Hi Joshua,
I am sorry, I dont have time right now so I will post later. But a few things before I go...
If today your prophet muhamed, was alive and then killed, how many muslims would try to preserve the body after his death?
None. We bury our dead almost immidietly. Prophet's burial was the one which was delayed for the longest time, 2 or 3 days. Nobody would have allowed his body to be kind of "saved".
I will reply to your post later. But the most important argument in my post was that Jesus (pbuh) was not resurrected. He didnt show any signs of being resurrected. Being resurrected means, being a spirit.
I would also like to thank you for keeping the ground rules of this thread. Thanks a lot.
Bye for now... Ali
