Thinking Critically about the Resurrection of Jesus, Volume 1: DRAFT Chapters

 I have been working on this book for over five years:

Thinking Critically about the Resurrection of Jesus, Volume 1

Previously, it was divided into ten chapters, and was growing to well over 400 pages (of single-spaced text).

Because this book is filled with careful critical analysis of arguments and careful evaluation of arguments, I believe that most people would feel overwhelmed by such a book being over 400 pages long.  So, I decided to focus the first volume on just one of the two main issues that are covered in my ten draft chapters: The Failure of Peter Kreeft's Case for the resurrection of Jesus.  

I have removed three long chapters from Volume 1, and will use those three chapters as the primary material for Volume 2 of this series. Volume 2 will focus on this idea: The Resuscitation of the Swoon Theory.   That leaves Volume 1 with just seven chapters, and shortens this first volume to a much more reasonable 257 pages (of single-spaced text).

Here are the current DRAFT chapters of 

Thinking Critically about the Resurrection of Jesus  Volume 1: The Failure of Peter Kreeft's Case

Chapter 1: Introduction

Chapter 2: Careful Argument Analysis

Chapter 3: Objections to the Swoon Theory Based on John
