Start with Christianity
An intelligent seeker should start where a claim can actually be tested.
On a napkin
- 1Christianity hangs on a public event in history — the resurrection — not a private mood.
- 2If Christ is not raised, Paul says the whole thing is vain. That is a falsifiable nerve.
- 3Other paths can be beautiful and still not offer that kind of check.
- 4Starting here is not bias. It is taking the most testable claim first.
Say this
I am not asking you to switch off your mind. I am asking you to put the resurrection on the table and see whether it can bear the weight. If it cannot, Christianity is done. If it can, everything else is worth a second look.
“If Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins.”
