bgdawg: There is actually no contemporary documentation that your Jesus existed, and the part about the resurrection was added a couple _centuries_ after whatever person may or may not have existed. Mark is the only ONLY _potentially_ contemporary account, and it has been added to since then. It originally ended with Jesus's death.
I am an historian and Classical scholar by training and inclination. I will not quibble religion in these forums, but I will protest when things are stated as fact when they are flatly not true.
Lack of documentation does not invalidate your religion. But religion does not equal completely factual history.
