there is no primary source evidence that any of what's written in contradictory (to one another) gospels is historically accurate & not wildly embellished. It's the difference between faith & fact imo. One can believe the words, but the evidence for specific events is lacking. 1/2

The earliest gospel is Mark and was written around the 2nd Temple destruction. ~30ish years post-Jesus. Even that gospel is not a primary source (Mark was not hanging with JC) and you need to employ faith to take the events as laid out in the text as factual. 2/2

Imagine if I wrote now arguing Bush was president in 1995, & no other recording can be found, will I get away with it? No cuz there would be a lot of ppl still living that would refute it. U think just cuz it's old times ppl could get away with claiming resurrection? Even Thomas didn't blv that.
