Not a proof, but thought provokingApr 12, 2004
I found this book to be a fascinating read. In the first part, Bishop Spong looks at the events around the first Easter, and makes a case that something significant must have happened.In the second part, Spong delves deeper in the New Testament to see what happened. Looking beyond a literal meaning he raises interesting questions and draws thought provoking conclusions.

HE DID THE IMPOSSIBLE!May 07, 2000
I was raised Anglo Catholic. I was also taught that Faith is a gift. I was also taught that the Resurrection of Christ must be believed even though there is no way to prove it. Well, Bishop Spong did the impossible! First he offers us a very deep (and quite probable) speculation of what was going on between the crucifixion and resurrection. He also goes beyond the Scriptures and speculates on what may have been going through the Apostles' minds when all this happened. But the greatest thing Spong does is that he actually proves the resurrection. What he does is he shows you what happened BEFORE Easter, and then he shows you what happened AFTER Easter. In my opinion, even the most obtuse person would be able to see that if one looks at the picture before and after, the resurrection HAD TO HAVE HAPPENED. This belongs in the library of ANY Roman Catholic or Anglo Catholic. I also feel that Bishop Spong hit on something that THOUSANDS of priests, bishops, and cardinals would have loved to stumble upon. Bishop Spong did the church a WONDERFUL service when he wrote this book!
