OK, so now we know that when Richard tells us about Bible stories, he's not necessarily talking about what's in the Bible; he may be talking about stuff he made up. But he's not going to tell us this up front; he'll tell us only if otherwise we all assume he's telling lies about what's in the Bible.
And one more time: Luke does not say that Mary M. or any of the other women saw the risen Christ. (That's assuming Richard is referring to the guy to whom the Gospel of Luke is attributed, rather than to some dude he knows named Luke). > Your previous posts have said Mary M. saw the risen Christ "hovering > in the air." None of the Gospels say that. > Nobody said the Gospels say that the risen Christ was hovering in the air. Richard said that - that''s what Richard thinks a "risen soul" does- hover in the air. Risen means for the soul to rise up. > Nobody is arguing that Mary M. wasn't the first to see him, as related > in the Gospel of John. That has never been in dispute > Mary Magdalene was the first person to see the risen Christ. "All the four gospels agree on this: Matthew 28:1, Mark 16:1, Luke 24:10, and John 20:1." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Magdalene http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Magdalene
